Well Salah's definitely not going to be the top scorer now so at least he can relax and remain composed in front of goal. I feel like he's been pressuring himself far too much to get that golden boot when in all honestly, who cares.

Having watched Arsenal today, he could concievably bag himself 2-4 goals next Wednesday. Same at Newcastle.  But you're right, who cares.

[rushyman]

Bournemouth need something here

1-0 down

At some point they may actually have to commit 3 or more people forward. Norwich are genuinely better than these

[kloppagetime]

See ya! You won't be missed, apart from the easy 6 points but it's the same for City so doesn't really make a difference.

Yeah they won't be, poor side defensively deserve to be going down. People may hate the way Dyche has Burnley setup but at the end of the today on a limited budget that's the best approach of making your side into a solid Premier League outfit.

[Floydy]

You've had your fun Bournemouth ... now back to where you belong and let a proper club like Leeds take your place.

will save us a few quid on the away days.  Although when the weather was fine golden sands could be a right craic.
Certainly beats rainy day stuck inside the white rose centre in Leeds,

Now you are talking that involves real drama. 😀

Used to feed a small family of sparrows with fat balls and seeds in my garden when I lived in North Wales. Then about fifty of them started showing up. Then wagtails, blue tits and finches came. Plus the odd robin. Magpies came too, but very early, just before sunrise. Their chattering was the loudest but the sparrows were by far the most violent and noisy buggers, fighting over the food even though there was plenty to go around. Bastards.

When you mentioned North Wales and Blue Tits I switched off. Had enough of everton for one day.

In that case, people need to stop asking why Dyche doesn’t get to manage top clubs then.

Yeah, the sparrows are something else. I have one whose a real psycho literally tries to walk on the heads of the other birds, as though he's trying to kill them. He's a funny little bugger hyper competitive.

[Oskar]

Great block by Ake.

[rushyman]

If Ake has to go off they’re going to get battered here

[skipper757]

What a terrible pass.  Straight to Vardy.  Bournemouth causing so many of its own problems.

[rushyman]

Possibly Akes last tackle For Bournemouth

[Oskar]

Looks like Ake is done.

Assuming it's as bad as it looks, he's probably played his last game for Bournemouth.

[Nick110581]

Ake surely leaves when they go down

[Morgana]

You should nickname him Robbo just for a laugh.

[Oskar]

Looks like a bad injury for Ake judging by how slowly he was having to move as he was helped down the tunnel then.

[Morgana]

Poor Ake. Hasn't been a great year for him with injuries. He went down in the game against us didn't he? (Vaguely remember Virgil giving him a cuddle as he went off). The Cherries have really suffered with injuries this year.

[Clint Eastwood]

Is it a coincidence that Solanke and Ibe, two very promising players while with us, have looked absolutely dreadful at Bournemouth?

Brad Smith could have done better too.

[Caligula?]

Is it a coincidence that Solanke and Ibe, two very promising players while with us, have looked absolutely dreadful at Bournemouth?

Um, they sort of stopped looking promising before they were even shipped off to Bournemouth.

Solanke was pretty dreadful for us to be fair, bar a few promising cameos early on. Ibe looked decent but never developed an end product. Klopp saw straight through it.

[Dynasty]

Can we just rest Salah now he ain't winning the golden boot?

I've seen fat balls on a cat, but on a sparrow? They must have been huge indeed to notice them. We might have to bring in Effes for an expert opinion.

[jillcwhomever]

I think they've both been on the iron brew. 

[Clint Eastwood]

Ibe wasn't quite on our level but he was definitely destined for better than this.

Solanke was a weird one. He never seemed to have a killer instinct for us but 1 goal in 60 games is dreadful. If anything he's regressed.

[sinnermichael]

Is Lallana definitely going to Leicester next season? He'll do well there. A bit of experience in what's a very young squad, Vardy aside.

Why would anyone actually be surprised though? It's pretty obvious that there is something amiss at Bournemouth and has been for a while. Going to a side struggling like that brings its own issues.

Was hoping he would take the big payday at PSG. He deserves a break, an easy league win and a fat paycheque in his twilight years. Premier League is rough.

[rushyman]

Bournemouth need 2 goals

Theyll try and get them by sitting in for 45 mins

[Morgana]

I think they've both been on the iron brew. 

[Floydy]

Deffo, I blame Michael Edwards, he must surely have a secret video recording of Eddie Howe sucking Colin Wankers toes after a game a few seasons ago. There must be some reason we keep blackmailing them.

[Oskar]

A player like Solanke could probably do with dropping into the Championship and hopefully finding his feet in front of goal. He doesn't lack for effort, but his confidence must be shot playing in this team and the fee Bournemouth paid for him has to weigh heavily given he can't buy a goal in the Premier League. It might be a case of him needing to take a step back in order to develop and progress, but he's really struggled at this level.

[Gerry Attrick]

The only level Solanke has ever looked dangerous is reserves. He spent a season in the Netherlands where he scored 7, but I'd back myself to find the net a dozen times a season playing monsters like VVV Venlo, ADO Den Haag and Fortuna Sittard. He's just no good.

[Nick110581]

This game is an horrendous standard

I would agree he needs to regain his confidence out of the Premier League spotlight. There just seems something really off at Bournemouth somehow. He needs a fresh start somewhere to rediscover his feel for football. I think in the right club he could still do something.

[Morgana]

This game is an horrendous standard

Absolutely terrible. Almost as boring as City's 5-0 spanking of Brighton 

[Robinred]

I’ve enjoyed listening to Efan Ekoku - has made a pleasant change from Carra, Neville and Hinchcliffe.

[rushyman]

Leicester players time wasting v these is Embarrasing

[jillcwhomever]

Penalty Bournemouth

[Dim Glas]

oooppps! What a dope.
