    I am expecting Dean Henderson to be on the bench for Manchester United this afternoon.

    It is likely to be his last involvement for United before joining Crystal Palace.

    Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir is expected to move to United as Henderson's replacement.

    Lee: Maddison has been outstanding this first half. Completely controlling the game. What a first few games he's had for Spurs. Bargain of the summer surely?

    Ashwin: Look the manager at Spurs. 2 - 3 games and Spurs are already firing on cylinders despite losing their best scorer. Eric Ten Hag after 1 season is still finding his style

    Nicholas: Richarlison just needs that one goal and the confidence would come back

    Have to say Spurs look a better team without Kane. They're playing with more fluidity in attack

    Chris

    Why none of the big four picked up Maddison is beyond me? He’s a Rolls Royce of a footballer who will only get even better with the right coaching. Could Ange be the one to get some consistency from him?

    It's been a very exciting first half and I am amazed there hasn't been another goal. Tottenham have just failed to apply the final touch. Bournemouth are still in this game, and with this scoreline there's every chance they could get back into it.

    James Maddison was the 166th player to net a Premier League goal for Tottenham Hotspur (excl. own goals), most out of all clubs, surpassing Newcastle United (165) and West Ham United (165).

    Bournemouth 0-1 Tottenham

    A chance right at the death for Bournemouth! Philip Billing has the ball at his feet after a ricochet but bends wide from just inside the area.

    The whistle goes instantly.

    Bournemouth 0-1 Tottenham

    Hmmm, interesting. Richarlison runs at full stretch, toes it past Lloyd Kelly and hurdles the challenge. I don't think there was any contact and Richarlison is not going to get to the ball but the defender is booked for it.

  9. INJURY TIMEpublished at 13:16 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    Bournemouth 0-1 Tottenham (45 mins)

    Lovely again, James Maddison coming deep to receive the ball, spinning his man and then with a shot on he tries to pick out Pedro Porro instead. Porro can't collect and there will be five minutes added on.

  10. GREAT SAVE!published at 42 mins

    Bournemouth 0-1 Tottenham

    Real intense end to the first half. Antoine Semenyo bullies the ball back from Yves Bissouma, Ryan Christie picks up the pieces and shoots from 25 yards or so, it's on target and true as an arrow but Guglielmo Vicario is equal to it, flying to his left to push it out.

  11. CLOSE!published at 40 mins

    Bournemouth 0-1 Tottenham

    Corrrr that's a good ball in! James Maddison batters in a free-kick from wide to the far post, Richarlison gets up to win the header but can only find the side-netting.

    Quite amazing that didn't go in! Richarlison couldn't quite get good enough contact on it. The home supporters, however, are furious about the challenge on the edge of the 18-yard box at the other end.

    Well, how did that not go in?! Bournemouth want a foul at one end but play goes on, Richarlison is slid in on goal but he never really has it under control. He goes round Neto with a touch that is either genius or fluke, before a defender gets back to stop a tap-in. Chaotic stuff!

  14. Postpublished at 35 mins

    Bournemouth 0-1 Tottenham

    Philip Billing gets up well to win a header but can only steer it straight at the Spurs keeper. It's been drawn to my attention that he's got just 'Philip' on his back. You can get away with that as a Brazilian flair player, but not as a clogger from Huddersfield.

    Good from Bournemouth, much better. Justin Kluivert comes inside and beats a man before finding Antoine Semenyo on the right, he drives into the area and gets a shot off which is well charged down.

    I'm trying to stop mentioning him in every post but James Maddison now whips in a brilliant ball that is asking to be finished. Nobody in all white can oblige him though.

    James Maddison's first away Premier League goal for Leicester also came at Bournemouth, by the way. He's been great so far, as Dejan Kulusevski now dances through to win a corner.

    Matty: As much as it pains me to say as an Arsenal fan, I really thought Spurs would struggle without Kane, but Postecoglou has got them playing exciting football for the first time in years.

    Adam G: I know it’s early days, but can you just imagine the thought of Spurs winning a trophy without Kane?

    It could be two! James Maddison slices Bournemouth open with a lovely pass, Son picks out Pape Sarr in the middle but this time his first touch is not good and his shot is tame.

    Bournemouth's reaction to going behind has been good. They've kept Spurs pushed back and won a few corners, without testing Guglielmo Vicario yet.
