This is the second Man of the Match Gravenberch received for Liverpool this month. After he put up a masterclass at Old Trafford, he has continued to live up to the standards on a European level. Gravenberch, who is on a five-year contract which offers him £150,000 per week, has recently started to find his feet.
Arne Slot is blending the midfield up nicely. From moving Dominic Szoboslai upwards to Alexis Mac Allister and Gravenberch supporting him from the back, the midfield does look lively. While it is seamless in transition as of now, helping with ball recoveries and trapping opponents are also traits. Keeping consistency while proper game time management is going to be the key.
