        Iwobi

        He's got great body positioning and really rolls his defenders well. Not many players can do it, especially young ones. As he gets stronger and up to speed with our game he's going to be a quality addition.

        I think you can see his Ajax style with the one-twos and quick movement. Once he clicks with others I think he'll be one of our top assisters and probably get on the end of a few goals too. Has excellent movement

          He's deceptively quick and simply glides across the pitch. It's like playing FIFA with one midfield player being maxxed out.

          I wonder if he'll be trained to be more Wijnaldum like?

            He really is the only midfielder that has the proper physicality for me. With Baj as the understudy.
            He has played there but i'd worry about his discipline in that role, in the same way Pogba struggled with it. Both of them like to break forward. Definitely see him more of an 8.

            Was the only thing worth watching last night. and Quansah did well despite having little defending to do for large parts. Sixth game of the season by the way and he's went about it quietly.

              I think Klopp has already said he brought Grav in to be an 8?

                Perhaps and that's definitely his best position from the little we've seen.

                That said, its also fair to say that Mac Alister and Endo are struggling as a 6. With Jones out i can see why people are looking to other solutions.

                  Feels strange when we just paid out for Macca to play the same position with Jones already looking good there. Maybe Jones can cover the right too, but we know that Klopp likes Elliott there.

                  For me, Grav has the right attributes, and previous metrics suggest he would be perfect on paper (for DM)..

                  But I too worry that he wants to get further forward than that... and Klopp has only played him Left Mid. And if he has come out and said that then it must be true. Not complaining, as I think he looks a good player... But we will need better than Endo or Macca in there if we are to reclaim the top. But then again, its a big gap in quality between City and the rest, so maybe thats an unfair expectation for this season.

                    Hopefully we will be back in for Andre in the Jan window

                      I'm not sure Bajetic is too far behind Gravenburch in terms of development in general, but he's absolutely played way more as a more defensively minded player
                      I saw a dead fish on the pavement and thought "what did you expect?"

                        I think Grav has looked a bit more physical than I remember Baj, but he hasnt played a while... he is also 3 years younger. I dont think he is up to it just yet. Grav does look like he could step in. I think he would be better than Macca.

                        Funny we have gone from zero options to bloody loads

                          He really excites me. From early signs he loves to be involved and his style is a little chaotic. He's not going to be boring, I can feel it in my bones

                            The way he runs reminds me of a better Sissoko..

                                I'm thinking this Brazilian Andre from Fluminese is going to be our DM come January.
