Given all the controversy that went on this week with Eden Hazard, this type of display from Brentford was really inevitable.

By Adrian Collins

With their tongues firmly in their cheeks, the ball boys at Brentford were all lined up to form a guard of honour to welcome Chelsea in their FA Cup clash today.

Given Hazard's recent issues with the ball boy at Swansea, Chelsea may have to get ready to get a bit more of this type of wind up when they travel in the next few weeks.

The incident made headlines for Hazard and turned the young Charlie Morgan into an instant Twitter celebrity within the space of a few minutes.

Man City legend Uwe Rossler is the Brentford manager, and we wonder how thrilled the German was about this idea going ahead on match day...

It didn't seem to affect them too badly as they were able to get the lead twice against Chelsea and secured a lucrative replay with a 2-2 draw.
