I was expecting Bournemouth to take something off a confidence shy Arsenal yesterday. Surprised the Gunners won so comfortably. So come Friday night, 5 games and no points seems unlikely. Hope thats the scenario but as others have said, i'd take a point now.

Yer point would be good. It's all about the wins at home this season. That is where we are far stronger.

Even last season I wasn't that convinced most of the time away from home.

As a Bournemouth resident (well Poole actually) there's nothing I'd like more than winning in their (my) backyard! And that includes beating Palace!

We were shocking at the library yesterday, likewise at West Brom and against Watford. Tippy, tappy sideways shit that we often revert to when we realise the oppo are just too good for us.

Poor, disorganised, little threat up front, lacking confidence, players arguing with each other, tactics all over the shop, players being played out of position. Some really weird stuff going on.Our most promising player Lewis Cook dumped on the bench. The City game was better but the massive gulf in class was still there as usual.

We're feeling it's a must win game (obviously) but I can't see where our next point is coming from at this rate and that fixture list just suddenly looks pretty daunting.

Feels like a very little long time ago that we got a win against them, definitely a bogey team for us, I'd happily take a point right now.

They will have targeted this for 3 points.

Smug Eddie will not make the tactical mistake TP made yesterday. (Playing their RB at LB - he was a different player when he switched over.)

We should go there full of confidence. No reason we can't win.

Which is nice.

If we could beat them it would also give us a 7 point lead over them. I know it's very early but that is a big lead to have in the bottom part of the table. The best thing that could happen for us in the early part of the season is for one team to get cut adrift and get one hand on a relegation spot by Christmas. I'd be more than happy for Bournemouth to play that role.

The even better best thing for us would be to have TWO teams cut adrift at Christmas and them being Bournemouth and Palace

No need to come on here with your 'Billy Big Bollox ' attitude.
