Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has predicted Lloyd Kelly will have a big future at the club.

The summer signing from Bristol City made his first Premier League start in Wednesday's loss to Newcastle.

"I thought Lloyd did well. I thought he used the ball well, defended well, athletically he was good," Howe said.

"He hasn't had a lot of football, as with a lot of our players and I think that's a contributing factor – they are on the pitch but probably not absolutely where they need to be.

"I think there's a number of players in the same position.

"But Lloyd can be very pleased and he's got a very bright future ahead of him."
