The extra problem for Burnley is that I just don't see them buying their way out of trouble next month.

Yes, noticed his whinging after the game at the Emirates the other day.

Don't remember him having so much to say about officiating and the state of the game when his team were doing it well. Smells like a deflection tactic.

Also, not sure you should keep droning on about gamesmanship when your team are one of the dirtiest in the league.

He's been doing it for most of this season, but often hidden away towards the end of MOTD. Obviously doing at the Emirates, live on Sky, gets a whole lot more coverage.

Absolutely a deflection tactic. But one which just turns the neutrals against him. (Although I didn't buy into the Dyche love-in last season.)

Boo - Delph will be suspended against us. Wanted him to play!
 
Every season there’s a team that starts well, before plummeting down the table, to hover just above the relegation zone.
Is Bournemouth going to be that team, this season, or are they just having a sticky period?
They seem to have struggled for the last two months, compared to the previous months.

Story of Bmouth's PL life to date. They regularly go on these runs of wins or defeats (although on this occasion there's been a clear shift in the difficulty level of the fixtures. A real easy first quarter of the season on paper, followed by a horrid second quarter of the season).

Don't forget that Burnley lost something like eight games in a row last season, and only dropped from 6th to 7th (or something like that).
 
Burnley lose (get thrashed at home!)

Newcastle lose

Huddersfield lose

Palace draw

Cardiff draw

Fulham draw

Other than one more Wolves goal, I think that's what the call a perfect set of results!

There's every chance that Bournemouth will be picked apart by the vultures in January, we could actually finish above them.
