Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola has been speaking to the media before Sunday’s Premier League game against Aston Villa at Villa Park (kick-off 14:00 GMT).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• Antoine Semenyo, Tyler Adams and Alex Jimenez have all overcome fitness issues, so Iraola has the same group to select from as last week.
• With a fit squad, would it be possible for Evanilson and Eli Junior Kroupi to play in a two-striker system?: “I think they could play together. I think both are number nines. I think they are both strikers. I remember doing it with Unal and Solanke in some games. But I don’t think most of the games we can fit them both in. The way we play, the demands for the number 10 defensively are very big. I think Junior could do it but he will need time to adapt. But it’s not impossible.”
• On Alex Scott’s England call-up: “I’m pleased for him. He has been playing very well. Everyone was really excited for him this morning. In the beginning of the season he was also good for the England Under-21s. I am also pleased for the club, for his team-mates. Everyone around the club was happy as even if it’s an individual call, we felt it collectively and there is a recognition of playing for Bournemouth. If you do well you can have this reward.”
• Offering more on Scott: “I think Alex, the two seasons with us has had three knee injuries. He hasn’t had a long run of games where he could play the level he is lately. To play in the summer with England put him in a perfect place for pre-season. He arrived strong, did a good pre-season and won his place in the team. He has strong competition in those positions. I think this period without any issue has been very good for him.”
• Asked if sending Scott on loan during earlier years was ever pondered: “We have never had doubts about his level. Probably we used him as a 10, more forward. Once he got more adapted, his best position now is a number eight, in the midfield. It’s easy to say now but we have never had any doubt about his level.”
• On the challenge Villa present: “You know more or less what they are going to do, but they do it very well. We need our top-level performance if we want to beat them because the level of the game is going to be very high.”
• Iraola has urged his side to be mentally strong this weekend, stating: “I think we have to learn from the games like Man City away and Liverpool away. Last week when we conceded to be 2-1, straight away we conceded more chances and you can throw the game away. At Villa Park it will be like this. If they score a goal or have a big chance, they put you under pressure and If you are not focused and panic you can throw the game in five minutes. I hope we are ready mentally and trust ourselves to show a strong personality as it is not an easy place to play.”
