Bournemouth midfielder Cook happy with Prem return

Bournemouth midfielder Lewis Cook says they can be happy with this season's campaign.

The Cherries finished mid-table in their first season back in the Premier League.

Cook told the Daily Echo: “I had a spell out, but it's not as long as I've had in the past.

“Playing 30-something games, in the best league in the world, I can't complain at all.

“I've really enjoyed it and am just looking forward to next year."

Discussing his lack of game-time from March onwards, Cook added: “The lads have been playing unbelievable.

“We can't complain with having this many points four games before the end of the season.

“It's part of football. Whoever has got the shirt is going to try and keep it.

“It's my job to try and keep training, keep working hard and keep enjoying my football to try and get back in.

“But it's part of football and we're definitely all in this together.

“I think the lads played a big part in the season, whether it be the start, the middle, or the end. We're a big team and we're together, definitely."
