One of the Liverpool players who is going under the radar at the moment is Ryan Gravenberch.
Ryan Gravenberch joined Liverpool from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window.
Gravenberch did not make a strong start to life at Liverpool, but the 21-year-old Netherlands international midfielder is now starting to get into rhythm.
The youngster scored for Liverpool against Union Saint-Gilloise in their 2-0 at Anfield in UEFA Europa League Group E on Thursday evening.
It was the midfielder’s first goal for the Premier League club.
Jurgen Klopp praises Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has raved about Gravenberch and has outlined what makes the former Bayern star so good.
Klopp told Liverpool’s official website about Gravenberch: “He is technically incredibly good, the first touch is insane. The speed-up is top-class. Really good shooter, which we saw with the Darwin [Nunez] goal which was disallowed [v Union]; but the ball was a fire ball before.
“He’s a really good player. Yes, he came late and yes, we play slightly different and yes, that needs time to adapt and that’s what we can give him, thank God.
“And he’s completely happy with it and is in the group and he realised in each training session that he gets treated exactly like all the others if he starts or not, he gets even a [bit] more information in specific moments.
“He can see what the other boys do in similar positions, he can watch it, he learns from it, he’s a smart boy.
“So, everything goes in the right direction, that’s really, really nice to see. Assists in the other games and now he has his first goal. It’s good – long may it continue. Very important for us.”
My View: Ryan Gravenberch could soon explode at Liverpool
In my opinion, Liverpool and Netherlands international midfielder Ryan Gravenberch could soon explode.
Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister have established themselves as key figures in the Liverpool midfield after joining in the summer transfer window.
It is taking some time for Gravenberch at the Merseyside club, but I believe that he will get there.
Eventually.
It is only a matter of time.
The midfielder has made three substitute appearances in the Premier League for Liverpool so far this season.
Gravenberch has scored one goal and given one assist in two UEFA Europa League matches for the Reds so far this campaign.
