Notable Remarks from Nico Gonzalez
Speaking about the weight of the game: "It's a vital game. We are playing a strong side and now they are in second place. I'm optimistic we can be happy when it's over."
Regarding the threat Bournemouth pose: "We understand their style, their intensity and combative they are. They work tirelessly extensively and make every game very difficult."
Regarding today as the opening of three home games back-to-back: "Beginning with a win now would be brilliant. We have three really important matches before the break for internationals and hopefully we get the hat-trick of victories. Let's focus on today and afterwards we will look at the next matches."
