Wow. A... a shot!

Wow we've had a shot

[Stu]

We're giving the ball away to easily and inviting pressure. Bournemouth are gaining confidence

I reckon that's how they'll come undone. We seem quicker than them across the pitch.

Amavis struggling against Richie.

Really? I thought he was defending pretty strongly.

Bournemouth have really launched a lot of balls into the box with very little quality. They better have more than that tactic over the course of the season if they want to stay up. We've dealt with things pretty well at the back overall. Our midfield players and forwards look like they haven't played much together. No shock there.

Gabby is cutting a lonely figure up front, constantly surrounded by 3 defenders.

That King is on his way to getting himself sent off.

He's completely isolated. I don't like the tactic at all.

[Jimbo]

We're not doing particularly well, but what a tedious encounter.

To be fair this is the first time this midfield and front 3 have been together at all, so it will take some time to click for us going forward. You can see the "stay on your feet" message may have been handed down!

How on earth is that not a yellow card for Gosling?

Bournemouth seem to be able to get plenty of players into and around the box from open play.

Clattenberg still shirking decisions.
