“It’s very rare to have 90 perfect minutes, but the theme of the season is that we’ve given too many soft goals away. Before the last six games it has been less, but we had a little setback,” said Frank after the 4-2 defeat to Newcastle United on the final day.
“But overall, this season has been a success. We are ambitious, we want more and we are dreaming of more, but the foundation we are standing on is good. I am excited about the future.”

Frank admitted he was frustrated to end the campaign with a defeat but praised his side’s character.
Vitaly Janelt and Yoane Wissa netted after the break as the Bees sought to overturn a three-goal deficit at Gtech Community Stadium, but Bruno Guimarães added the Magpies’ fourth to dampen any hopes of a dramatic comeback.
“It was entertaining but it’s more fun to end on the right end of the result,” said the Bees boss.
“Until the first goal I thought we were the better side. Then they scored and momentum changed a tiny bit.
“Then they scored two goals. It was two mistakes from us; that happens unfortunately.
“During the second half the players showed a character and mentality that was impressive in many ways.
“We managed to come back into the game, and we were very close to getting something out of it.”
