Paul Merson gives his review on Bournemouth's 6-1 win against Hull

Watch as Paul Merson gives his thoughts on Bournemouth's 6-1 hammering of Hull City.

Three goals in each half saw Eddie Howe's classy Cherries tear Hull apart at the Vitality Stadium, with Junior Stanislas bagging a brace and striker Callum Wilson getting a late goal that his excellent performance deserved.

Charlie Daniels, Steve Cook and Dan Gosling also found the net in the south coast rout, while Ryan Mason's fortuitous deflected strike in the first half was the only glimmer of hope for Hull in a game where they struggled to compete from first to last.
