AFC Bournemouth defender Stephane Zubar is aiming to hold down a regular place in Paul Groves side this season.
Zubar has now played in the Cherries last three fixtures after being selected in Paul Groves starting eleven for the teams final two games of last season and the opening game of this season.

Zubar told afcb.co.uk...
"Last season was quite frustrating because I wanted to play more but you have to respect the manager`s decision. It`s not easy for him with 25 players, I am training hard, and I think in the pre-season games and in Spain I have done well. The season will be long and hard and this is why we need a big side.
