Bournemouth (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Well sorry, the final scoreline would seem to tell a different story, but to my eye that Bournemouth side had considerably more about them in football terms than the Palace who lifted the F.A. Cup. That was a match worth watching — from both sides.

Players make mistakes especially up 3-0 at the death

It's just clumsy, unprofessional and careless the way we insist on conceding these goals ..... a frustrating, bad habit that's lasted all season .... no wonder Dias went berserk with anger when a poor pass from Nunes ended up with this latest one going in ..... and it infuriates Pep

As was Gvardiols wayward pass that caused Kovacic's dismissal ... a ten year old kid with dodgy eyesight could have passed that ball straight to Kovacic from there, instead of putting the ball two yards to the side of him!

Classy farewell to Kevin, well done those fans who stayed on to celebrate his contribution to the team over the last decade.

Well deserved win. Finally the better side won. Decent performances all round.

Now get the 1 or 3 points at Fulham and job done for the season.

I agree. Still annoyed about Saturday and the Red card cheating.

Seems like most stayed which is a testament to his greatness.

You asked for it

by telling the truth yeah sure. Go to bed little man.

 

[Yue Wollongong]

Imagine the Pep send off just around the corner…

I thought we were very good tonight. Their goal was a blot on the night and really frustrating cause I thought Nunes had had a great game up to that point.

Bernardo motm for me, marmoush superb and what a goal, Nunes and Gvadiol superb at full back, really good performances.

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

Was very good by us, especially after Saturday
Bournemouth seemed to be in holiday mode and it was very easy for us to get possession back when we lost it

 

[roach3]

Imagine if it was ratfink over at United, Kepa would be in jail with a red card

Splinter goes down holding his throat everytime he loses the ball
Biggest con merchant in the league

It wasn't bad, it was a job done, but it certainly wasn't any classic ..... the highlights for me, our first and third goals .. both superb finishes.

 

[Kippax77]

A red card just over the halfway line stopping a goal scoring opportunity.
Yawn.
3 days after Haaland is stopped from one 20 yards from goal.
I rest my case you fucking WUMS

 

[Twisted-wheel]

Well played boys, some good football played out there tonight and a vital 3 points. That was a sad farewell for king Kev, absolutely gutted big time that it’s come to an end

 

[big gaz]

Just get the win at Fulham then breath.
