    When one overhead kick just isn't Brazilian enough.

    The media fans can get back behind Fraudiola again. The line can be something like 'the bestest manager of all time identified the weaknesses in his team and addressed them'. Because any other manager can't do that, the only trick is having £150 million to actually do something about it. The test of him being a great manager would be getting back to winning ways with the team he has now, long before he actually did.

    He actually admitted that he ****ed up this season himself a few days ago.
    The club told him that he needed to freshen up the squad and he thought he knew better:

    Well,yet another season sees us breaking our necks giving Arsenal as many points as possible.Where would they be without our seasonal contribution?Come to think of it,where would we have been?At the moment our travelling fans are looking at a possible league game at Wrexham next season if our lads don't get their fingers out!I wonder if Mr.Levy would even care?

    Seems not so long ago I was at Luton watching him in a FA Cup replayed game after he had scored 6(?) earlier that did not count.Luton made a change and won the replay!Different FA Cup in those days.They've managed to screw it up these days with no replays and too many competitions for money,money,money!

    A Scottish ballon d’or winner. Doubt we’ll see one of those in our lifetime

    according to a tweet from Bournemouth, some supporters left the vitality stadium at 2am(ish) this morning. The premier league need to do something about this. It’s completely unacceptable on the fans.

    Love how you can disallow a goal for a corner that wasn’t given but can’t when it’s given incorrectly!

    Excellent logic, complete sense. But what has logic got to do with VAR?

    I know their 3rd goal's been ruled out and they've missed a couple of other chances to extend their lead, but what a performance this has been by Bournemouth against the form team in the league at one of the most difficult away grounds in Europe. They've also got loads of injuries.

    Iraola has done a phenomenal job at building this Bournemouth side. Excellent chance of qualifying for Europe. They employ an aggressive, high-pressing style that focuses on quick, direct play and fast transitions. They mark man-to-man and can defend robustly in a mid block out of possession. Really enjoyable and well-balanced system that's bearing fruit this season.

    If you lot do decide to get rid of Ange, I think he'd be a superb replacement. His body of work at Rayo Vallecano was impressive too.

    Already said he’s top of my list. For me he’s literally a carbon copy of Pochettino, even his managerial career path is going similar.

    Bournemouth currently have 10 injuries too, we have 11.

    One team looks like they have 25, the other looks like they have none.

    Kluivert's been unplayable today. What a performance capped off with a special, special goal.
