Ryan Gravenberch at the young age of 21 is making a name for himself in Liverpool's central midfield, showing great potential for the Dutch national. His strength lies in his progressive play, characterised by an impressive carrying performance, placing him among the top tier in the league. This superb carrying ability combined with his above-average chance creation and goal threat signifies an attacking inclination, which is further corroborated by his high shot numbers.
However, while Gravenberch's ball recovery capabilities and progressive passing show promise, he could certainly improve his defensive skills. His one versus one as well as penalty area defending can be a liability in midfield. Additionally, despite his attacking play, the goals haven't been coming as effectively as expected, as indicated by his middling goal efficiency. On a similar note, although he has fair ball retention, his pass accuracy stands to be improved.
In terms of physical prowess, he seems to be lacking in terms of winning aerial duels and other duels, a part of his game he could aim to enhance. His touch is fairly balanced which keeps him involved in the play without putting him at the forefront of the action consistently. Overall, Gravenberch shows great attacking potential and progressiveness in central midfield, but there are clear areas of development, particularly in defence and clinical finishing.
