 Morning Andoni. I'm beating in three Premier League games, you picked up seven points from nine, a really brilliant performance against Aston Villa at the Vitality at the weekend. I said to you last week, what have you done to change things? What's different? You said to me nothing. Surely you've done something different because this looks like a very different team from a few weeks ago. Yeah, probably I wouldn't go just the last three games. I think from the world's game, even the first half was not bad. That game I think we've been improving and now we are getting the results. But it's true that we still need more points, you know, because we've been so many games without winning. So now we are doing better, we're improving in the standings, but we need to keep keeping this level, these performances, because the competition is what it demands from us. I cannot say you say it's nothing, no it's not nothing, but it's not just one factor. I suppose it's a matter of a little bit of a schedule, you know, because we had a really tough schedule, a little bit of everyone understanding each other better, players improving individually, physically, and we have some players right now in a very good moment. And now what we need to do is, especially this month that we play so many games, we need to take profit, you know, we are now, I think, in a good moment. So we need to continue taking the points in this moment, because normally during the seasons we will also have moments where we are not so well or we are not so clean and we have to take our chances now. What does it say about the team and the performance, the fact that you're disappointed you didn't win against an Aston Villa side that could have gone second? Yeah, I think, especially, you know, when you receive the goal in the 19th minute and after missing so many clear chances I would say, you know, because we had really clear chances, the keeper was really good, but it's what happens against these top level teams. You don't take the chances, they will punish you. I think I'm happy because we we defended really well the other day. We defended really well. We could improve things, yes, but both of the goals they scored, they are more because they did very well than our mistakes. Can you give me an insight into what you're doing on the training pitch, because Dom Solanke is having his best ever Premier League goal scoring season. Ryan Christie looks like he's playing the best football of his career in a different position. Lewis Cook is playing the best football he's ever played since he arrived at Bournemouth many years ago. What are you doing with these players on the pitch? What have you put into their mindset, their mentality? What have you changed? No, it's more on them. It's more on them, because we have some players, the ones you spoke about, some others who are performing really, really well, but it's because they have the level, they have this level. It's good for us, you talked about Dom, he scored the other day and he missed some chances. I love when our number nine miss chances, because at the end with the quality they have, you know, the goals will arrive and I think also, and he had too very good, he scored and even he had more chances, just in touch. I think they are being close to the goals and I think it's something we have to to keep maintaining now, because at the end is what makes the difference. It feels like a more confident team. It feels like there's a positive buzz around the training ground around the football club. Have you tried to work on that mindset, that mentality, that confidence, that belief? Have you been trying to put that within your players? No, even when we were losing the games, I had no complaints, because everyone has been pushing very hard, everyone has been trying to improve, trying to make things better collectively and it's normal now, we are having better results, you know, everyone is feeling better, you can see that everyone is more confident, they try different things on the ball, I think we could see very good quality details from especially the offensive players and the only thing we have to know is that if we are not in this kind of level, mentally, technically, it's not going to be enough so we have to keep the same standards or even higher ones. There was a couple of players that came off at the weekend. Have you got anyone coming back? What's the latest injury news ahead of the Crystal Palace game? No, we have to wait because it's very tight between games, we have to wait for this training, how everyone feels, we have a couple of players that they are not feeling very well but I don't know, I don't think it's going to be a definitive but with calls, you know, with feeling a little bit poorly, but I hope everyone is ready again to help us against Palace. So no one that played at the weekend? No injuries, no. Up next Crystal Palace aside that are struggling themselves actually under Roy Hodgson at the moment, the most experienced manager in the Premier League, just one win at Selhurst Park this season. Through your analysis, what have you learnt about their side because very structured, very organised and they have match winners in Eze and Elise that can transform games? Yes, I think it's a team that is above us. We have the chance to close this gap but they've been above us from the beginning of the season. It's also from what people say and I've heard it's a very difficult stadium to perform. It's really tough to play there so we have to be ready to start in the front foot and I would say they have very, very good individuals. I think their two centre backs are very, very good on the ball, off the ball defensively and up front, like all teams in the Premier League but you could say, you know, Edward is scoring a lot of goals, Elise now, last game has been playing very well. They have a lot of individuals but we have to be ready for, like we did against us, Tomilla the other day, give them as few chances as we can because it's what the competition demands. What do you make of Roy Hodgson's longevity, his adaptability, everything about him that meant that he's still at the top level of this advanced age? For me, it's a pleasure to face Roy Hodgson. Someone has made so many things in football, still been so competitive. We could see it past season, this season again. He has been adapting his team now. They have a couple of different structures. We'll see what we face tomorrow but it's someone who has shown his level for so many years. For me, I like to face him and for me, it's going to be a pleasure. What reaction would you get if you went home today and said, Mrs. Irola, I'm going to be a manager for the next 35 years, like Roy? I don't think I will be. It has to be very hard and also very difficult because you have to be successful, not every single season but most of the seasons, to be coaching for so long and I don't see myself as a person. What's the most impressive thing about it? Is it retaining the energy, the hunger, being able to change your approach to be a manager for that length of time is extraordinary? I think we'll have to ask him. It looks really difficult. You have to be a top-level manager to do these things, to keep the hunger. He adapts because football goes very quickly and you have to adapt every single season but for someone to do it for so long, I think it has to be someone very smart, very ready for small changes and it looks like he is. As far as your squad, you mentioned to Mark about the Wolves game when you saw a little change there. I was wondering that the players have clearly been working very hard for you from day one. They've been adapting to your system. I wondered if there was a moment when you saw them start doing things automatically or if you saw a change in their belief that they thought, yes, this is going to bring success. I think our message has been quite clear and the players have been ready to work hard and to play this way from the beginning is the only way. If we adapt, we cannot play like this because we leave a lot of space behind, they will find our weaknesses, they will exploit to play like this. Everyone has to be fully committed and we've had this from the beginning and things didn't work at the beginning but everyone was trying to help as much as they could and probably we had to be more clear on the message. It takes some mistakes also. Sometimes you have to make the mistakes to analyze the video to see, okay, maybe we can change this, we are too late or too early or the process just to have everything to be smoother. I think in the last games we've been obviously much better, especially out of the ball, I would say. This makes the offensive side a little bit easier. And it's meant that you're creating so many more chances that the last three games you've played two teams around or in the top four but those three games you've had 50 chances at goal. Is that something we're now going to see consistently, 20 chances a game? It's what we like. I don't know if it's sustainable, this level of chances we're creating in the last games but it's what we want to go. We know that game to game is different strategies, different oppositions you are facing, sometimes you can go more aggressive, sometimes you have to wait a little bit more but I think we are being quite dangerous, especially in transitions. When we recover we are really two passes, everyone is running to the spaces, attacking very well the spaces and it's something that I would like to keep and even improve for the rest of the season. I don't want to finish on a low but you have conceded in injury time to drop points a few times now, is that something you can sort of nail down on reasons why? Yeah I remember Brentford's games and the other day the two games that at the end you lose four points and they are so difficult to achieve now but I feel we are finishing physically very well the games. I wouldn't go that side and especially the other day I didn't feel like we were conceding too much or we weren't getting lower, still we were maintaining quite far the opposition but it's true that sometimes you have to admit that they can make the play they did, probably I would go more in the other side and try whenever you are winning you are having the chances just go score, finish it and don't give them the chance to score the equalizer.
