It's funny seeing two different approaches to staying up in such stark contrast.

Bournemouth knows they're going to get pumped by some of the good teams, this is an accepted fact. But they think their team was good enough to get promoted so they think their team has a chance to get points every time they play about 12 of the other teams. Maybe they're wrong but many teams have stayed in the top flight by trying this before. They got pumped today but ultimately this doesn't hurt their season that badly, they were getting 0 points from this fixture anyway. 0 doesn't change by playing a little better.

However I would rather try Forest's way even though we know that you can spend a lot of money like QPR did and still get relegated. Villa did it too and stayed up but only barely. That being said Forest are definitely taking a chance. Not all of these players have big resale value.
Bournemouth is the 21st spender in Europe.

Edit : 20th in fact

Looked like it maybe hit White's arm, but it was the arm between the body and ground so by rule that's not a handball.

Also what a genius idea to have Jesus mark Mitrovic on a corner lol
