'Iraola has made us a joy to watch'

Here is what our Bournemouth fan Tom Jordan had to say on questions put by our Nottingham Forest supporter Saveena Johal.

Considering your current form and home record against us in recent seasons, how are you viewing this match?

We are on a fantastic run and we have to be confident. Having said that, Forest are one of a few sides who are in just as remarkable form as us. Considering our injury crisis and somewhat surprising four points gained from Chelsea and Newcastle, I think I would be happy with a point.

We do have an impressive record against the Reds but this current Forest side are a different animal. I actually believe both sides would be content to share the spoils in this one.

How much do you feel injuries have impacted your season, and is this a worry for you going into the Forest game?

Our long injury list has been infuriating this season but, equally, the way some of the fringe players have stepped up is a huge positive. We have dealt with being without so many first-teamers incredibly well, but with a tight game expected, I do fear we will have fewer options to make the changes required in the latter stages.

We are known for having scorers and impactful substitutions regularly, but it is very much anticipated that our bench will be filled with goalkeepers and development players for this one.

Both Forest and Bournemouth are having a great time this season - what has been the best part of your campaign so far?

In terms of moments and matches themselves, there have been countless games to remember. Beating Manchester City for the first time in the top flight, scoring three goals in nine minutes to win at Everton, battering an in-form Newcastle on their own patch, and even hammering Manchester United at Old Trafford... again!

But, in general, it has just been the style of football that we feel fortunate enough to witness. Andoni Iraola has made us a joy to watch. We are so brave and offensive, and Cherries fans feel very lucky to be entertained every week.
