West Ham United midfielder Jack Collison has claimed that his loan move to Bournemouth is a good chance to prove himself to manager Sam Allardyce.
The 25-year-old Welsh international signed a one-month deal with the Championship club on Tuesday.
"It's a fantastic club, which is on the up, and hopefully I can help them and they can help me," Collison told West Ham's official website.
"I haven't been involved as much as I would have liked [this season], so it's a good opportunity for me to come here and show what I can do."
Collison penned his first professional contract with West Ham in 2007 following a two-year spell in the club's youth academy.
