Only watched the half hour highlights, but from those, good luck picking a motm as everyone put a shift in

All I would note is that McNeil is everywhere, he does not stop running and working.

It's so nice not having to vote for Pickford every week. He's still great but it just means we're not relying on him to save us every week

That's why I voted for him.. Been our most consistent performer under Dyche. Along with Pickford.

Jimmy G is pure class and will only get better if Dyche doesn't go all stubborn and take him out of Centre mid to accomodate Gana.

Branthwaite, also class and building quite the partnership with JT.
 
Lucky with the 3rd in hindsight, I’d have been fuming if it was one of ours being held / dragged the way Onana did to regain possession. Can only assume it was the ref letting it go as Harrison had just been brought down moments earlier, plus he was turning back rather than continuing towards our 1/2.
McNeil MoTM for me, just because of how busy he was at both ends inc a goal line save to maintain the clean sheet.
Could she been several of them inc DCL who was very unfortunate not to get a goal himself.

We were very, very lucky with all 3 lol

I think he let it go because he might as well have worn a Bournemouth kit for 90% of the game and he kind of had to let at least one 50/50 go our way at that point.

He’s done it well in the past. He can keep even elite attackers like Salah and Saka in his pocket. What he hasn’t been able to do well is play as a two way left back for 90 minutes every week by doing things like getting forward, overlapping properly, or lately, defending a set piece.

Just as well he has McNeil in front of him then; covers enough ground for 2

Against Bournemouth.

What have we become

Good question, to which no easy answer. After the third goal subs were made is that right. So instead of pressing for more goals we erred to defend thus explains why we were pressed but thanks to McNiel and Pickford the clean sheet was kept.
