Former Liverpool goalkeeper Sander Westerveld, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast about Ryan Gravenberch‘s impressive start to the season at the base of the Reds’ midfield:

“I was in Philadelphia with the team [in pre-season]. I spoke to Gravenberch there on the training ground and I told him this was going to be his year. Arne Slot brings the full potential out of the players – and especially the younger players.

“This is the Gravenberch from Ajax – this is how he plays. He went to Bayern Munich and they didn’t use him, or didn’t feel he was that good- but we know how good he is.

“Arne uses the number six in the build-up and it suits him [Gravenberch] perfectly.

“He’s still young and he can’t play as man of the match every week, but Tuesday was a great display of his potential.”
