Bournemouth (A) | Post Match Thread

Rico Lewis is simply incredible. Palmer needs to step it up then wel have 3 top level academy players in the squad! The stuff of dreams.
 
A great result, funnily enough I thought we were better against Forest but the chances just wouldn't go in. We really could and should have scored six that game.

One worry for me is how easy we are to play through. Bournemouth got behind us a fair few times and gave us some hairy moments. They could easily have scored a couple more. Forest did it once last week and scored. A slight concern.
Pep is trying to find a way to create more opportunities as all teams sit back and defend deep against us

We know we are risking being attacked down our right but we are creating more clear cut chances now.

Also by putting Foden on the right or Mahrez inside and Walker overlapping as against Leipzig he is creating space and speed, that has been missing

I much prefer this system and when Stones is back it will work even better
 
I am struggling to understand why Akanji is coming in for stick from some quarters.
I think it was the same when Ake first joined.
To me he has looked composed and calm. His distribution is pretty good and I can’t recall him doing anything stupid so far
It’s his first season in the team and PL.
I would say all in all he’s settled in pretty well despite having had to play with a different CB most weeks and hasn’t let us down.
Cut the guy some slack. He looks a good player to me.
