Ryan Christie: No-one relaxing here at Bournemouth

Ryan Christie says no-one will be relaxing at Bournemouth after victory at Leicester City on Saturday.

It was Cherries' fourth win in eight games, taking them out of the bottom three with eight games remaining.

Christie told the Daily Echo: "I think going into the game we were confident.

“Obviously when you're playing against a team that's round-about you in the league, you feel like you can have more attacking threats to the game.

“It's a game we're desperate to come away with three points on the road as well.

“We've managed to do that. Not going to get ahead of ourselves. There's so many games in April and still so much work to do, but the old cliche, game by game, go to Tottenham again next week, and bring that kind of confidence again.

“I think right now, obviously we're just trying to focus on ourselves. I think it's easy for a lot of people to write us off, but we certainly don't have that feeling inside. (Leicester) is a perfect example.

“We're feeling that we can come here and dominate the ball and bring our positives to the game. I think we did that in the most part.

“But the mindset within, even with the new owners, everybody is desperate, to first and foremost stay in the league and then really push and see how far we can get."
