A 'big hole to fill' if Elphick and Cooper leave
Former Bournemouth midfielder and development team coach Mark Moseley believes it would be a "huge blow" if Andoni Iraola takes assistants Tommy Elphick and Shaun Cooper with him to Liverpool. Both coaches have played a key role in the Cherries' progress in recent times, with the club achieving their best-ever top-flight finish this season and will play Europa League football next term. Iraola is the front of it all, but there's so many good people behind it.
