Bournemouth's Howe pleased with Stanislas's progress

Stanislas has been one of several injury worries that the 'Cherries' have ahd to deal with in recent months, having suffered from a knee injury since March.

However, things are looking up for the winger, after he signed a contract extension with the club and made significant progress to coming back to action, according to his manager Eddie Howe.

"During the international break, one of the big positives for us was that Junior joined in training and did really well." the former Burnley boss said.

"We did a maximal test during that break and he came first in that, so that was a really good sign, and shows he has done his rehabilitation with the best possible attitude.

"He won't be available for this game but is making the right progress."

The team next play Leicester, having made a positive start to the season overall.
