Bournemouth boss Scott Parker says playing alongside Steven Gerrard was “a pleasure” as he bids to inflict early season pain on his former England team-mate.

The pair were regular midfield rivals during their playing careers as well as lining up together at international level, including under Roy Hodgson at Euro 2012.

Parker is preparing for his maiden managerial battle against Gerrard, with his newly-promoted Cherries set to host Aston Villa on Saturday in their Premier League opener.

“He was brilliant to play with; against, not so much,” said Parker.

“I think Stevie was, certainly in our generation, one of the best midfielders. An all-round midfielder, can do every part of the game, score goals, dynamic defensively as well.

“Playing with him was a pleasure, to play with him as well during that tournament [Euro 2012].

“A lot of fond memories playing against and some not so fond ones because there was always a battle on your hands and there were always some challenges.”

Premier League opening weekend predictions

FRIDAY: Crystal Palace v Arsenal, 11pm: Arsenal have signaled their intent to challenge for a top-four berth this season with some signature signings, not least Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus and Portugal midfielder Fabio Vieira. Selhurst Park is never an easy place to visit and the Gunners will have to show plenty of grit to come away with a positive result. Prediction: Palace 1, Arsenal 1. Getty Images

Bournemouth v Aston Villa, 6pm: Bournemouth bounced straight back after their relegation from the Premier League in 2021. Scott Parker has added no new signings to his squad that finished runners-up in last season's Championship while Aston Villa counterpart Steven Gerrard can count on the services of Brazilian pair Diego Carlos and Philippe Coutinho.

Leeds United v Wolves, 6pm: Leeds stayed up by the skin of their teeth on the final day of last season, but with star forward Raphinha having departed for Barcelona, it remains to be seen how Jesse Marsch compensates for the brilliant Brazilian. Wolves' form tailed off towards the back end of 2021/22 as they failed to win any of their final five games to finish 10th. Prediction: Leeds 0, Wolves 2. PA

Newcastle United v Nottingham Forest, 6pm: Two clubs who have been plenty busy in the transfer market over the summer. Dutch defender Sven Botman will form part of a defence that on paper looks as good as many in the top tier.

Tottenham Hotspur v Southampton, 6pm: Tottenham look best placed to challenge Manchester City and Liverpool at the top of the table, especially with Richarlison added to a star-studded front line already boasting Harry Kane and Son Heung-min. Ralph Hasenhuttl has been four years at the Southampton helm but there has been little sign of progress. Could this be the year the Saints step up? Prediction: Tottenham 3, Southampton 0.

Everton v Chelsea, 8.30pm: After a period of uncertainty following a protracted takeover, Chelsea moved fast to replace the departing Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen with Kalidou Koulibaly while four-time Premier League winner Raheem Sterling should provide the goals Romelu Lukaku couldn't.

SUNDAY: Leicester City v Brentford, 5pm: Brentford showed they were more than a match for most teams in the league in an excellent debut campaign while Leicester's largely fizzled out before it even ignited.

Manchester United v Brighton, 5pm: Fitting that Cristiano Ronaldo - who reportedly has told Manchester United he wants to quit the club - should mark his return to action against the team he last faced in the Premier League in May. That day was one to forget for all concerned at the club as Brighton ran out 4-0 winners. But United have a new man in charge in Erik ten Hag. Fans will hope for a rapid uptick in form and performances under the Dutchman. Prediction: United 2, Brighton 2. AFP

West Ham United v Manchester City. 7.30pm: City will be reeling more from their abject performance against Liverpool last weekend perhaps more than they will the result, a 3-1 defeat. With Raheem Sterling, Fernandinho and Oleksandr Zinchenko gone, it will be interesting to see how City look to supply their superstar signing Erling Haaland. Prediction: West Ham 1, City 2.

Parker, who masterminded promotion from the Championship last term, admits Bournemouth could be better prepared for their top-flight return.

The 41-year-old has so far been restricted to just three summer signings, with two of those – Ryan Fredericks and Joe Rothwell – injured for the curtain raiser, while a host of players have been allowed to leave Vitality Stadium.

Having said the Cherries are “way short of where we need to be” following last weekend’s friendly defeat to Spanish side Real Sociedad, Parker insisted the club is working collectively to recruit reinforcements.

“I realise now in the Premier League every comment is held on to but it is the truth,” he said.

“I’m not criticising what I have here. The facts are, like everyone at the football club knows, we need to bring some players in and everyone is trying their hardest to do that.

“As the manager, I want them in three months ago. I also understand it’s difficult in a market where it is very competitive, a lot of teams spending a lot of money.

“We’re probably in a different market to that so we have to be creative while also trying to bring in the right quality.

“We need help. Everyone has acknowledged that and everyone is trying to do something about that.”

What is a robo-adviser?

Robo-advisers use an online sign-up process to gauge an investor’s risk tolerance by feeding information such as their age, income, saving goals and investment history into an algorithm, which then assigns them an investment portfolio, ranging from more conservative to higher risk ones.

These portfolios are made up of exchange traded funds (ETFs) with exposure to indices such as US and global equities, fixed-income products like bonds, though exposure to real estate, commodity ETFs or gold is also possible.

Investing in ETFs allows robo-advisers to offer fees far lower than traditional investments, such as actively managed mutual funds bought through a bank or broker. Investors can buy ETFs directly via a brokerage, but with robo-advisers they benefit from investment portfolios matched to their risk tolerance as well as being user friendly.

Many robo-advisers charge what are called wrap fees, meaning there are no additional fees such as subscription or withdrawal fees, success fees or fees for rebalancing.

Tearful appearance

Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday. 

Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow. 

She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.

A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.

Which honey takes your fancy?

Al Ghaf Honey

The Al Ghaf tree is a local desert tree which bears the harsh summers with drought and high temperatures. From the rich flowers, bees that pollinate this tree can produce delicious red colour honey in June and July each year

Sidr Honey

The Sidr tree is an evergreen tree with long and strong forked branches. The blossom from this tree is called Yabyab, which provides rich food for bees to produce honey in October and November. This honey is the most expensive, but tastiest

Samar Honey

The Samar tree trunk, leaves and blossom contains Barm which is the secret of healing. You can enjoy the best types of honey from this tree every year in May and June. It is an historical witness to the life of the Emirati nation which represents the harsh desert and mountain environments
