An average performance. We didn't look like creating much until the set piece goal. Then Bournemouth had to come out of their shell which suited us. Had we some players who could finish, we should have won comfortably. Chambers did ok. He kept it simple which is all about what you can expect for now. I still don't understand the point of leaving Ozil and Ramsey on for another 90.
Should've scored 4 or 5, but it was a decent win and a fairly good performance.
Some useful rotation finally, with Gabriel playing really well, Gibbs/Chamberlain reasonable and only Chambers looking a bit shaky. Needs a loan spell because he just doesn't have the experience now at his age.
Gibbs didn't fuck up, Chambers did OK and appeared more confident as the game went on, the Ox worked hard, made some good runs and passes and Gabriel was aggressive, passed pretty well and was a threat in their box all game.
For once our crossing was pretty good, but unless the ball landed on the head of the French lampost, glued to the penalty spot not a lot came of it.
There was one instance when the Ox did brilliantly to get to the dead ball line inside the box, but, instead of busting a gut to get to the near post, Giroud stood on his heels and watched.
The last couple of games have demonstrated that, despite swinging a leg and getting a couple of goals in recent matches, he really weakens other aspects of our game.

Never been so underwhelmed to be top of the league.
I feel the same way. I'm happy that we are top, but after the drubbing we got at Southampton it just sours it.
Oh and they couldn't beat the might West Ham
