Alan Shearer gives verdict on Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch under Arne Slot

Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has been hugel🐓y impressed 🧔with Gravenberch and has included him in his Premier League Team of the Season so far.

What has changed with Ryan Gravenberch at Liverpool this season

Gravenberch had injury problems last ꩲseason. It was also the first time that the Netherlands international midfielder was playing in the Premier League

Ryan Gravenberch’s elder brother Danzelဣl Gravenberch, who plays for FC Den Bosch, has given his take on why the Liverpoolꦚ midfielder is doing so well.

Danzell Gravenberch told about Ryan Gravenberch: “It fe💙els like he🐠 got sporting revenge just by letting his feet do the talking,

That’s Ryan. In the past, Ryan had moments when he seemed to dream a little. That was probably because it was ෴easy for him when he was young. He didn’t always have to do that much.

“🌟He was sometimes absent for a while. But that has really changed. I don’t see those moments anymore. Ryan has become a guy who knows exactly what he can do.

“They used to t🅰alk about his nonchalant attitude. But if you look at the distances he’s covered, you’l𓆏l see that he’s really not that nonchalant. Maybe it’s because of his smile!”
