Solace Sunday
Afternoon and welcome to a Sunday where two teams could do with some solace.
Bournemouth’s tilt for European football has taken a significant halt in recent weeks—one win in 10—with the hunting elite circling ahead of the summer.
This week, teenage sensation Dean Huijsen has been earmarked as the top centre-back target for various clubs across the continent and domestically. Rumours around Andoni Iraola and Spurs continue to fester.
Antoine Semenyo is on the wishlist of today’s opponent, and maybe the biggest appreciation for Bouremouth’s season is that many would be enticing pieces for United’s rebuild. Or maybe it’s just a sign of the times.
United’s immediate focus will remain on the Europa League, with a state of paralysis in the league all but certain.
However, pride, even when it comes to attracting the Semenyos of the world, should stead firm in Ruben Amorim’s mind.
Kick off on the South Coast: 2pm.
