Bournemouth boss Jason Tindall to have words with Philip Billing after midfielder's sarcastic social media response to being left out of the side

Philip Billing faces an uncomfortable chat with Bournemouth manager Jason Tindall after a social media outburst in which he suggested he wasn’t injured.

The Danish midfielder - signed for £15million on a five-year deal from Huddersfield in the summer of 2019 - was not included in the squad for Tuesday’s defeat at Derby.

But in the build-up to the game, a since-deleted comment from Billing’s Instagram account to one of the club’s fans’ sites read: ‘Didn’t know I was injured.’

In response, Tindall said he was confused because the 24-year-old had failed to complete Monday’s pre-match training session.
