A 10-1 pre-season result is huge. Do fans see Kluivert's hat-trick as a sign he is ready for a bigger role this season?

Yes, that kind of pre-season display should earn him a closer look, even if expectations stay measured.

Kluivert, Scott and Ünal all getting among the goals makes Bournemouth's attacking preparation look properly lively.

Agreed, though pre-season needs caution. Still, that kind of attacking output is a very encouraging sign.

The scoreline is impressive, but pre-season friendlies can be misleading. The real test will be carrying that sharpness into competitive matches.

Bournemouth should treat this as useful confidence and keep building combinations, especially with several forwards contributing.
