BOURNEMOUTH will be determined to recover from the Liverpool horror show against Wolverhampton Wanderers – and they’ll be doing it without Scott Parker.
Parker, 41, was sacked on Tuesday morning despite leading the Cherries to Premier League promotion at the first attempt.
But the Bournemouth owners were left no choice having witnessed their side crumble to Manchester City and Arsenal before being annihilated 9-0 by Liverpool.
However, the south coast outfit have a huge opportunity to rejuvenate themselves against a Wolves side who are yet to secure a win this season.
And Wolves hearts will be dampened having just missed out on three points courtesy of Allan Saint-Maximin’s stoppage time screamer for Newcastle.
