Five clearances and three shots in draw Lerma fired three shots (one on target) and made five clearances, two interceptions and a tackle in Saturday's goalless stalemate against Brentford. He also picked up a yellow card... Impact Lerma was one of Bournemouth's more dangerous players on Saturday, almost scoring with his shot on target and making a positive impact in defensive duties when needed. The regular starting midfielder is an exciting fantasy addition as he rolls his sleeves up to shield the backline when needed and injects energy into the right of midfield in attack. He does have a very direct style of play which has led to him receiving 40 bookings, the most of any EPL/EFL player, since joining Bournemouth in 2018. He has controlled himself well since Bournemouth's return to the EPL, this was his first yellow card of the season. From eight appearances (all starts) he has scored once.
