A managerial change often signals a new chapter for players, and that appears true for one Liverpool star in the early days under Arne Slot.
The Dutch manager marked a successful debut as Liverpool’s head coach with a 2-0 away victory at Ipswich. After a lackluster first half, Liverpool improved significantly in the second, with one standout performer making a notable impact.
Ryan Gravenberch, playing a deeper midfield role, impressed with his performance. Peter Crouch praised the 22-year-old for his influence after the break, highlighting his ability to control the game from midfield.
Social media quickly shared clips showcasing Gravenberch’s precise long-range passing, sharp vision, and timely positioning.
His quick turns and effective ball distribution helped Liverpool gain momentum and create scoring opportunities. His stats from the match—six duels won, three tackles made, and an 86% pass completion rate—underscore his potential as a key player this season.
If this performance is indicative of what’s to come, Gravenberch could become a crucial asset for Slot in his debut season at Anfield, providing stability and creativity in midfield as Liverpool tackles upcoming challenges.
