Bournemouth boss Gary O'Neil insists they can be satisfied after their 1-0 home defeat to Manchester United.
United won thanks to Casemiro's winner.
O'Neil said: "We were good, we gave everything in a close game. We were right in it and had a big chance at the end. It is Manchester United and we had players missing.
"We want to treat every game with respect and give a good account of ourselves. David Brooks earned his right to start today, it's not a friendly and we were very competitive. We deserved something from the game.
"For his first game back after such a long time David showed some great touches. Pre-season will be big for him but I'm delighte dto have him back. He will be a good option for us next season.
"I am very proud of the group, it was a big mountain we had to climb. We achieved something that not many people thought we could."
