 Hello and welcome to this week's AFCB TV preview show. Once again, I'm joined by BBC Radio Solence Chris Temple, and we have plenty to get through this morning. On the show today, not only will we be previewing this weekend's game against West Ham United, but we'll also be having a look at what happened when the AFCB TV cameras followed Lewis Cook out and about. But before all of that, there's just one place to start. Last weekend, the Cherries opened their Premier League account with a 2-0 win over Cardiff. Let's take a look at the goals. The Cherries coming forward. Callum Wilson in behind all the moment. Wilson in the penalty here. Tuffles down. It's a penalty! It wasn't a huge amount of protest, I have to say, but it wasn't a clear cut anyway. Kevin Friend gave it. Callum Wilson is going to take it. Waited a long time for that goal on the final day of last season to break his long droughts. Can he kick off this season on day one by hitting the back of the net from the penalty spot? It's Wilson against Everidge in the Cardiff goal saved by the goalkeeper. Parmed away down to his left. Ball up towards the far side. Cherries still going. Francis battling away right side of the area into the box goes Francis. Still going to the ball. Wilson! Yes! Opportunity earlier on and the Cherries put it to bed. It's been a sticky 20 minutes or so with a bit of threat from Cardiff, but Bournemouth have been the better side overall and will kick off the season with three points on the opening day. Bournemouth to Cardiff nil. Callum Wilson. Well, there we go. Goals from Ryan Fraser and Callum Wilson ensured that the Cherries got off to an excellent start in the Premier League. You can watch the full 90 minutes of the game on AFC BTV for free. Now, Chris, an excellent start to the Premier League season for the Cherries. Their first win on the opening day in the division. Exactly what they needed as well after the previous three seasons as well. I think as well when you've put in all the hard work over pre-season and fans obviously turn up with a couple of new signings, albeit they weren't playing, or one of them was, and expectations about what's going to happen in the season. If it doesn't happen on the first day, everyone's like, oh, blimey, come on. So to get it up and running with that, I think, as we said last week, it was probably quite a nice start in the Cardiff. Finding their feet in the division, a lot of people thought they might struggle and actually have to say what we said last week was it looked like it would be a tough season for them. The 90 minutes we saw here last weekend, I think it will be a tough season for them. But for Bournemouth, ideal way. Clean sheet as well. What a bonus to start the season. And yeah, that clean sheet, it's so crucial. Last season, they got the lowest amount of clean sheets in the league. That will give them such a confidence boost. Yeah, only six last season in total, and one of them was, of course, in the final game of last season here against Swansea. So to get a clean sheet up and running in Asmere, Begavitch, he made one really good save, didn't he, in the game at the south end of the ground, that goalmouth scramble when it was 1-0, which could have been a key moment. But he didn't have a whole lot to do otherwise in terms of saves. So yeah, I think the defensive unit and the manager were pretty pleased all round with the way they restricted Cardiff, yeah. And a really good team performance. Who impressed you the most in the cherry side? I like the look of David Brooks, first look I'd had at him. I hadn't seen any of him in pre-season. So yeah, I thought he showed a good amount of confidence. Of course he gave the ball away a couple of times, but he's a young lad on his Premier League debut, and he admitted afterwards that Cardiff was probably quite a good start for him because he played against them last season, so he knew quite a lot about them. So he had a good 65 minutes from him, and we saw the crowd's reception for him at the end of the game when he came off that they thought he'd done well as well. Ryan Fraser, again, was the one we talked about last week about pre-season form, and he backed that up with a goal as well. And again, great for Callen Wilson to get his column up and running after what was a sticky few months in the second half of last season. He finished obviously on a high at Burnley, scored in pre-season, and it's great to have, I guess you're out on out number nine, straight up and running in the first game as well. So yeah, those three, and I think defensively you could pick out the whole unit and say they defended really well. So yep, all in all, good start. And obviously Callen Wilson this year, he's had a full pre-season. How much could that show in last week's game against Cardiff? Yeah, I mean he was a nuisance, wasn't he? He always is. I think the penalty was