If one man can hurt Liverpool it's Ryan Fraser

Travelling up to the match at Anfield may not fill AFCB supporters with much hope of a win over the mighty five times Champions League (European Cup) winners. But looking amongst the Bournemouth ranks we do have a player who has cut Liverpool apart before in the famous 4-3 win at Dean Court in December 2016 and Ryan Fraser just might be able to do it again.
Could it be Ryan's day?
Fraser has been sitting highly in the assist stats for the Premier League all season and is still only one behind the leader Eden Hazard. He has six goals to his name as well with the goals equally spread between his left and right foot which already tells us how he has taken his game on to be able to finish just as well with either foot.

The fact that Fraser is seen by Klopp as a problem might well be seen in the way Liverpool are doing all they can to get Trent Alexander-Arnold back for this game. They have to have a player that is quick and strong to hold off Ryan Fraser and Klopp has been admirer of the winger since he played so well against his sides.

But of late Fraser has found it difficult to play with as much impact as his early season form. His levels never drop that much but he can be the lead man and trouble provider when Callum and David Brooks are not around. Bournemouth need his creativity and we saw against Cardiff how the team didn't get Fraser on the ball probably enough to create good chances. He himself is not missing chances, but just hasn't had many come his way of late. I'm hoping that this might change up at Anfield.
