Scotland international Fraser, nicknamed ‘Wee-Man’ by his Cherries teammates, admits modelling himself on Chelsea wing wizard Hazard.

The 5ft 4inch winger, who is four inches shorter than the Begium star, said: “I always look at Hazard.

“What I like about him is he might not have an unbelievable game or things don’t come off for him but he keeps trying it.

“He always tries to get on the ball and he might flick it and that doesn’t come off or he’s having one of those games. Everyone has them.

“But I like how he gets on the ball and keeps trying and that is what I should be doing, keep getting the ball and not shying away from it.”

Bournemouth famously beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge two years ago to send Jose Mourinho hurtling towards the sack.

Fraser added: “Chelsea is a massive fixture. When you play against the big teams the first couple of years you do not have any expectation going into them.

“When I was out on loan the lads got a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge, we beat Liverpool and drew with Arsenal when we should have had them at home.

“When we play against the big teams the lads seem to raise their game. I don’t like to say it but when you play against better players you mentally switch on a little bit more.”

Defeat at the Vitality Stadium would turn up the heat on Chelsea boss Antonio Conte but Eddie Howe reckons it is crazy the Italian is under pressure after winning the title last season.

Bournemouth boss Howe said: “It defies belief really that someone who has done the job at Chelsea that he has can even be talked about in that way.”

“They won so many games and won the title comfortably and full credit to him for that revolution. I think he has brought a lot to the Premier League.

“He has brought a lot of passion and drive to the side-line and you can see the demands that he has set on his team, that’s been fascinating to watch.”
