Analysis: Cherries flying after slow start
Bournemouth players celebrate scoring

Everything seems to be coming together for Bournemouth following a tough start to the season.

After returning from the international break with a 5-1 defeat by Chelsea, Marco Rose's side claimed impressive wins against Sturm Graz and AC Milan in the Europa League either side of beating Sunderland for their first Premier League victory of the campaign. Now they have won four on the bounce.

Though the Cherries only saw 37% of the ball at Old Trafford, they looked far more dangerous with it as Marcus Tavernier and Rayan repeatedly caused issues down the flanks.

Rayan showed supreme composure and technique to volley in the opener, before Tavernier showed desire and hunger to continue into the box and score his fifth league goal of the season.

Though Senne Lammens left Evanilson with an unguarded goal to aim for, the Brazilian forward did brilliantly to curl the ball into the net from 20 yards to notch his fourth goal in his past five outings in all competitions.

His return to form mirrors that of his club, who turn their attention to an EFL Cup tie against Aston Villa on Wednesday, 28 October (19:45 GMT), before playing Leeds next Saturday.
