Harris pre-Bournemouth | We know the test ahead of us

Interviews

BOURNEMOUTH PREVIEW | HARRIS

Neil Harris held a pre-match press conference ahead of Wednesday's Sky Bet Championship clash with AFC Bournemouth.

The City boss emphasised the importance of the Bluebirds building on their recent away exploits, as they prepare to face the unbeaten Cherries back at Cardiff City Stadium.

"We know Bournemouth's ability," began Neil.

"You've just got to look at their squad on paper, the quality of player they've got throughout the team, and they've had a good start to the season.

"We know the level of test ahead of us, but that's why we play the game. You want to play against the best sides in the division and you want to challenge yourselves as a group against them.

"We've got a lot to prove in the game. We've got momentum from the weekend where we had a fine performance, following up on an excellent point at Blackburn a couple of weeks before.

"We've had a good spell ourselves, coupled with a really good transfer window. 

"Our point to prove is that we need to get the ball rolling at home, at Cardiff City Stadium, as I think quite a lot of teams do in the UK at the moment, with the amount of away wins. We're one of them, and we're conscious of the fact that we want to get off the mark at home with some points."
