Kinda summed up our season for me. When we got into a rhythm we showed how dangerous we can be, but for large parts of the game we were disjointed and well off the pace. Couple that with a lack of resilience that leaves us incredibly vulnerable defensively and it was a microcosm of our season.

We desperately need to go on a bit of a run and see what confidence can do. There is a team in there somewhere, but it still needs a lot of work.
 
Lookman or Digne MOTM,cant decide which,weird game,first 10 minutes Bournemouth couldnt get out of their half,then Pickford mishit a clearance and we went to pieces,passes too short or overhit,end of that half and for 20 minutes into the 2nd we came alive with slick one touch passing,score and go to bits again,we cant seem to play a full 90 minutes
Found the substitutions odd again,and thought the ref had an absolute mare,blowing up for any contact whatsoever,could,maybe should have given a red,overall a very odd scrappy frustrating game but 3 points at the end
 
Should thank Taylor for a one eyed performance as ref. Worth a goal to us..

Gueye tackle wasn't a foul. Lerma and several other Bournemouth players should have been in the book. Didn't book Glyffi or Theo for poor challenges (cowardly of him)
 
Lookman was great especially in the 1st half, but thought Digne was our best player over the 90 minutes. How he got that cross in for Zouma to score the first I'm not sure but it was superb.

I went for him as well. That cross for the first goal was truly world class. He's slotted in for Baines seamlessly and is our player of the season thus far by a distance imo.
