Bournemouth 2-1 Leicester: Gary O'Neil makes it five games unbeaten

Gary O'Neil further enhanced his credentials to become the next permanent Bournemouth manager after leading his side to an impressive comeback victory over Leicester.

Since succeeding Scott Parker at Vitality Stadium O'Neil has overseen a five-game unbeaten run, and this fine win comes after another outstanding comeback against Nottingham Forest last month.

Although he plays it down when asked, it is increasingly hard to ignore the body of work he is creating at Bournemouth, with former Arsenal defender Martin Keown asking: "Who else would you give the job to?"

In front of prospective new Cherries owner Bill Foley, Patson Daka's opener gave Leicester some early control but they failed to capitalise and had no answer to a rousing reply from Bournemouth in the second half.
