AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe says he will not ditch his daring game style in the Premier League.
The Dorset club essentially secured promotion to the top flight by playing a swashbuckling brand and although there will be a few things to be tinkered with, Howe insists the elegance and panache will not be changed.
"I don't think we'd forsake our principles," he said.
"If you could guarantee me success playing a different way, being more direct, crossing the balls earlier etc etc, we'd look at it. But it doesn't guarantee you success.
"In the Premier League, the best way to win is to dominate the ball. It'll be more difficult. But why not? We've proved this season we're a good team and deserve to be here on merit. We'll carry on like that.
"If you rip it up and start again in the Premier League, it's too difficult. We believe it can work. That will be decided on the pitch."
