Bournemouth's 3-1 win over south coast rivals Southampton propelled Andoni Iraola's side up to fifth in the Premier League, sparking conversation amongst fans that making the grade for Europe's elite tournament could actually be a possibility.

Whilst fans gleefully chanted "Champions League awaits for me", we're now at a point where we're questioning whether the song we're singing is just another piece of terrace rhetoric, or whether it it is actually not such a left-field claim as it might sound.

The performance at St Mary's saw Boscombe effectively put the game to bed in the first half, and whilst Saints sorted out some of their personnel problems in the second half, ultimately, when we needed to - Bournemouth upped our levels, and a two-goal cushion was quickly restored.

So can we? Sam and Tom go over the finer details of a memorable weekend at what has recently become the south's most frequent footballing derby.
