Match Report: Bournemouth 3-2 West Ham

Carroll conundrum

West Ham’s Andy Carroll got another 90 minutes under his belt yesterday, looking far fitter than he did against Chelsea on Monday night, although you wouldn’t have noticed.

Against the equally physical pair of Simon Francis and Steve Cook, the former Newcastle man did nothing of note on the south coast, leaving Andre Ayew, who has scored two in three from the bench and grabbed an assist against Antonio Conte’s side, wondering what else he has to do to get a start.
