​Brooks exciting Bournemouth boss Howe

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe is so excited by the potential of David Brooks.

His new signing, who cost the club £10 million, had an impressive debut against Cardiff City in the Premier League.

Bournemouth won the game 2-0 and their manager was delighted with the young midfielder's efforts.

"I decided to go with the same team as Marseille due to the fact that performance was so good. I thought it was very difficult to take anyone out of it," said Howe to Sky Sports after the game.

"David deserved to start on the back of that performance and I was really pleased with his contribution.

"He's young, yes, but he's talented and I think you saw a glimpse of what his potential is.

"I'm really pleased with him."
