LEWIS COOK’S afternoon started badly and then nosedived.

Why the Bournemouth playmaker felt it necessary to do a keepy-uppy at kick-off nobody quite knew.

Whatever the cunning plan, it did not work. Cook miscontrolled the first touch and only booted the ball up-and-under style high into the SW6 sky. It barely made it beyond the centre circle.

If that was comical, no one on the visiting side was laughing at the same individual’s disastrous sixth-minute intervention.
