Frank: Romeo Beckham has a big name but he's a very good player too
"Romeo is a very good player, of course he has a name that is pretty worldwide, and big," Frank said.
"For Romeo, he is himself, but he of course has a big name. You can't compare [father and son]."
Frank drew the comparison between Denmark international Michael Laudrup and his son Andreas, who he coached, saying: "Maybe Laudrup is also a decent player [similar to David Beckham], I coached his son and it is important to take him as a player - not as a Laudrup but as himself."
The Brentford boss added: "He is here for a reason, because we think he is a good player, and we are pleased he could make the loan deal.
"[We are] pleased to see him doing well, pleased to see the performance he had in the last game and when you have players, either permanent or on loan, it is for a reason.
"It is either for getting the team to perform, or to extend the loan deal and make it a permanent deal, so we just hope that he keeps progressing and makes it very interesting for us."
