Is there a south coast rivalry between Bournemouth and Southampton?
Could this be one where we see a fired up Dibling?
Not sure how many times he’ll touch the ball in his 3 minutes at the end of the game

Wonder if this will be the type of 1-1 where we take the lead and then let it slip or the type of 1-1 where we have a terrible first half then grab a late equaliser and push on unsuccessfully for the win?
Definately one of the two.

Moyes saying no injuries other than Grealish so full squad but they're looking after Branthwaite. That presumably means our two recognised right backs will be back to 3rd and 4th choice too.

We'll all be raging when he starts the same defence as the weekend. I can actually cope with it but would like to see a change in midfield. Bench Armstrong and bring George or Dibling in for natural width. Can see it being the same 11 though or for the biggest rage bait possible Mc Neil starting.

Yeah, same. I can handle whatever combo of defenders pretty much as I think it’s often much of a muchness. Absolutely would like changes in midfield though. Play George so we can carry some threat from either side and don’t try and shove Armstrong in again on the wing.

I wonder on the mentality at times, because every time we have an opportunity to consolidate our position, or in this case go above the RS, we bottle it. This game has draw written all over it for us, but a win is there if we show up

Big rivalry between them and you could throw Portsmouth in the mix when they were up there too…

I can see him starting Keane again but this time, not get so lucky as he did against Fulham first half

Didn’t actually realise but apparently Bournemouth have picked up the most points since the start of the year aside from Man United and Chelsea.
So they are in good form actually. Going to be a tough game.

Missus birthday tomorrow so trying decide whether to 'ram' it and deal with the consequences of watching this, or put a film on instead.
Leaning towards the latter tbh, not much of a birthday night if I stick the match on

Might work in our favour, we could almost treat it like an away game if they come flying out, we might actually win.

I hope this is taken as 'doing a ram' and not how that might actually have come across
