Three tackles in first start
Adams had three tackles (one won) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Newcastle United.
Analysis: Adams started in central midfield alongside Alex Scott in place of Lewis Cook, winning one of his three tackle attempts across 76 minutes before being replaced as manager Marco Rose made changes with Bournemouth protecting their lead. He provided defensive cover and helped Bournemouth maintain their shape during the first-half period that produced both of the Cherries' goals, pressing Newcastle's midfield effectively throughout the opening 45 minutes. That start was his first of the season as he now sits with one chance created, three tackles and three interceptions in three Premier League appearances.
On bench against Man City
Adams (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Manchester City.
Analysis: Adams has been cleared for the season opener after missing Bournemouth's preseason match at Real Betis, with coach Marco Rose confirming he is ready for 45 to 60 minutes, pointing toward a bench role rather than a starting one as the coaching staff look to manage his workload carefully. Lewis Cook is set to start in the midfield in his place. His return to the squad is a welcome development for a side that relied heavily on his midfield contributions last season.
