Bournemouth

Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo has been speaking to Sky Sports: "A lot happened. We have just got back in the changing room and everyone is pretty angry that the second goal didn't count. We have seen the replay and it has come off his shoulder, so I feel like the referee has made the wrong decision. But, we will take the point and continue building.

"I feel like we have been hard done by. It has hit his shoulder but we can't do anything about it now, so we have to look ahead to the next game."

"We showed our style. We like to press and make it uncomfortable for teams who come here. The plan worked well. That is my style, I like to make players uncomfortable. It is my style and I'm enjoying it."

On manager Andoni Iraola's style: "We know what he is like. He is a brave manager and we, as a team, collectively work together and make sure we are working together. We are going to continue being brave."

Bournemouth goalscorer Marcus Tavernier has been speaking after the draw: "We have to be careful with what we say but there is a decision that I thought was a goal. We have to stand by it and I think we can be pleased with the performance today.

"I feel like in the first half, we were definitely on top. When they got the goal, we responded well and created that chance to get the goal and three points, but it wasn't meant to be."

On scoring his goal: "I want to try and score as many goals as I can. Now Dominic [Solanke] has left, it is up to us to score more goals. That is what we're trying to do."

On new signing Evanilson: "I think he is technically very good and, when the ball is around the box, his finishing is very good. We are expecting good things from him."

On Bournemouth goalkeeper Neto: "He is the reason we come away with a point today. A big round of applause to him for keeping the ball out of the back of the net."

Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches this season, against a variety of guests.

For week two, he takes on Make Me A Mixtape hosts Clara Amfo and Jordan Stephens.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2

The Eddie Howe derby. It will be interesting to see if Evanilson plays for Bournemouth given they have spent £40.2m on him.

Newcastle huffed and puffed and found a way last week at home against Southampton and Bournemouth drew at Forest, they probably will feel they should have won the game.

Based on last week, I would err towards Bournemouth but I am a big fan of Newcastle forward Alexander Isak and I think boss Eddie Howe will return to his old club and win it.

Amfo's prediction: 1-2

Stephens' prediction: 3-2

Newcastle are another reason we did not win the league last year. There were three refereeing errors for their winning goal at St James' Park. That's not the reason I'm going with Bournemouth to beat them, though.

This season, English top-flight clubs are trialling a new financial system that limits spending based on the earnings of the bottom side, designed to "protect the competitive balance of the Premier League".

Football finance expert Rob Wilson tells The Football News Show why, if permanently introduced, it could make the top Premier League sides less competitive against their European counterparts.

Bournemouth are weighing up a loan move for exiled Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

The 29-year-old is surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge and is training with the "loan group" under loan technical coach Carlo Cudicini.

The move is internally considered complicated at the south coast club as the Spain international's high wages - estimated to be about £200,000-per-week - present a problem in negotiations.

Chelsea would also expect Kepa, who remains the world's most expensive goalkeeper after joining the club for £72m in 2018, to extend his contract by at least a year and that extension would come with a wage reduction.

That extension would allow the Blues to potentially cash in on Kepa at a later date if he does well on loan, but would also require compromises from all parties on how to cover his wages to facilitate the move.

Kepa spent last season on loan at Real Madrid, who were interested in re-signing him, but only if Ukraine international Andriy Lunin opted to leave.

Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittihad also cooled interest in Kepa last month having held initial talks to sign him.

Chelsea are looking to offload up to 15 players before the transfer deadline next week, with the likes of Raheem Sterling, Ben Chilwell, Trevoh Chalobah and Romelu Lukaku available for sale.

Kepa is an option being considered alongside Arsenal's Aaron Ramsdale as Bournemouth enter talks on multiple fronts to strengthen their options for manager Andoni Iraola.

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola says new signing Evanilson will "for sure" be involved in Saturday's visit of Newcastle for the first time since his club-record move from Porto.

Evanilson, 24, scored 60 goals in 154 appearances for Porto during his four years in Portugal and arrived last week in a deal worth £40.2m.

"Evanilson trained well and he will for sure be involved in the game," Iraola said in his pre-match news conference.

"I expect that he starts well if he has the chance to play.

"Hopefully he takes everything quickly that we are trying to tell him, it's difficult when they arrive - particularly with the language but he has trained well.

"We don't want to give him all the information, it's probably too much. But we want to give him the most important things that are specific to him and his position."

With star striker Dominic Solanke departing the club for Tottenham earlier this summer, Iraola will be hoping Evanlison hits the ground running and fills the the void left by last season's top scorer.

"I think he's obviously got a great profile, he's comfortable finishing but also help us in the link-up play," Iraola added. "Technically he is sharp, he will help the overall offensive game of the team, not only the finishing side."

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premier League game at home against Newcastle United (14:00 BST).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• Iraola said he has "good injury news" and expects everyone apart from the three players who had surgery over the summer - Enes Unal, Tyler Adams and David Brooks - to be available.

• He added that Daniel Jebbison, who has been linked with Watford, is still a Bournemouth player and expected to be involved in some capacity against Newcastle.

• On new signing Evanilson, who was not involved in the opening draw with Nottingham Forest: "He has trained well this week, normally with the team. I think he will be for sure involved in the game. We expect him to start well. He gets everything."

