Just three days until our next match so I might as well get it started

First of all Soucek must start

Bournemouth were possibly having the best season ever, they had an 11 game unbeaten run in the League from November to the end of January, they had reached 5th - the highest they'd ever been in the Premier League - and it looked like they might qualify for Europe for the first time.

Since then they reached the Quarters in the Cup for the third time in their history but their League form has slipped with a win over Saints, a draw with Spurs and seven loses culminating in Ipswich at home last night leaving them 10th.

The problem isn't that they don't score, they've scored in all of the last nine games but at the same time they've only kept two clean sheets in the last nine and both were in the Cup (Everton, Wolves)

When we meet on Saturday they will have played three games in seven days

I'll write more tomorrow

    Our new problem is not scoring, I'd say. We're a bit better at the back these days, but you would be if you put all 10 outfield players on the line to block shots.

    That is what I was intimating.

    I thought you may have been referring to the fact our defence has been woeful but we've scored goals for the past two seasons.
