Starts both matches for Germany
Schade started both of Germany's opening Nations League fixtures under coach Jurgen Klopp, playing 64 minutes against the Netherlands and 65 minutes against Greece.
Analysis: Schade received significant minutes across Germany's first two matches under manager Jurgen Klopp and created an opportunity for Younes Ebnoutalib during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Greece. His involvement follows a productive start to the Premier League season with Brentford, where he has scored three goals and created three chances through five appearances. The winger's regular international starts further underline his prominent role heading back into club action.
Nets brace
Schade scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) and one cross (one accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus AFC Bournemouth.
Analysis: Schade put in a standout performance Saturday, scoring twice to keep Brentford level while adding two shots on target and winning five aerials. He's opened the season in strong form with three goals in four matches, totaling five shots on target, three key passes, and three successful dribbles an effective presence in midfield for Brentford.
Scores twice vs. Cherries
Schade scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) and one cross (one accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against AFC Bournemouth.
Analysis: Schade found the back of the net in the first half with a header and later doubled his tally with a second-half strike. The explosive winger had gone quiet in the previous match against Sunderland, but now he has three goals in his last three EPL starts. He has 10 shots (five on target) and three chances created in his four appearances so far, emerging as a key player for Brentford's attack, especially at a time when Igor Thiago has been struggling massively.
Struggles to make impact
Schade recorded no stats in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Sunderland.
Analysis: Schade struggled to provide a direct scoring threat Saturday, finishing 90 minutes without an attempt and creating only one chance. The winger's pace remains useful for stretching defenses, but he'll need to translate those physical qualities into more regular involvement around goal. With just one goal contribution early in the campaign, increasing his shooting and chance-creation volume would make his role on the wing considerably more productive.
Scores first goal of season
Schade scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Leeds United.
Analysis: Schade scored Brentford's opener with a sublime flick from Keane Lewis-Potter's near-post delivery in the 41st minute for his first Premier League goal of the season, before being denied what appeared to be a penalty in the second half when Jayden Bogle appeared to step on his foot as he went down inside the box. He finished with three shots including one on goal and one chance created across 88 minutes before being replaced by Aaron Hickey. Schade now has one goal from his opening two Premier League appearances.
Five shots in opener
Schade registered five shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur.
Analysis: Schade was very active in Saturday's season opener but was unable to join in on the score sheet despite his team-high five shot attempts. He also managed one chance created on the attack. Despite not scoring, Schade should have plenty of opportunities as the season progresses based on how potent the Brentford attack looked on Saturday. The attack looked completely in sync and should provide Schade lots of chances to score goals this season.
Scores in finale
Schade scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Liverpool.
Analysis: Schade ended the season on a high note, scoring in the finale during the draw with Liverpool. He ends the campaign as a consistent starter with eight goals and three assists in league action. He also created a career-high 28 chances largely playing off the left wing, though occasionally slotting as a secondary striker.
Wins penalty to open scoring
Schade generated four shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Everton.
Analysis: Schade drew a foul from Jordan Pickford in the opening few minutes of the game. Igor Thiago went on to score the penalty and put Brentford 1-0 ahead. He has scored seven goals and provided three assists this season. This is also just the fifth game this season that he has taken four or more shots.
Scores in 4-3 win
Schade scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus Burnley.
Analysis: Scahde scored Brentford's third goal as they took a 3-0 lead. The game then swung to 3-3, and then Brentford scored a late winner. The winget started his first game since returning from suspension and scored his seventh goal of the season, although this was his first goal of 2026.
Suspension over
Schade is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward.
Analysis: Schade has ended his time on the sidelines due to a suspension, with the attacker not set to play against Brighton in their next contest. He is a regular starter with six goals and three assists in 23 appearances (22 starts), a crucial player for the club when fit.
Red card Sunday
Schade was sent off in the first half of Sunday's match against Aston Villa due to dangerous play.