• On opponents Newcastle and their opening weekend win over Southampton: "It's not a lot of help for us because the first game they played was very conditioned by the red card. They are very good and experienced players. When you see Bruno [Guimaraes], Joelinton, [Alexander] Isak, [Anthony] Gordon - even if they are playing with one less they will always be a threat."

• He said retuning Magpies defender Lloyd Kelly played "at a very high level" for Bournemouth: "He was very good for us,. Before I arrived and last season he was phenomenal. I wish him all the best. Obviously I don't want him to play well on Sunday but he is a very good defender and it will be tough for whoever he has in front of him."

• On marking the club's 125-year anniversary against former manager Eddie Howe's side: "It's probably very fitting that Eddie comes with Newcastle. He is a big part of the history of the club. 125 years is a lot of years, a lot of history. It is special to be part of such a special moment."

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has never beaten his former club Bournemouth in the Premier League in four attempts (drawn three, lost one).

The Cherries are one of three sides that Howe has faced but never beaten, along with Luton Town (drawn one, lost one) and Manchester City (drawn one, lost 15).

Bournemouth will be encouraged with their display at Nottingham Forest as they began life after Dominic Solanke with a draw which extends their unbeaten run at the City Ground to five visits.

The Cherries signed Porto forward Evanilson less than a week after Solanke's departure to Tottenham, suggesting that he was always high on their shortlist of replacements.

But with the Brazilian not signed in time to play at Forest, the lack of a central striker was palpable as wide men Antoine Semenyo, Luis Sinisterra and Dango Ouattara all took turns in playing down the middle against Forest's massive centre-backs Murillo and Willy Boly.

Semenyo tends to play as a striker for Ghana, although his best Cherries displays have come in wide positions and he popped up on both wings at times at Forest but found himself in the right place to lash home the late equaliser.

At the other end, Marcos Senesi's illness meant an immediate debut for Dean Huijsen, who took to English football like a (very tall) duck to water. I read one fan comment suggesting it was the best Cherries debut by a teenage centre-back since Rio Ferdinand joined on loan in 1996.

Should you prefer bald statistics to anecdotal evidence, Huijsen won nine aerial duels at Forest, the most by any top-flight player on the opening weekend, and the most by any teenager in a single Premier League game in the past 10 seasons.

However, the goalkeeping debate which was lurking for much of last season has resurfaced after Neto spilled Ryan Yates' shot into the path of Chris Wood for Forest's opener. There remains a divide among the fanbase between the merits of club captain Neto and the popular homegrown Mark Travers.

And despite a lot of chatter about other goalkeepers - including former Cherries favourite Aaron Ramsdale - no deal appears imminent.

Following Bournemouth's record points tally in last season's Premier League campaign, the Cherries will have their work cut out to repeat that feat this time around having lost their top scorer Dom Solanke to Tottenham Hotspur.

Interest in the frontman was anticipated by the club, and as a result, they acted quickly to this departure by signing Brazilian striker Evanilson. Replacing Solanke was always going to be an uphill task for the club, but in Evanilson, they may have just done exactly that.

Being called up to the Brazilian national squad is certainly no mean feat and following an impressive season with Porto, which included a Champions League hat-trick, Bournemouth may well have pulled off a real coup here. Power, pace and a vital goal-scoring touch, Evanilson is a player that could become a real fans' favourite in the near future.

The "record signing" headline that this story produced says all it needs to. The powers that be clearly believe Evanilson is going to be the one to solve the issue of losing their main man in attack. In coach Andoni Iraola, Bournemouth will continue to play an aggressive and offensive brand of football which will surely provide the new centre-forward with plenty of opportunities to grab some goals in England.

With Evanilson alongside the likes of Antoine Semenyo, Justin Kluivert and Luis Sinisterra, Bournemouth fans have every right to be excited despite Solanke’s departure, as there are seemingly plenty of attacking options to thrill supporters.

It may take some time to adapt to the new system and new country, but Bournemouth fans are starting to believe the gutting loss of Solanke may now not be as bad as once feared. Time will tell.

We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth.

Here are some of your comments:

Forest fans

Doug: Here we go again - leading in a game and we give a late goal away again. It's going to be a long, hard season if we can't close out a game when we are ahead. We also still have players who are simply not good enough to play at this level. We need to be a lot sharper at the back.

Mike: Looked good in the first half. However, as soon as the wingers went off our outlet disappeared and we looked flat and out of ideas. At least we stopped the rot on the opening day.

Steven: Forest sat back and allowed Bournemouth to get a foothold despite being by far the better and more imaginative team. We cannot play this way against the top 20 teams. Some very positive signs in first half, though. Feel so sad for Danilo!

Bournemouth fans

Clive: Only one team in the second half. We ran Forest ragged. They looked out on their feet. What a 19-year-old centre-half we have!

Paul: Same old, same old Neto. Always poor and costing Cherries positive results. How does he keep his place? Such a shame as all the rest of the team must be downhearted after his mistake again. For everyone’s sake, please bring in Travers.

Keith: Scrappy game but a good point - and so much better once the substitutes were on. We will improve next week with Evanilson playing.