possibly slightly fortunate. There was probably a bit of contact, but I think obviously for him that was a moment he won't want to look back on in terms of the way he didn't manage to score, but luckily the goal at the end of the game put that out of everybody's minds. But yeah, to have Callen fit and firing and confident I think as well, he's been working really hard. There was lots of social media videos of him running around King's Park over the summer and doing extra strength and conditioning work. So hopefully that will pay off. And yeah, as you say, to have your number nine, fit and firing right from the get-go, that's a huge bonus, yeah. Well, one person who wasn't involved last week was Lewis Cook, but the AFCB TV cameras went out and about and discussed all things football both on and off the pitch. Take a look. And you always seem to me like such a calm killer. Has there ever been a card? Yeah, calm, I'm not calm. I think anyone at football, I'm not calm. In what way? In what way are you not calm? I'm calm now off the pitch, but when I'm training I'm bad. I think I'm too competitive. It's not a bad thing, but I've always been like that since I was a little, when I was a little at Leeds, I was always, we used to have these assessments at the end of each month and it was, yeah, you're doing fine, I'm really happy with you, but you just need to stop shouting at everyone and things like that. So the next question, you like that when you go bowling, when you're playing board games with your family at Christmas? Board games maybe. I played with Nopi once when I missed him and we had a big argument because she said she won, but I won. But you're going to tell me this was years ago, but you've not let go? No, it was probably like a year ago. I don't know, it's not like that. No, off the pitch I'm not too bad, but I think on the pitch I just want to win. Well, the full interview with Lewis Cook, including how he nearly missed a call from Gareth Southgate, is available for free on AFCB TV. Now then, turning our attention to West Ham United, Lewis Cook, he obviously didn't play last week. Can you see him forging his way back into the side this week? I mean that was the standout, I guess a name on the team sheet, or name that wasn't on the team sheet last week, I think everybody would have thought that Lewis Cook would be in there. Obviously he did have a busy summer with the Englander 21s. I don't know whether that was any part of the fact that, what I do know about it anyhow is that if a player isn't quite right in terms of his levels and the numbers that they read on, whatever they read them on iPads and things these days, if the numbers aren't quite right, then Eddie won't pick people. So the only reason I can think, I can't imagine it was tactical, there wasn't really anything given away by Eddie after the game as to why he didn't choose Lewis Cook, other than to say his time will come. So yeah, I was as surprised as anybody to see him not play last week. A winning team obviously, I don't know, Eddie often likes to stick with a winning team. Andrew Sermon and Dan Gosling to be fair, I thought had pretty good games last week. So I guess when you look long term, everyone would think Cook and Lerma would be the central midfield pairing and here we are at the moment. Obviously, Jefferson Lerma, Eddie was quite coy at his press conference and said we'll see if he's involved. So personally, I don't think he will be. He's probably getting closer but maybe this is a week too soon. But yeah, so to not see Lewis Cook involved, I think he might be on the bench again if you're right. If I'm honest, I think Eddie might stick with the winning midfield but again he's very much a horses for courses manager. He might have seen something in West Ham that he thinks Lewis Cook would be a better option. So we shall see. Who knows with Eddie's team selection? You never quite know. And in terms of West Ham, they've obviously made a lot of summer signings at this stage of the season. Is that more of a help or a hindrance trying to integrate them into the side? Well, I think for West Ham, anything better than last season it's going to be a help. It was a pretty sorry campaign for them, albeit saying that. They've flirted with the relegation for a long time but actually finished only one place below Bournemouth in the end in 13th. But the board had to put their hand in their pocket there just to appease fans and show there is some ambition there. Those horrible scenes last year with fans protesting and all sorts. Hopefully for West Ham, that's long gone now and they can try and restore a bit of footballing pride. Some of the names they've bought in, £40 million on Felipe Anderson from Lazio. Jack Wilshire obviously is the one name again that will be resonating with Bournemouth fans at another move, I guess like the move here, for him to try and sort of