The 21-year-old Dutchman snatched a late winner for his side to send parent club Chelsea 3 points clear at the top of the table and keep Liverpool at third place, a point behind Arsenal.
Chelsea fans were absolutely elated as they watched one of their brightest loan prospects boost their title chances after scoring Bournemouth’s stoppage time winner, which was their fourth goal of an astounding comeback win. Blues’ fans were immediately calling for a contract extension and showered praise on the young defender.

Imagine Ake as a LWB in the current Chelsea side. We’d have one less weakness. He is needed next season.

We have players that can fix our current problems. Christensen for Cahill, Ake for Alonso.

Look where you could have been @afcbournemouth, why did it take you almost four months to start Ake? Still don’t understand.
