Bournemouth next week-Game of the season?

[JimmyConway]

Hate to say this and more than happy to be proved wrong but I have little confidence in us beating Bournemouth this Saturday probably 99.9% based on that Arsenal performance.
We are consistently inconsistent this season.
Looking at the way both teams set up I just think there aggression in midfield and pace up top will cause us all sorts of problems. There is an argument it's a bigger game for them than it is us with possibility of Champions league place where there concerned. Brighton are at home to Wolves Brentford away at City.
One thing that might be something we can take a bit of optimism about is we do from time to time bounce back well after a defeat but my head is telling me this lot are not up for a battle and an early goal from Bournemouth would likely see heads drop. Hopefully a return of Kevin & Tete might give us an extra lift.

Bournemouth have gone fifteen games unbeaten and our record against them in the Premier League is poor with just two wins in nine. Now that's not to say we can't win on Saturday, it's just that the evidence of our recent performances, coupled with their current good form doesn't point to a home win.
I think a lot depends on the players available to Silva and their application on the day. Hopefully the likes of Tete, Berge, Sessegnon, Iwobi and Kevin will be able to feature. He surely wouldn't select Reed again ? That was a crazy decision against Arsenal. I'd drop Wilson too if we have players coming back. His form has dropped off massively but still a good option from the bench.

We can't score goals, we play slow predictable football and a manager who we don't know will be here or not next season. Those who say Silva will stay if we get into Europe well that's been in his hands all season and so far it doesn't look as if he has the ability to make it happen.

Silva seemingly agrees!

Lets see what Silva does tomorrow, but it is the most important game of the season, before the next one against Wolves, and then the most important one of all, Newcastle

I really hope I am wrong, but considering our recent form I can only see an away win in this game. They are 15 unbeaten and took Arsenal to the cleaners at  the Emirates in their last away game, and won at newcastle the one before. They demolished palace last week. We've had a decent season but we are not good enough or consistent enough for that next step to the europe places. My prediction is 0-2.

3-0 Fulham - We got this
