Bournemouth Have To Buy Players To Avoid The Drop

On Saturday evening at the Vitality Stadium, there was a clear gulf in class between the two teams on parade. Last week, Bournemouth had suffered a rude awakening to the Premier League season, going 4-0 down away at the Etihad against Manchester City, but many a Bournemouth supporter would have expected some stiffer test for Arsenal on home soil. The Gunners blew away their opponent 3-0 on the night, highlighting the fact that the Premier League is a different kettle of fish, and the management of the newly-promoted club must quickly go to the transfer market for reinforcements, else they go down immediately.

Summer signing, Marcos Senesi endured a torrid time against the fluidity and fast movement of the Arsenal forward line and must have been somewhat relieved adder being hooked off at the time. The other summer arrival, Marcus Tavernier struggled to make inroads into the Arsenal back line, and despite the Cherries improving significantly after the break, a goal from William Saliba took the wind of their sail. The competition to remain in the English top-flight is getting more difficult by the season, as highlighted by the massive recruitment of Nottingham Forest another newly-promoted side, who have only Chelsea to count as the team that has outspent them in the transfer window.

Bournemouth needs quality in the middle of the park, trickery and pace on the wings, and a striker that can guarantee at least 10 Premier League goals. For all the endeavour and courage of Kiefer Moore, the Premier League demands so much more quality, and Scott Parker must sit down with the Bournemouth hierarchy to make inroads into the transfer market and purchase proven Premier League quality, via permanent purchase or via loan. Arsenal didn’t have to get into second gear to defeat them, and with their next game away at Liverpool on the horizon, The Cherries might find themselves in a relegation dogfight early this season.

Parker must be wary of showing too much loyalty to players that won him a promotion from the Championship last term, otherwise, he will be known as a manager that takes a team to the elite division but can’t keep them there, after suffering relegation with Fulham earlier in his Premier League managerial career. Few Bournemouth fans have forgotten the glory days of Eddie Howe in charge, who despite meagre resources, overachieved with mediocre players, despite their lack of obvious talent, made up for it with the application, dedication and unwavering commitment. The Premier League is a very unforgiving league, and it won’t do well for Scott Parker and Bournemouth to learn the hard way by May. They’d have no one to blame but themselves.