Analysis: Schade would be sent off just ahead of halftime Sunday, with the attacker sliding in on a rough challenge to earn a red card. This will lead to a one-game ban at least, not an option again until facing Arsenal on Feb. 12. This will leave the club without their starter on the left side of the field, with Keane Lewis-potter a possible option to replace him in the starting XI.
Minimal impact in loss
Schade registered two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 defeat against Nottingham Forest.
Analysis: Similar to Igor Thiago, Schade was isolated against the opposing defense and was unable to make a big impact across the board. The German winger will remain a key player for Brentford's attacking intentions in a tough road matchup at Aston Villa on Sunday, Feb. 1.
Back-to-back assist in win
Schade assisted once to go with three shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and four chances created in Wednesday's 3-0 victory versus Sunderland.
Analysis: Schade set the tone early with a delicate lob that Robin Roefs tipped over inside the first minute. He remained Brentford's most direct ball carrier on the left flank, repeatedly forcing Sunderland to retreat and defend while facing their own goal. His effort that struck the woodwork led to the rebound assist for Igor Thiago's second goal. This was Schade's second assist in the last two games and also his second best creative performance of the season, after previously recording a season high four chances created against the Black Cats.
Assists in Sunday's win
Schade assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 victory over Everton.
Analysis: Schade recorded his second assist of the season Sunday as he set up Igor Thiago's second goal in the 51st minute to take the 3-0 lead. It was the only chance he created in the match and he added two shots on the attack. He was subbed off in the 64th minute for Keane Lewis-Potter.
Scores hat-trick in win
Schade scored three goals to go with six shots (five on goal) in Saturday's 4-1 victory over AFC Bournemouth.
Analysis: Schade delivered a huge performance in Saturday's win over Bournemouth, scoring a hat trick on a season-high six shots. He struck early from an Igor Thiago through ball, added a near-post finish early in the second half off a Yegor Yarmolyuk assist, and completed his treble late with a header from Mikkel Damsgaard's cross. Schade has appeared in 15 of 16 Premier League matches this season, missing only one due to suspension, and has six goals and one assist.
Suspension cleared
Schade is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward for the club.
Analysis: Schade has served his suspension due to yellow cards accumulation in the Premier League and is set to return in the next contest. The left-winger has been an undisputed starter in the frontline for the Bees this season and will claim back that role against Wolves on Saturday.
Earns suspension
Schade is suspended for one match due to yellow card accumulation.
Analysis: Schade would pick up a yellow card against Tottenham on Saturday and will now be suspended for a match, with the midfielder picking up his fifth of the season. This is a rough loss for the club as they head into their match against Leeds United on Dec. 14, as he is a regular starter, not an option again until Dec. 20 against Wolves. He has yet to miss a start all season, so this will force a change, with Reiss Nelson or Gustavo Nunes as possible replacements.
Scores one in victory
Schade scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 victory against Newcastle United.
Analysis: Schade scored for a second time in three outings and registered his third goal contribution in four games. This also marked the fourth time in 11 appearances this season that he racked up at least three shots. On the other hand, this was the first time this season that he did not register a tackle.
Nets in big performance
Schade scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and five chances created in Saturday's 3-2 win over Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 76th minute.
Analysis: Schade scored once during Saturday's win, and had a brilliant showing on the whole. The winger created five chances and nearly had a handful of assists. Schade still came away with a goal, but he could have had an even bigger day with better finishing around him. Schade has found his rhythm since returning from injury at the start of the campaign.
Provides assist for opener
Schade assisted once to go with four shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 2-0 victory versus West Ham United.
Analysis: Schade carried threat down the left and played a key role in the build-up to Igor Thiago's opening goal right before the break by releasing the pass that unlocked West Ham's defence. He stretched the pitch and drew fouls that allowed Brentford to reset their shape. While he didn't get on the score sheet, Schade created constant danger and matched his season high with four shot attempts against the Hammers.
