Bournemouth Morning Round-Up, Sunday 8th November 2026: Cherries Riding High on Seven-Match Winning Run Ahead of Ipswich Trip
Good morning, Cherries fans. There's a real spring in the step around the club this morning after it emerged the side have now won seven matches in a row, with the Bournemouth Echo reporting that the squad feel they've found the "five per cent we missed" to turn good performances into victories (Bournemouth Echo).
Marco Rose has been in a positive mood when discussing his options at the back, with praise for James Hill and the depth he now has to choose from in central defence (Bournemouth Echo). There was a more cautious note on the attacking front, though, as Rose confirmed that Kroupi "still needs time" before he's ready to be considered for a starting role (Bournemouth Echo).
Looking ahead, Rose has already begun previewing the trip to Ipswich, flagging up the threat the Tractor Boys are likely to pose when the two sides meet (Bournemouth Echo). It sounds as though the manager is taking nothing for granted despite his side's rich vein of form heading into the game.
Away from the first team, it was a tougher night for the Under-18s, who were beaten by Reading in the U18 Premier League Cup (AFCB.co.uk). Not the result the young Cherries will have wanted, but all eyes this week will be on the first team as they look to extend their winning run on the road at Ipswich.
