Toure taking on Smith.

Look, listen, the week we've had, Monday night away to Chelsea, disappointing result at the end, you know, and then all the way to Romania on Thursday, or Wednesday, travel back Thursday, get back five in the morning and to come and win at home, it's a great feeling, great feeling.

Yeah, look, listen, at the end of the day, a win's a win, I've said.

We're moving to a new stadium and we ain't just going to get wins given because we moved here.

We have to earn them.

And today, that's what we've done.

I didn't think Bournemouth had a couple of chances at the end, but I didn't think they had that much.

All in all, it was probably a fair game, but the big man at the end popped up and I did say to him two minutes before the end, go and be a hero.

He went and was one, so great.

Is that right?

Did you take his advice?

Yeah, I did.

Yeah, look, listen, we lost Dimi in the week for this game.

Obviously, you know, in the pre-season with Manu and Cresswell, and obviously we lost Andy on Thursday night as well, Sofian Fuguli.

So it's been tough for us with the Europa League as well, but as I said, we ain't going to get given points here, we have to earn them.

Bournemouth were a good team, we watched them against United, and up until the mistake, they were in the game.

So we knew it was going to be tough today, no easy games in this league, but the three points is extra special when it's the first game here.

Listen, as you say, he didn't do too much today.

He had a couple of shots that he had to pick up, but you need your goalies in this league, especially last-minute concentration, and he managed to keep two out of the net and three points at the end of the day, and that's what it means to us.

Well done, guys.
