Bournemouth defender Steve Cook: Injury home rehab not good

Bournemouth defender Steve Cook is maintaining his focus on rehabilitation at home.

Cook suffered a hamstring injury during Cherries' final game at Liverpool.

He told the Daily Echo: "It is not ideal. Some days the motivation to do it is quite low as well but I have to do it. It is down me.

"I will only be selling myself short if I don't do it properly and as far as I can I have got a schedule to do and targets to hit.

"The only person that is going to suffer is me, so sometimes I have to battle against myself and get it done."

He added: "That is the challenge. It is fighting that and getting the will to do it but it is one of them.

"It is quite nice to try to have a routine as well, so my week is pretty much still planned as usual or as best it can be, just at home.

"A lot of it is over FaceTime, with the strength work and I would say field work but I am doing as much as I can in the garden."
