Bournemouth are in deep trouble at the moment in the Premier League having lost all their three matches so far in the campaign this term. They are presently placed at 18th position in the league table and find themselves in a tumultuous situation.
The Cherries have already conceded five goals this season in a dismal display of defensive callousness, which has led them to the current position in the campaign. However, they need all their players to fire in order to get them some favourable results in the forthcoming matches and the contract extension of their English ace Charlie Daniels might be the beacon of hope the South Coast have been looking for.
The 31-year-old defender has been one of the mainstays in the defence for the Cherries over the last few seasons and has been one of the most influencing characters in the team. The Englishman has put down his signature on the contract paper to prolong his stay at the club by three more years and help keep the opposition at bay as much as possible.
The full back has been a part of the team which made it into the Premier League in the 2014/15 season since the summer of 2012. He has played a crucial role in the last term as well in the backline for the Cherries, making it possible for them to end their season at the 9th position on the league table, attracting praises from a number of experts from all over England.
However, the start of this season has not been conducive for the South Coast club so far, having gone down against all their opponents they have come across. However, Daniels has been the standout performer for the side in all the three matches and has tried his level best to initiate attacks on the opposition.
The skilful left back has gone into attacks as well and has shown his mettle by taking on some of the best defenders. His darting run into the attacking third has been one of the most telling factors for the opposition. The 31-year-old’s pace and prowess paid off in the last match against the formidable Manchester City side, as he became the solo goal scorer for his side so far in the Premier League.
The contract extension will definitely be a big boost for the Cherries as they look for inspiration to get back to winning ways in the forthcoming matches of the season. Can he help keep them aloof?
