Bournemouth manager, Andoni Iraola, believes Antoine Semenyo’s one game suspension will end up being a positive thing for his side.
The Ghana international picked up a one game suspension for an accumulation of yellow cards, causing him to miss the Cherries 4-2 win at Wolves on Saturday.
Bournemouth have a tough fixture list lined up for December, which includes games against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United.
Iraola is confident Semenyo will return much stronger to help his side during what looks like a tough period.
“We will have Antoine out, he is obviously another important player, and he was doing very good things," Iraola said in a pre-game interview.
"With the international break he had, I think we will focus it in a positive way and he can have like a small break and then be ready again for a very demanding month of December."
Semenyo has scored 4 times for Bournemouth this season, including a strike against defending champions Manchester City.
