Eddie Howe didn't hide from criticising his players when he talked about the continued losing run. The players were at fault for the second goal at Liverpool and not doing their jobs from a throw in, and it's clear that Eddie wants to make his players aware that they are making it harder for themselves at times.
Bournemouth were fortunate to come up against Chelsea when they were not at their best and unfortunate that they played Liverpool when they were on top form. The players need to feel annoyed though to work harder at their game and in training there will be a real desire to do better.
The games that have gone though have gone. It is disappointing that the team have not managed to build on the wins against West Ham and Chelsea, but they have to try and keep those games in mind rather than the last two matches to try and get a win against Wolves.
Bournemouth also have to look at getting their own game back on song in an attacking manner. They have not scored in the past two matches, and it's not just the defence that needs to sharpen up their act.
The break might have come at a good time for AFCB. |
The mood in the camp might not be overly high or low at the moment. The table shows Bournemouth are still sitting handily in mid-table and they have games to play to make this a good season. There is no distraction about cups or any further transfer windows. It's all about the Premier League and in this league you have to be at your best to stop the best teams.
