Many will look at Bournemouth’s start to the season as ‘same old’ but, in reality, the signs are positive.
No wins in the opening five games doesn’t really paint the whole picture of how our campaign has started. Three points from five games that we got zero points from last season evidently shows an improvement, but it’s the shift in performance and style that’s the most pleasing aspect for fans.
A far more progressive and offensive style is being implemented well by new gaffer Andoni Iraola, albeit it will take some time to polish as it’s completely opposite to how we played last season.
You can add to that the big players missing through injury and a demanding set of fixtures.
