Gameweek 25 concludes at the Vitality Stadium with Bournemouth paying host to Pep Guardiola’s Mancheseter City.

Once again Pep’s teamsheet steals the pre-match headlines, with Gabriel Jesus preferred as his central striker, leaving Sergio Aguero on the bench for a third successive outing.

Transferred in by more than 210,000 ahead of Gameweek 25, Jesus is skippered by 156,000 tonight up against a Cherries defence that has shipped more Premier League goals than any other side in 2017, conceding three or more in eight of their last twelve matches.

That defence is at last bolstered tonight by an array of returnees, as Charlie Daniels, Simon Francis and Adam Smith all overcome knocks to claim berths.

Elsewhere, manager Eddie Howe prefers Jordan Ibe to Junior Stanislas on the right flank, as Josh King again leads the attack.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      I think that you're wrong - he speaks his mind and I think he's a refreshing change. He says what he thinks and he doesn't mind arguing his case. Good on him - he's got attitude.

        He's incredibly inarticulate and just repeats the same thing over and over again. Most of which is rubbish. Fair enough speaking your mind but I don't think he has anything interesting or different to say.

        This is nonsense sorry. Read football 365 mediawatch articles, he regularly appears for his tired clichés and reactionary premature opinions. A clickbait journalist, if that's his own mind then I feel genuinely sorry for him

            Yeah, of course this week with McAuley's freakish goal. I don't think my whole season can be filed until "fortunate" on the basis of one week.
