  • 375 - How Bournemouth Made A Statement Against Aston Villa

    375 - How Bournemouth Made A Statement Against Aston Villa
    Feb 9 2026
    AFC Bournemouth may have “only” drawn with Aston Villa on the scoreboard, but on the pitch this felt like a performance that said far more. In this match review, we break down a dominant display from the Cherries as Andoni Iraola’s side controlled large spells of the game, pressed relentlessly, and limited a strong Villa team to very little. From the structure out of possession to the confidence in build-up, this was another example of Bournemouth looking well-drilled, fearless, and tactically mature. With rumours and discussions growing around Iraola’s future, performances like this only strengthen the argument that the club should be moving quickly to secure his long-term commitment. This wasn’t a smash-and-grab point — it was a statement showing how far this team has come. We’ll analyse: ▪️ Why Bournemouth looked the sharper side throughout ▪️ How Iraola’s tactics nullified Villa’s threat ▪️ Key individual performances, including Rayan (obviously!) ▪️ What this result says about the manager’s future and the direction of the club Learn more about your ad choices.

    373 - Finally Clicking? Bournemouth’s Wolves Win & Transfer Window Explained
    Feb 3 2026
    A big win away at Wolves, twinned with a relatively calm but purposeful transfer window, signalled that AFC Bournemouth might be "back". The Cherries fanbase are cautiously starting to believing that things might be clicking again, and with the table looking a lot more healthier, could the win at Molineux be the springboard for Cherries to have a second half of the season that supersedes the first? In this video, we break down Bournemouth’s victory in the Black Country, we analyse the showing of debutant Rayan, plus we ponder the performances from other star performers including Eli Junior Kroupi and Alex Scott.

  • 372 - Bournemouth v Wolves: Rob Edwards' "Logic" Of Ditching Boro

    372 - Bournemouth v Wolves: Rob Edwards' "Logic" Of Ditching Boro
    Jan 30 2026
    AFC Bournemouth turn their attention to Wolves next, but there’s more to this fixture than just three points. In this video, we question why Rob Edwards made the bold decision to leave promotion-chasing Middlesbrough for a relegation battle at Wolves, and what that tells us about the scale of the challenge facing them right now. From a Cherries perspective, the timing couldn’t be more interesting. Bournemouth come into the game with momentum, confidence, and growing excitement around the squad — not least the possibility of a first appearance for exciting new Brazilian signing Rayan. Could this be the moment fans finally get a glimpse of what the club believes could be a future star? Thank you to everyone who has contributed to all our platforms.

In this video, we break down: • How Bournemouth disrupted Liverpool’s rhythm • The tactical tweaks that frustrated Slot’s side • Why this performance says so much about Iraola • What went wrong for Liverpool • And how Bournemouth found a winner at the death!

  • 370 - Are Liverpool "Back"? Bournemouth’s HUGE Test Awaits

    370 - Are Liverpool "Back"? Bournemouth’s HUGE Test Awaits
    Jan 22 2026
    Amid Bournemouth’s growing injury crisis, Liverpool arrive on the South Coast for what promises to be a serious test for Andoni Iraola’s side. Arne Slot’s Liverpool, much like Bournemouth, burst out of the blocks earlier in the season. However, a high summer turnover of players soon caught up with them, leading to a drop-off in form that saw their grip on the Premier League title slip away. Bournemouth’s own campaign has been patchy, but recent resilience and tactical clarity has improved the mood. But with Liverpool in town, the question is simple: can Iraola’s side rise above the injuries and spring a shock this weekend? We're at the Queens Park Hotel to break down the key battles, tactical themes and ponder what this match will REALLY tell us about Bournemouth’s progress as they face one of their biggest tests yet.

    369 - Recruiting Like Brighton: Are Bournemouth Nearly There or Miles Off?
    Jan 16 2026
    Everyone wants to recruit like Brighton - smart data-led signings, huge resale value, and a clear long-term plan. AFC Bournemouth are looking to replicate their model, but how far off are they? In this video, we break down Bournemouth’s ambition to follow the Brighton recruitment model, but given our the evidence that high player turnover seems to result in a culture of impermanence and uncertainty, we ponder the type of signings Cherries might need in order to prevail - both this season, but also long term. Plus, a look forward to Monday night's huge game at the Amex where Cherries and Seagulls face off in a clash between two sides that have perhaps been underwhelming this season - is that fair? We're are at the Queens Park, insde The Court Room. Visit at 482 Holdenhurst Rd, Bournemouth, BH8 9AR.
