Ryan Gravenberch

[Rassvet]

Gravenberch speed over 5 metres means he is completely press resistance. Watching players try to press him is comical.

Best midfielder in Europe currently.

 

[Temptation]

The most press resistant midfielder in the world.


Barca might just have missed out on their Busi replacement.

Respect to Slot for making him so integral after flopping at Bayern and being average in his first season under Klopp.

It's quite refreshing to see players like him playing for other clubs and not feeling a bit jealous.

We good, we have two players quite capable in that position. One of them, Bernal, if all things go well, will be our Busi replacement for a decade

Respect to Slot for making him so integral after flopping at Bayern and being average in his first season under Klopp.

He flopped at Bayern because he was mispositioned.
He doesn't have the eye for final balls or ability to score himself.
Whenever he finds himself close, around, or inside, the box his mind gets an 'error 404'

The genius of Slot is that (like all GREAT coaches) he found his real position: ball-retainer DM/CM and not an AM or an 8.
Tons of examples with great coaches doing that: Flick with Raphina, Klopp with Winaldum, 2000 Ancelotti did it with Pirlo, etc.

Surprising that Klopp did not see it last season