reinvigorate himself as a full-time player somewhere else. Obviously they bought in Fabianski in Goal amongst other players. I like the young lad Ryan Fredericks they bought in from Fulham who was a good free transfer right back. He was one of their outstanding players last year in helping Fulham get promoted. So he's one who I think they've got a good deal for being a free transfer moving across London. But you know, all in all, Arnaltavitch is still a pain, isn't he? We saw him score against Bournemouth last season. They look a decent team on paper this year. Manuel Pellegrini, a manager who's won the Premier League. It's always interesting when a manager who's won the Premier League with someone like City then comes back and manages the team lower down, who he's not going to win the league with. You think of David Moyes managing Man United and then coming back at West Ham will be a short term. So for Pellegrini to come back and take on the challenge of sort of restoring West Ham is to be a top half side. Is a bold move from him, I think. But you know, he's what a history he's got around with Dribb Manager. He's just had a little spell courting in in China. So I'm sure he'll be keen to put last week's thumping at Liverpool behind them. He's got a great start for him, but Liverpool are going to thump a few people this year. Bournemouth know only too well from the back end of last season how difficult Anfield is. West Ham are a revamp team. I think they'll be a different team this year. At home, obviously, first home game, that might be quite a tricky place to go, I think. Obviously you mentioned the Liverpool result last week for West Ham. How much can we really read into that given that Liverpool are going to turn a lot of teams over this year? Not so much, I don't think. I think as you mentioned earlier about West Ham being a new team and settling down, but they hit the ground running with the way they dispatched West Ham last week. As far as Cardiff being a good opening fixture for Bournemouth, I think when West Ham saw Liverpool away as their first fixture, that's a bit of a nightmare for them. I think that will be... I don't know how much of a form guide that is to this weekend. I think you should write that one off really. I think Bournemouth will face a much sterner challenge than a team you lost four-nil last week. Of course, last year, both games with West Ham ended in draws. Can you see it playing out that way again this year? I think I'll take a draw tomorrow as things stand right now. The game here, obviously the 3-3, had absolutely everything going on including Callum Wilson's moment of magic with that last-minute equaliser in the 3-3. Of course, a game up there, Bournemouth should have won really, worked hard to take the lead through Ryan Fraser with about 20 to go and then I think that lead only lasted seven or eight minutes. I know that was a frustration and speaking to Charlie Daniels this morning he said actually that's one of the games that were shown back in pre-season. I guess as one of the learning points from last season was the fact that they let that lead slip having worked so hard to get into it, to get into the lead. I think I'll take a draw tomorrow for sure at the moment but you just never know. Those big pitches and things, they can suit the way Bournemouth play. A lot of space at the London stadium, it's a big pitch. Again, if West Ham can't don't quite hit it early on against their new players in front of their fans, first home game, you can see Bournemouth sneaking something but if you were asking me to nail a ffiver down right now and I haven't got a ffiver, I would say a draw. Of course, you mentioned a couple of West Ham's big players and now to Fitch, Wilshire. Are they the ones to look out for tomorrow? I'm interested to see how Felipe Anderson goes. You're interested to see how any player at £40m goes for sure from Lazio. They've bought in a couple, they've bought in Diop at centre half as well who we haven't seen yet. They've bought in Carlos Sanchez, an international teammate of Jefferson Lermer as well who only £3m, he looks a decent buy as well. Obviously, they've lost Lanzini to a long-term injury, that's a big blow for them as well. I think they had to strengthen the goalkeeping era as well as well. Joe Hart obviously last year didn't go so well for him. I guess Felipe Anderson is the one that any player that comes in from a foreign league who's £40m he's going to hopefully light up the league as we're hoping to see from Jefferson Lermer at £25m when he eventually gets the nod as well. I suppose Anderson probably is the one I'm looking forward to seeing. If he clicks with Arnautavitch then they'll cause a few defences problems this year for sure. It's certainly going to be a very interesting weekend. That's all from us today. If you are going to West Ham, have a very safe journey.
