It is understandable from a attacker who has a half-dozen strikes and three assists who is pleasurable to watch. Nonetheless, his side are in an awkward spot, having undergone a role reversal: it is the relegation battlers West Ham who arrive on back-to-back victories, whereas Bournemouth have been beaten seven to one over two games in their last two matches after an promising beginning to the season.
