Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe full of admiration for Watford

The Cherries started the second half brightly and went close twice in quick succession, with Joshua King volleying over after good wing play down the right by Matt Ritchie before Gradel exchanged passes with Andrew Surman and shot over. Two cool finishes from the captain were the reward for an enterprising collective display, and here his strength, power and all-round game will be key to seeing off Bournemouth.

He said: “Joel Ekstrand is training with us”.

“Leicester is the example”.

Siasia equally expressed his confidence that the scheduled worldwide friendly with their Brazilian counterparts next month will put the team in good shape for the Olympic Games.

“Now we have 37 points, we are happy and under control and excited for the next match against Manchester United”. In all, the two sides are tied at 35 league wins each, and they have shared the spoils on 29 occasions.

A return of just a single point from a possible 15 from Boxing Day has given way to seven from 12 since and progression to the FA Cup quarter-finals, and Flores has been delighted with the response from his players.

“We really don’t want to talk about the over aged players for now because we must have to know the areas of interest”.

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has claimed that his side deserved to take away all three points at Watford today.

“At this moment we are in a good run but things can change very quickly in football. We need somebody like him to score for us”. “That match was completely hard for us”. We were the dominant team, especially in the second half.

“As soon as the players know we are safe they have more freedom and we can show everyone how well we can play. It will be a very hard match”.
