Cherries: Howe delighted at Arter return

BOSS Eddie Howe welcomed Harry Arter's return to training before tipping the playmaker to go from strength to strength. Arter, a summer signing from non-league Woking, had been sidelined since undergoing double hernia surgery but this week rejoined his team-mates to prepare for today's trip to Sheffield Wednesday. Howe confirmed the former Charlton Athletic player was now back in contention and praised the start he has made to his Dean Court career. He told the Echo: I think Harry's done very well we're really pleased with him. He had a very good pre-season and was a little bit unfortunate to find himself out of the team, but continued to work very hard and improve his game. The timing of his injury was unfortunate because he was knocking on the door for a starting place. Now he's back fit it's good to see him back and he's an important member of the squad. Howe added: He's got a lot of talent and is technically very good. He made the big step up from non-league and he's made it look quite easy, to be honest. He can play anywhere. He's quite versatile he can play in that role just behind the frontman, he can play wide or he can play in central midfield in a 4-4-2. He gives us various options and it's really pleasing to have him back. I'm sure now he's back fit he'll go from strength to strength.
