Bournemouth continued their phenomenal form by extending their unbeaten run to sixteen Premier League games. One goal was enough to secure all three points at Craven Cottage, and it's now looking highly likely the Cherries will be competing in Europe for the first time in the club's history.

Djordje Petrovic
That's now eleven clean sheets for Petrovic this season, and he has really come into form at a pivotal time. Another assured and commanding performance from the Serbian, he's deservedly earning praise from the Cherries fans for his recent form. 8/10
Adam Smith
The skipper and Cherries stalwart was back in the eleven and continued to roll back the years. After a shaky start, Smithy settled down and showed all the qualities that's cemented him as a Bournemouth club legend. Fought throughout and showed clear leadership and professionalism to help get the side over the line. 8/10
James Hill
Hill being colossal at the heart of the Cherries defence is becoming a formality of late. Once again he stood up and performed superbly, it's why his introduction to the Bournemouth eleven has felt so critical in the Cherries' unbeaten run. 8/10
Marcos Senesi
Simply sensational. Marcos won everything defensively and helped the Cherries progress up the pitch throughout, he was faultless all day. Although unlikely, Bournemouth fans are keeping everything crossed that their Argentine Gladiator may have a change of heart and extend his contract, because he has been all pretty much perfect of late. My player of the match again. 10/10
Adrien Truffert
Cherries fans just can't seem to get enough of their French full back. Adrien with another all action display, rarely putting a foot wrong. He'll definitely be getting a fair share of 'player of the season' votes, because it's been a remarkable first campaign for the left back. 9/10
Alex Scott
The England national team would be silly not to have Alex on the plane this summer. Scott was as integral as ever in the heart of the Cherries midfield, had to get through a lot of work and he never shirks any of that responsibility. He's fast becoming the complete Premier League midfielder. 9/10
Tyler Adams
Despite being named amongst the substitutes, Tyler was needed earlier than anticipated following Ryan Christie's sending off. It says all it needs too that no Cherries fan was concerned when Adams was called upon, his reliability and composure in midfield is a joy to watch. Big end of the season for Tyler now and he looks more than ready to deliver. 8/10
Rayan
The Brazilian sensation stepped up to produce the match winning moment, which made it three goals in three games for him. Rayan feels inevitable at the moment, he frightens the life out of his opponent and is delivering impressive numbers already. A powerhouse from wide who is a constant threat when on the pitch. 9/10
Marcus Tavernier
An energetic and assured performance from Tavernier, running himself into the ground for his team mates. The ever reliable and consistent wide man is continuing to be a cemented started for Andoni and it's clear to see why. 8/10
Eli Kroupi
Following the early red card, Kroupi was quickly tasked with leading the line on his own and his desire and graft would have delighted Andoni. A smart effort nearly saw him again on the scoresheet only for his strike to cannon off the crossbar. 8/10
- Tough days for Ryan Christie and Evanilson. Christie was dismissed in the first half for a silly tackle, which in turn meant Evanilson was sacrificed as the early sub.
