Ball was off the pitch and their player goes in studs up, booking for both. This referee is a clown. 

Shouldn't have squared up to him. Not sure it merited a yellow for AMN though.

We're doing OK.

Bournemouth are awful though, they're there for the taking. Wish we would show more ambition and go for the kill.

Get an early goal second half and we can win this pretty easily. We need to be more ruthless.

Absolutely this. They are there for the taking. Hoping we can get another quick goal after half time.

Great goal to put us 1-0 up.

We’ve looked decent in spells but between Bournemouth knackering themselves with a ridiculously high press, us playing some long ball to break that, and the ref having a Bournemouth shirt on under his, it’s been a bit patchy.

We’ve been able to break through a few times, if we can get one of them to count we’ll be in a very nice position.

Manager needs to affect our team positively at HT, we need some control in this game.

Would probably ditch Aribo (who i forgot was playing until 30mins) for Edozie to start trying to ping back their defenders.

Stu for me, but agree in principle

Referee giving them absolutely everything.

Obviously didn't watch the Man City Liverpool game on Sunday, where nothing was a foul - now every minor contact is. For Bournemouth anyway. 

Pretty even game. Both sides look miles short of quality. Let's see if we can hang on.

Happy to see that we’re at least trying to play out more from the back, even if it’s a bit rusty. Have to do better than the west ham game and seem to be working on it.

Bournemouth doing a lot of work off the ball which I hope bodes well for them collapsing second half.

Im not confident but feeling slightly positive off the back of that.

Well worked goal and nice to be one up. Need to attack them more. Not sure what has happened to KWP - seems not to want to get forward almost as though he's been told to stay back. Bournemouth are poor so far but suspect they'll do more second half. Ref is shocking - giving them free kicks for minor bumps - he's obviously taking no notice of the new directive to allow some physical contact.
