For a team that prides itself on the slickness of their football, Harry Arter has always been a vital, underrated, part of the way they function.

That Bournemouth's early season dip, and run of awful results, coincided with the fact that Arter was injured cannot be overlooked and with the return of their midfield general, the Cherries have put together a decent enough run of results over the past two months.

Against United, his relentless running, incessant tackling and general drive allowed Bournemouth to keep moving forward while never allowing any of United's attacking footballers to settle.
