Ryan Gravenberch can be the hidden jam for Klopp in the upcoming matches to face UEL and Premier League intensity.

Ryan Gravenberch left Bayern Munich to join Liverpool in the first days of September in what could be the right move for Klopp’s midfield.

He played only one match for Bayern Munich the one against FC Augsburg, for 7 minutes and then completed his transfer in Liverpool. We are going to take a quick look at his positioning and detach the strongest and the weakest points.

Ryan Gravenberch in the last Bayern Munich play against Augsburg.

He played as a box-to-box midfielder in the match against Augsburg, with clear attacking duties. But his game is not only that, he can adapt in the center of the midfield and at the same time play as a left-center midfielder.

Gravenberch can make different passes on the build-up, combining with fullbacks and positioning himself on key transitional roles between the lines. He can be positioned between the first line or the second opponent line.

Also, Gravenberch can be the attacking midfielder the last element of that four-player shape that we see a lot in Klopp’s game. Granvenberch can combine in two sides of the midfield, having that freedom to play while attacking.

Gravenberch can be the last passing alternative while going in the goal-line with the last crossing balls that could be very useful for him.

Liverpool played a brilliant game against Villa and exactly in Gravenberch’s position at Bayern, played number 17 Curtis Jones. Jones is a different type of player and he is not as advanced as Ryan. He must be oriented in the build-up and be very aggressive. These tasks make him a bit different from Gravenberch.

The main difference is that Curtis Jones is way more aggressive than Gravenberch and the Dutch player is probably more creative on the attack. The determinative points will be how the coach wants to build his team and how it is reacting based on the match and the opponent.

Another key point is how effective will be his play together with Mc Allister and Szoboszlai. Both midfielders like attacking and that leaves room for interpretation in the defensive duties.
