A Bournemouth-related question was put to 成人快手 chief football writer Phil McNulty in Monday's Q&A.

Oliver asked: Hi Phil. When teams such as Bournemouth beat Arsenal why is there so much focus on what Arsenal did wrong, rather than what Bournemouth did right? I feel teams outside the top six never get enough credit for top performances.

Phil answered: Hi OIiver. I sense your frustration but unfortunately it is always a bigger story when one of the big teams takes a heavy fall.

I did think Bournemouth got credit but Arsenal are the headline story. The way of the world I'm afraid.

On this game, I just loved that set piece for Ryan Christie鈥檚 goal, a brilliantly worked corner routine involving Lewis Cook and Justin Kluivert. Straight off the training ground and brilliantly executed.

Can you imagine how delighted coach Andoni Iraola and his staff will have been with that?
