Bournemouth captain Tommy Elphick says their 2-0 FA Cup exit to Everton will allow them to focus on Premier League survival.

"It's a disappointing result," he told BBC Radio Solent. "But we've said in the dressing room that we've got to give it our all for the league now."

The Cherries are currently four points above the Premier League relegation zone.

"There's some real key fixtures coming up," he added. "Some players put in some performances tonight (against Everton) that put themselves in the manager's head.

"The silver lining from this game is that we can now give it everything in the league. There's players in the squad who are now fit again and that are in a good place, ready to all push in the same direction."
