Liverpool final whistle talking point from Theo Squires after Europa League game away to LASK as Ryan Gravenberch impresses on his first start
Ryan Gravenberch made his frustrations at Bayern Munich well-known, during what would prove to be a solitary season in Germany, on more than one occasion.
It would take just two games for Jurgen Klopp to hand the Dutchman what he had been so regularly denied in Germany. Starting the Reds’ Europa League opener against LASK Linz, even in a disjointed team performance after wholesale changes, it did not take him long to showcase his talent and demonstrate why Liverpool were willing to pay up to £40m for his services.
However, on more than one occasion he lost possession to the hosts as he grew frustrated for very different reasons. One misplaced ball out of play saw him hammer the ground in annoyance, with Elliott over quickly to encourage his new team-mate to shrug it off. With Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister brought on just two minutes before the goal, Klopp was free to unleash his new £130m midfield trio. However, their time on the pitch together came to an end just 13 minutes later as Gravenberch was forced off injured.
