Bournemouth, unlike Everton, use all of their subs every week and have a squad full of players ready to come into a game. They also trust in their players and forgive them mistakes because a lot of them are young. It's paying great dividends and they have a much better squad than our supposed "big boy team".
Spot on mate. I think it was Tavenier after the game, when asked about Kroupi and Rayan, said about how they give young players the confidence to go out and play with freedom. Seems to be the exact opposite of
Moyes approach.
I'm fairly certain if those two had been signed for
Moyes then they'd have spent the bulk of the season on the bench as unused subs.
At Bournemouth, they will have made mistakes in their early games. Given the ball away trying to beat a man or play forward, or lost their man. Seems Bournemouth give them the confidence and freedom to make those mistakes in a game whilst Moyes sees that as a sign that they need more time on the bench.
Either way, they're 15 games unbeaten now in the Premier League. A club based in a town, playing in a ground that holds less than 12,000 and whose fans, in the 80s/90s, were walking around with blankets asking holidaymakers to chuck loose change in to save them from going bust.
