Bournemouth are a very good mid-table Premiership side, despite a bad start last season they finished 1 point off the top 10. They battered us a few weeks back (we fluked a 1-1) and at home are going to have a good season. Suspect it'll be a comfortable win for them but your season is going to be dictated by winning the winnable home games and picking up points on the road against the other bottom 5-6 teams. Good luck, you're going to need it. Hard to see any outcome other than the 3 promoted clubs going back down - we shall see.

Is what it is mate. I'm already looking forward to next season bar the smaller allocations and early KO's. Think Ipswich are most likely to stay up of the 3.

Can't see my trip to the Emirates on Saturday being much fun tbh. Starting to regret that one.
 
If by "soon" you mean next season then I agree.

We're better than the bare results ... although I do question some of Cooper's tactics ...

VAR robbed us of a win at Palace and a draw (would have been hugely fortunate to get something at the Emirates - but even so) ...

We've played Villa, Spurs and the Goons and performed pretty well against each with a squad still getting to know each other - so I'm not despondent yet - next 4 games will provide better insight ...

Said on Saturday your next four games look massive for you and Cooper especially. Couldn't ask for a much better run of games to get your season up and running.

Not sure how much more time the owners will give him if we don't win at least a couple of those tbh ...
 
United fans being excited that they managed to get him for a bargain of £50m and never got Branthwaite who was desperate to join they think.
Big Names over substance has been the clubs recruitment policy for so long now and this is what you get.

A bunch of mercenaries who don't really give a ****.

And long may it continue

That’s what every team in and around the bottom will say ….
 
Lol chaos thinks I'm on a jinx mission when I actually think we're gonna get battered <laugh>

Good pressing team against a piss around at the back team who've already given up loads of goals from being pressed this season. Hardly takes a genius to work out how it's gonna go.

My one slight hope is that they've got form for getting over excited when we visit and then bottling it. Bless 'em.
Looks like that slight hope is as dead as Bob.
