At his pre-match conference yesterday, Bournemouth’s manager was asked if he considers Newcastle to be genuine title contenders. “It’s a big question,” he said. “They are not so far from Arsenal, for example, and Arsenal definitely are title challengers.

They are beating everyone, also they’ve done it in a run of games that was not easy: they beat Arsenal, [Manchester] United and Tottenham in this period. They’ve performed better than them but I’m not brave enough to say it [that they are title contenders].”
