Bournemouth manager Marco Rose, spoke to BBC Match of the Day after his side's defeat by Chelsea: "If you concede two times so early...it's too much against Chelsea. We didn't react in the right way. It was a really bad performance by us today. The last games we had some good performance but today we struggled.

"Three points after six games, we need a reaction. Everyone has to take the responsibility to do better. We knew it was going to be a demanding season. We have to stick together and face reality. The reality is we have three points after six games.

"Even after we scored I felt we maybe get back in the game but we were not clinical enough. It was a tough game but our performance was not good enough.

"We are still a good squad. We have good players. Some of them need to get into a rhythm [after injury]. It is important to suffer no more injuries. We need to win a game to get more confidence."
