Bournemouth lost two nil against Cardiff City on Saturday as Bobby Reid scored two goals in the Welsh capital.<\/p>\n
Fans say Bournemouth were a shadow of the side that hammered Chelsea 4-0 in the midweek game, and they remain in 10th position in the table on 33 points.<\/p>\n
AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe spoke to the written media after the 2-0 defeat at Cardiff City.<\/p>\n
Early goals conceded proved costly for the Cherries, and the manager was frustrated at the defending which gifted two goals in Wales.<\/p>\n
Here’s what he told the assembled members of the press after the game…<\/p>\n
ON WHAT WENT WRONG..<\/strong>.<\/p>\n We made it difficult with the way we conceded the first goal.<\/p>\n It gave them a huge lift and the manner of which we conceded it to, it was a strange goal.<\/p>\n Goals change games and to concede right at the start of both halves made things difficult.<\/p>\n ON FOLLOWING UP THE CHELSEA PERFORMANCE…<\/strong><\/p>\n It’s hugely disappointing as we really wanted to build on what we’ve done.<\/p>\n We thought the Chelsea game could’ve been a turning point for us and we’re really searching for consistency.<\/p>\n We’ve never felt like we’ve got that, we go away from home and we feel really disappointed today.<\/p>\n There’s time to reflect and focus on Liverpool but to sort out our inconsistency is the biggest challenge.<\/p>\n We can’t play like we did on Wednesday then play like we did today – the mental side was a factor today.<\/p>\n ON DAVID BROOKS’ INJURY…<\/strong><\/p>\n David injured his ankle scoring against Chelsea. It was a strange injury, he didn’t feel it kicking the ball but felt in the celebration that he injured himself.<\/p>\n He’ll be missing for around three weeks we think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bournemouth lost two nil against Cardiff City on Saturday as Bobby Reid scored two goals in the Welsh capital.
