Alan Smith

We lost our first two games last season, so we know the harsh nature of the division.

But we have to grow very quickly because the games don't get any easier.

Eddie, thanks for talking to us.

Thank you.

So two defeats to start the season again for Bournemouth.

Crystal Palace away next.

Alan Pardew was here watching on today.

Then West Brom at home after the international break.

They finished the season, Jamie, with one win in the last eight.

When does this become a worry for Eddie Howe?

Not quite yet.

I think you're still waiting for Callum Wilson to get back to the level he was last year.

He obviously had a really bad cruciate ligament injury.

You're hoping Jordan Knight finds some form.

He struggled in his first two games.

I was expecting big things from him.

It's still very early in his Bournemouth career, but he's got to do the basics better.

Every time he gets it, he's taking so many touches.

There are elements of it that have been OK, but you start to think, well, if Matt Ritchie's selling him, will that be a mistake?

I thought he did a great job for Bournemouth last year.
