Andoni Iraola addressed concerns over Bournemouth's recent performance, emphasizing that while recent results were disappointing, the team's play was commendable. He pointed out that their past matches against stronger opponents showed promise, and while adjustments are necessary to secure victories, the team remains in a good place. Brentford's manager, Thomas Frank, praised Bournemouth's efficiency and their ability to capitalize on half transitions, noting the challenge they present with their pressing tactics. Both managers expressed anticipation for the upcoming match and acknowledged the quality of play from both sides this season.
'I'm very happy,' he said yesterday. I've said it a lot of times. Andoni Iraola is very happy at Bournemouth and has said so a lot of times.
Bournemouth have been really, really impressive, the Brentford manager said. They are the best team in the league on these half transitions.
They don't change their starting XI a lot and their game management is really good. They've scored late goals against us in games we should have taken more points from.
We have to be complete and play the 100 minutes because they're always there and solid in their performance.
