"It's true, we are getting decent results. It's difficult to go eight games without a loss in the Premier League. We are probably drawing too much. We have been drawing a lot in the Premier League. Some of them are very good draws, others not so good. Thirty-nine points, we lost today a chance to get those magical 40 points that everyone marks as the first thing."
"Prior to his reported £64m switch to City, only Igor Thiago (17) and Erling Haaland (24) had registered more goal involvements than Semenyo (13, level with Bruno Fernandes), and Iraola credited his squad for the way they have dealt with his departure."
"Only Aston Villa (19) and Sunderland (16) have gained more points from losing positions than Bournemouth in the Premier League this season (15). The Cherries are also now unbeaten in their last eight top-flight games (W4 D4), and have only enjoyed a longer streak without defeat once previously in the competition."
Bournemouth drew 1-1 with Sunderland, with Evanilson equalizing Eliezer Mayenda's opener to extend their unbeaten streak to eight Premier League matches. Manager Andoni Iraola stated the team is not feeling the effects of Semenyo's departure to Manchester City. Bournemouth have won four and drawn four of their last eight games, their second-longest unbeaten run in the competition. The club sits ninth in the table with 39 points and remains in contention for European qualification. Iraola acknowledged they are drawing too frequently and narrowly missed reaching 40 points, a benchmark many consider significant. Bournemouth face Brentford in three days.
