Diogo Jota opened his and Liverpool’s account for the season with his goal against Ipswich but he was quick to praise the role of one teammate after his finish.
Although Trent Alexander-Arnold played the pass to Mo Salah who provided our No.20 with the opportunity to find the back of the net, the forward credited Ryan Gravenberch for the goal being scored and he shouted: “You! That’s you! Well done!”.

Playing in the No.6 role, the Dutchman collected ball before creating space and then found our No.66 who then progressed the move into becoming a scoring opportunity.
We know how crucial this role is to Arne Slot and it’s safe to say that our No.38 impressed in the position against Ipswich Town.

Ryan is a player who will surprise quite a few this season. Once he gains confidence and feels as though each game isn’t an audition he will prove to another bargain buy. Looking forward to seeing what he can do.
I totally agree with you. I feel like he is going to be one of our best players this season. I just pray he stays fit.
