AFC Bournemouth vs Arsenal highlights (0-2)

Bournemouth manager Scott Parker : “The quality of their levels was clear to see. I was disappointed with out general demeanour and body language and at times and not understanding what we need to be against a top side.
"We lacked an endeavour and real desire to understand how the game looked.

"At half-time the most important thing was to make the players understand what we really wanted from the game. We need to show certain elements of what we showed second half and not first half.

"The first half was a difficult half. They came out of the blocks and they are a very good team. When you are us you cannot lose hope and I just felt we lost that a little bit. The players need to understand what we need to bring and we just fell short of that."

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard : "We came out really strong from the start and dominated the game completely. We scored some good goals and controlled the game, so it felt good.

"The second half was maybe a little bit different. We gave them some momentum and a lot of set-pieces but William [Saliba] scored our third one so it was a solid game."

Gabriel Jesus' work in the build-up to the first goal: "He gives us a lot. Not just goals and assists, but with the link-up play with how he drops down so we're lucky to have him."

Saliba's brilliant finish: "I've never seen him do that in training but it was a great strike. I'm really happy for him. He did really well in the last game too so I'm happy for him.

"We're doing well but we have to keep going, working hard. We're looking forward to the next game already. That's what it's all about."

AFC Bournemouth vs Arsenal . Score: 0-2.
