Bournemouth fans are singing about Europe after being humbled by Manchester United


With Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham out of contention, can Bournemouth qualify for Europe for the first time in their history?

Their fans think so – they were singing about European qualification during the victory at Old Trafford.

“I think they should really enjoy it because it doesn’t happen often to come to these stadiums,” added Iraola.

“I came as a player and it’s difficult to get this kind of result, so obviously we have to be happy, they have to be happy.

“But we know what it costs to win one Premier League game, just one against anyone.

“Winning one game in the Premier League is very difficult, so we have to continue like that otherwise the result will be worse, for sure.”

In December 2023, Bournemouth owner Bill Foley said he was confident the club could qualify for Europe within five years.

He recently told BBC Sport: “We have high expectations, but we are patient.

“Our goal this year is modest. Can we move into the top eight or nine, maybe even sneak into Europe?

“Our real aim is to play in Europe, to give our players a chance to experience Europe and to do that with Bournemouth a bit.”

Cherries fans may need to cancel their passports if their team continue to be as good as they were at Old Trafford.
