Bournemouth youngster Justin Kluivert enjoyed his first taste of the Premier League.

The youngster, who arrived from Roma in the summer for a fee of around 9.5 million, is being eased into the starting lineup.

Kluivert came on from the bench in their first two Premier League games of the season.

After their 3-1 loss to Liverpool, the former Ajax man told the Daily Echo: Unlucky. We started very good, we tried.

Beautiful, a good start. That's what you want, to start like that, to get 1-0 in front and we had a great start."

On getting to play, 24-year-old added: I was waiting and they scored to make it 3-1, that's always difficult.

They're in their motion and to come on is difficult. But I tried to score goals and that is the only thing that counts."

It's a big statement and as you saw, that's not easy because that is also the style they like," he finished on the team's attacking mindset, even against teams like Liverpool.

But we tried and that's what we could do. We gave our best and we didn't succeed.

But maybe in the next game."
