Eddie Howe discussed Joelinton’s yellow card suspension for the Ipswich Town game when asked about the incident.
Eddie Howe said “It’s bizarre how things work. I’m talking to him from the side, he’s right in front of me and I’m saying ‘Joey, don’t get booked’, and he’s like ‘don’t worry I won’t’. Two minutes later he gets booked. You just couldn’t make it up. In some senses sometimes these things happen. I’m disappointed to lose him because he’s a player we need in every away game but at least he can now play free and play his normal game.”
Eddie Howe provided an update on Nick Pope’s injury after being asked about his status.
Eddie Howe said “He saw the specialist and the feedback is that he’s going to be out for around a month, so bad timing for us and for Nick because there are a lot of games in that four-week period. We hope that after that four weeks, he’ll be in good enough condition to play. He injured himself just passing a ball against Brentford. It was really innocuous-looking, it was a left-footed pass, but his knee didn’t feel particularly good afterwards, so that’s the plan.”
