Dominic Solanke and Jaidon Anthony both bagged twice for Scott Parker’s side to seal the comfortable victory at Vitality Stadium.
The three points were essential to maintain Cherries’ position at the top of the table, with Fulham breathing down their necks just two points off the summit after a 7-0 win over Blackburn midweek.
As such, supporters were delighted to see another superb showing and shared their thoughts on the result.

Mightyafcb: What a response, wow wow wow wow.
Mark Rogers: Well, that's how you respond to a first defeat! Well played Davis too. Very difficult first twenty minutes against the tricky Man Utd loanee, but he did really well after that.
Oswald Smythe: Excellent performance and result. The spirit and attitude of this team is exceptional.
cherrygood: Massive result after Wednesday, a real sign of a team and manager that can quickly file away disappointments and get back to normal service. Probably need to start games better more consistently but hey ho can't have everything.Excellent performance and result. The spirit and attitude of this team is exceptional.
Makadaiko: Great tactics by super Scotty Parker putting Lerma on man to man marking of Paterson. He followed him everywhere and didn't give him a kick.
the specialone: Great win. Stacey my Man of the match. Excellent energy. Swansea started well and looked a dangerous side but we just swept them away in the second half. If that referee is going to the Premiership, god help us. He was awful. COYR. Onwards and Upwards
The Traveller: Great game great atmosphere. Good to see Lewis Cook back.

Ryan Christie. Best player to have represented the club without scoring a goal (yet) #afcb

This doesn’t get enough attention but the @JaidonnA11 is at David Silva levels with his through balls. Key passes for the first 2 goals and almost an illegal assist for Lowe at the far post late on! Incredible #afcb

Swansea were best footballing side that I’ve seen at DC for some time. For 15 mins.
Quite enjoyed the niggly battle that followed after. Should have scored 8.#afcb #utciad
