Scott: The 'scrawny-looking kid' turned complete midfielder wanted by the elite

Across the seven games in which Bournemouth took points off Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea last season, it is telling that Alex Scott was nearly ever-present, playing 625 of a possible 630 minutes.

Scott was one of Andoni Iraola's most valued and trusted players in an historic season for the club. Clearly, he made a mark on their opponents too. Coveted by the elite, he could become the latest Premier League midfielder to make a high-profile move.
