Ryan Gravenberch highlighted Liverpool’s fierce hunger and quality during their 2-1 victory over Chelsea.
The Reds solidified their position at the top of the Premier League thanks to Curtis Jones’ second-half winner at Anfield on Sunday.
Arne Slot’s side responded swiftly after Nicolas Jackson equalized following Mohamed Salah’s first-half opener, with Jones netting the decisive strike in the 51st minute.
Reflecting on the match, Ryan Gravenberch told Liverpoolfc.com: “I’m very happy with the win. It was not an easy game – we knew it before.
“I think at the end we fought a lot and we deserved to win.
“We stick always together and we just keep playing, keep playing and we know that the second chance is coming, and we finished it.”
On Liverpool’s start to the season, he added: “It’s really early, we have a lot of games.
“But we are in a good position and we have to keep going. It’s really early.”
Jones’ match-winning contribution, achieved during just his second league start of the 2024-25 season, was no surprise to his teammates.
“He’s a really good player,” Gravenberch stated.
“I see he has the same qualities what I have – he’s really good on the ball, he’s really good in driving with the ball, you see the depth in his game.
“He was unbelievable.
“I know the qualities from Curtis and I know what I can expect from [him].
“What I said, he did really well.
“I know when he has the ball where I have to be and vice versa.
“He’s a really good player.”
Gravenberch was another standout performer in the midfield against Enzo Maresca’s Blues, delivering a display that perfectly reflected his eye-catching form at the start of the campaign.
He said: “I said it before, I’m just enjoying playing this season as a six.
“I’m just enjoying it and trying to be as consistent as I can.
“It’s going good but we have to keep going.”
