I hope he's dead good this lad, not just the last turkey in the shop.

I cannot shake that image out of my head now,you bastard!

So surprised you wouldn't have heard of a player from little known Ajax and Bayern Munich. You seem so knowledgeable.

So he's another one of your best midfielders of all time.

His name was out there as a member of that talented Ajax squad from a couple of seasons back. At the time we were rumoured to be interested in him.

His name looks too close to Gravesen. Do not want. 

Gravesen was and still is a mad bastard. Apparently he lives in Vegas now and makes a fortune playing Call of Duty

Well he was a 'Dog of War.'

And poker and is married to a porn star. 
 

Look how his life changed once he left the The Ev…

Anyways, on Gravenberch, I’m unconvinced. 
 

If we were going to buy him, surely the time was last summer when Bayern got him for a knock down deal?

 

I didn’t think much to him when we played Ajax twice in the COVID19 season. 

 

He’s not really a regular for a fairly average Dutch side. 
 

I get impression he’s not lived up to the early hype and stagnated a bit. If we could get him to kick on the great, but I doubt we have the money to be taking €30m “gambles” this summer.

 

Given Bayern are signing Laimer from RBL, he might well be on the move. I’m very dubious it will be to us.

Fucking hell, sometimes you forget how fucking weird they are.

Enrique and his agent talking about Gravenberch…

Refuse to believe he'd be any worse than the panoply of Hopkirks we've got in there.

[gkmacca]

Is he 'done' yet? If so, don't buy. 

[an tha]

As someone to add some depth and maybe develop over next few years then he might be a decent buy

 

He is young will be 21 soon, and has reasonable experience for his age and hopefully a high ceiling - Klopp loves to develop players of course.

 

He'd surely offer an upgrade in squad space to Oxlade or Keita with possible potential to develop well and become a key player.

 

If however he would be seen as one of our desperately needed key signings to fix us now - then for my money it would be somewhat underwhelming.

He fits the profile of midfielders we sign - cheap, doesn't score goals - so there may be legs in this.

Yeah, he may look alright now, but can he sit in the treatment room on a cold Tuesday night in Stoke?

Thomas Gravesen is an anagram of Savage H Monster.

 

Fits.

If he’s the “Shrewd Liverpool can save millions by…” alternative to Jude Bellingham, I hope everyone gets on his back if he doesn’t perform as well as Bellingham does in Manchester or Madrid,

That can't be allowed to go unrepped.

Let's hope he works out like our previous second-choice masterstrokes...

In their infinite wisdom and with all the originality in the world our US friends changed the title of Randall and Hopkirk Deceased to 'My Friend,The Ghost.' Brilliant.

Anyone know Bayern's returns policy ?

No backs I think was the official clause.

[ZonkoVille77]

He just ran into players all evening. Although he seems to be a type that's better starting a game than coming into one cold. Looked a bit lost tonight.

[Code]

Very poor today. 

[Crazy Dave]

Terrible performance when he came on. Gave the ball away constantly and shit out of numerous tackles.

 

Take a look at Endo behind ya buddy. That's a midfield performance.
