We asked for your thoughts after Tuesday's defeat by Manchester City at Etihad Stadium.

Here are some of your comments:

Matt: Out of steam after a long season with a thin squad. Proud of all we have achieved. Hopefully the top-half finish is still in reach. Strength in depth required as we build the squad for 2025-26. Never a red card for Lewis Cook. The game is gone.

Peyer: Very poor by the Cherries. We seem to have lost the power and pace we played with earlier in the season. City deserved winners - no problem with either sending off. If we finish 11th or 12th it will have been a great season. Will be there to cheer the boys on Sunday. Up the Cherries.

James: We never really got into the game. We had a few moments but after the first goal it was always going to be an uphill battle as we struggle to break teams down that sit behind the ball. Frustrated that we couldn't keep our heads after they went down to 10 at 2-0. One goal and we would have been right back in the game but after Cook's red the defeat was inevitable. End of our Euro dream (for now). Difficult Tuesday night but also the best season ever!

Geoff: Another poor performance from Bournemouth. Midfield non-existent in the first half. The season has just run away, with just a whimper. A very disappointing watch yet again!

Paul: They were all off the pace from the start. Nothing to play for now before the game and they don't want to get injured to ruin any potential transfers they have in their minds. Some have had this mindset for weeks now and it's ruined what could have been a season for all time. Priority is to keep hold of Andoni Iraola going into the close season and extend his contract. He will clean house and shake us up ready for 2025-26.
