Doesn't really matter how much their team cost were in the same league at the end of the day, was you saying stokes team cost 100 odd million when we beat them a few years back? We've just been so shit off the ball and we've paid the price.

Hamer bottled that. He’s not played well at all tonight. Too sloppy with simple passes.
Bournemouth well deserving of their lead.

Great strike for the third, but Hamer was week in the tackle.
Allen and Sheaf are spectators.

I understand what some are saying, we ARE giving away possession even under little press which is unusual for us... Maybe the 6 months has taken more a toll than we think

The gulf in class is obvious. They have spent nearly 100 million on this side though, let’s put it in to perspective

It’s not a surprising result so far; talk of play-offs on here was always devoid of any reality.

They’ve not even played well either and they don’t need to. Neither did Bristol City

Look out of our depth against Bournemouth. Would've laughed at that not so many years ago.

That doesn’t explain gifting it away under no or little pressure as I said

As the more sensible ones are saying, this more highlights how we dropped points against Barnsley and we can't afford to. Bournemouth are a very good team at this level, with a team worth 40 times ours, and it really shows. We have looked poor, but mostly because Bournemouth have played well. They haven't even had to get out of 3rd gear. Just don't let it get any worse now, and we move on.

They’ve made us shit because they’re such a better team. It doesn’t matter if you’re in the same league 99 times out of 100 Liverpool beat Fulham because they have the money to assemble a much better team. If you’re not aware of the gulf between the top and bottom of this league then your head is in the clouds.

Really? Bournemouth have played well, they'll take some stopping this season.

I completely disagree. You can tell the lad has class and he’s made some outrageous passes that show that, but it’s no use doing that if you bottle cha and can’t make the short passes.
Confusion in the middle with sheaf for goal two and bottled a challenge for goal 3.

No doubt he’s a pretty special talent but I think the stats will back it up that by his standards he’s had a poor game.

Fair point. Unfortunately we had an amazing season last year so our heads are still in the clouds. This is the reality check.

Bit of both I’d say. We seem to rush it and panic a bit against these teams, even when we’re not under pressure. So many stray passes when the player had time. We need to believe a bit more, and accept that some teams are technically better.
