Bournemouth players are backing caretaker manager Gary O'Neil for the permanent job.
After their 0-0 draw with Brentford, Dominic Solanke backed his suitability for the long-term job.
"We all know Gary really well," said the Bournemouth forward. "He has been with us for a while now and you can see how well we are doing on the pitch under him. He has got our respect and if that's the case (that he gets the job) we will be more than happy."
Left back Jordan Zemura also added his voice of support for O'Neil.
"Gary's doing a fantastic job," he said. "He's been here for two seasons now and he's a great person, great manager and great guy.
"He just gives us the freedom to embrace ourselves on the pitch, just gives us opportunities to play freely and just reminds us about the quality we have in the room."
