Speaking after the 2-2 draw against Huddersfield Town, manager Eddie Howe was quoted in the Bournemouth Evening Echo as saying: "The lads showed great character to come back and it was a really good response from them. I think the display was more evidence to the players that we are a good side. It wasn’t just the result but the manner in which it came about. Without being disrespectful to Huddersfield, we played all the football. We played from back to front, which is sometimes the hardest way to play, and I was delighted with how the players performed and acquitted themselves".
