Never really got in top gear and some sloppy performances but Jezza and Bernie were different class.

An absolute canter. Seven minutes to win the game, then just play out the 90.

You don't win premier leagues by beating the likes of Bournemouth, but you do set down a marker to show what you have in the tank.

Don't see anyone getting near us this season, despite a couple of fairly early losses.

I think liverpool will give us a hell of a fight. A year off the PED’s last season means they are a lot stronger this, and no champions league distraction

If we play our game we smash this league

Even in 2nd gear that’s what we can do when we’re clinical. To be fair to Bournemouth they played some pretty decent stuff in patches but we just blew them away as we pleased.

Doku outstanding, Bernie not far behind and pretty accomplished performances all over the park.

 

[Jamshopbridge]

We were OK. Lots to improve on....really should have got to double figures. We need a decent striker, haaland just isn't doing it often enough for my liking ;-)

lol

 

[Eccles Blue]

Yes, it's a shame the shitty international break is just around the corner. We've put our foot down over the winter months in recent seasons, let's hope we do it again.

Oh good grief not again!! How many breaks can they have? For goodness sake we’re trying to win a treble here. :-(

Fixed.

Haaland injured? First time he didn’t come on the pitch after the final whistle

He'd probably left early, like everyone else:-)

Agreed hate sloppy 6-1 wins

Thoroughly enjoyable game, for the most part. First 25 mins Bournemouth defended well and were tidy when in possession. Doku provides something i’m not sure we’ve had fully, since Sane left, electric pace from a standing start together with knowing when to take a player on and when to retain possession. Another masterclass from Bernardo, skill, game intelligence and hard work in equal measure, his second goal was sublime.Good solid performances from all others. Nunes and Kovacic need more time to ‘learn’ the City way - but how many signings do we get wrong so I’m optimistic for both. One day we’ll go full pelt against a team for 90 minutes -and I can see another ‘Huddersfield‘ scoreline.
