Bournemouth were narrowly beat by Liverpool and Justin Kluivert believes that good times are coming for himself and his side.
Kluivert joined from Roma this summer and has gone onto make two substitute appearances so far for the Cherries.
His side lost 3-1 to Liverpool at Anfield, despite being one up and having a goal ruled out, they couldn’t hold on for any points.
Kluivert reflected on the game and the season after the match.
What has Justin Kluivert said?
Firstly discussing the Liverpool loss the winger described it as ‘unlucky’: “We started very good, we tried.
“Beautiful, a good start. That’s what you want, to start like that, to get 1-0 in front and we had a great start.”
It was a tough game for Kluivert to come into as he came on moments after the score hit 3-1: “I was waiting and they scored to make it 3-1, that’s always difficult.
“They’re in their motion and to come on is difficult. But I tried to score goals and that is the only thing that counts.”
The way that the Cherries are playing under Andoni Iraola has been highly comended.
This wasn’t lost on Kluivert: “It’s a big statement and as you saw, that’s not easy because that is also the style they like,” said Kluivert.
“But we tried and that’s what we could do. We gave our best and we didn’t succeed. But maybe in the next game.”
The loss hasn’t disheartened the new signing however, it has inspired him to kick on: “I find it good. I can’t wait to maybe get more minutes.
“But the season has just started so I’m happy to be here and looking forward to a lot more games”
Looking forward to the rest of the season, it is clear there is a great mindset within the squad at the Vitality.
No one is dwelling on this loss: “We are ambitious. On Saturday we didn’t get the best of it, but in the next game we go again, 100 per cent.”
Tottenham Hotspur come next, another tough test for Iraola’s men.
