While going nine games unbeaten in the Premier League is an achievement not to be sniffed at, manager Andoni Iraola will see Bournemouth's goalless draw with Brentford as two points dropped rather than one point gained.
Bournemouth have now drawn their last three games, all against sides around them in the table. Just one win would have boosted their fading hopes of playing European football next season.
"It's a point. It's very little seeing our performance and our needs. There are also a lot of positives but probably at this stage of the season you need the points," Iraola told BBC Match of the Day.
