The ball has barely even made it to the front three. That’s down to the midfielders, imo.
The midfield is bad, make no mistake, but we have zero threat up top at the moment which allows them to press us higher putting more pressure on the middle of the pitch. If even one of those three were able to show something of a threat it would free up space for us. Their inability to control the ball let alone create an attacking threat is just putting pressure on us we don’t need.
Our midfield has gone completely missing since Sarr left the field. Lo Celso poor all half, Skipp not great since coming on. Less said about Son's 45 the better, same as Johnson.
Hope they can regroup and go again with a better intensity and application in the second half because at the moment it's just a matter of time before Bournemouth go on and score multiple goals.

We have to beat their press, but no law says we have to play through it. Over the top of it is fine as well.
Injuries to two Bournemouth players and to Sarr.
A half of two halves. . We were the better team for the first 25 mins, but from there we allowed Bournemouth to run the show, and are lucky not to have conceded.
Vital half time talk and plan now.

Really poor, very unlikely we win this unless we significantly improve.
They are a very good side.
The difference from when we played them earlier in the season is noticeable, they are a far better side now.
Doubt it’s gonna do anything, that’s just the level of the current first 11.
Anyone take Gallagher now ?
A lot of people disagreeing with me about Johnson tell me what he’s offering while on the pitch ? Il wait .
This has nothing to do with injury, it's the lack of quality in midfield.
Easily being 3-1 down, thank f goodness for the whistle.
Players getting in the way, both winger of us not helping out to cover the overlapping players.
We miss soloman, for the work and goals of son he has become greedy at times, he's a lethal finisher but he's no where what we need.
Hopefully we dip into window and buy players like hwang or Pedro neto
