[Bournemouth Baggie]

The second half against Man City and the first twenty minutes against Arsenal, uptempo, wide game, pushing on with options upfront when the ball is crossed. In the latter game we are undone by an atrocious refereeing decision and heads go down but that didn't hide the fact that we were competitive and deserved to be in front. That style works so why then abandon it against a side we should beat, at home, 2-0 up? Complaining about refereeing decisions does not mask the fact that we have the resources to beat these sides but he will revert to his default tactics of trying to defend rather than looking to put the game beyond doubt. The issue we have is the paucity of decent managers with no one out there that springs immediately that can take us forward. A few decent prospects but none with experience at this level. A few testing games on the horizon which now, because of some poor results, we need to get something from. Hate the football, don't like Pulis but we are unfortunately stuck with him I suspect.
