Young defenders Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez were the hot topic on the latest episode of BBC Radio Solent's Cherries: Unpicked podcast.
Huijsen, 19, and Kerkez, 21, have been hugely influential in a superb season for Bournemouth under manager Andoni Iraola but both men will miss this weekend's FA Cup quarter-final against Manchester City through suspension.
Speaking about how big a miss the pair will be to Bournemouth's backline, the club's official historian, Neil Vacher, said: "I think that is really significant, unfortunately.
"In an FA Cup competition, a few bookings leads to suspension, and Milos Kerkez was very, very unfortunate to get cautioned for his part in the melee that saw Matheus Cunha dismissed.
"While you can perhaps say that is an unlucky yellow when you're building up to a total of five or 10, in a cup competition that could be really, really vital. I'm hoping that we can overcome that."
