    over paid.

    Thats the instant thought i'd have i expect if we end out and got him. Macallister for 35 is far better deal.

    Bayern did not want to sell.

    He's clearly not the most important signing to klopp either.

    He was barely played last season so i struggle to believe they were that desperate to keep him .

    Correct.
    Doesn't mean he wasn't wanted though.

    Squad size?

    The second they got palhinha in then he was gone.

    You also have the remember its tuchel so he plays 4231.

    He started kimmich and Goretzka on the weekend as his 6s. then he had gnabry, sane and coman behind kane.

    Even if gravenberch was seen as "in favour" where does an 8 fit into that?

    the game before the only change was musiala playing 10.

    in our preseason game he played laimer at 6 beside kimmich.

    If you look back over last season tuchel has played 4231 and frankly Nagelsmann did also.

    the only time they changed was trying to force in mane into their line up.

    It could be the case that they have their main man and that is that. It could have been "kimmich or" not "kimmich and" in their mind.

    At ajax he was part of a 3 man midifeld and a 2.


    For me we don't really know the score with this lad at all, attitude wise, effort wise, etc. Until we do I don't think his bayern time is really going to tell us much.

    He could suit klopp "like an arse on a bucket" who knows? He coudl be an ego and be useless, who knows?

    the first task he has is to integrate himself into our team with good positive attitude and work rate and then see where is gets his shot.

    Szoboszlai Gravenberch Macallister might be possible, i don't know. It could be for games v the bottom half. It could be for europe. who knows.

    bayern were not wanting to sell but now have bought a player that suits their system. we've been linked for 12 months so who knows.

    We bought Macallister first cos there might have been competition, its clear szoboszlai was wanted as we met the release clause instantly. It seems to me its reasonable to assume we felt bayern were reluctant to sell and a late in window approach was the best value.

    In the end bayern paid 55 for palhinha as a 6 and took in 34.2 off us so they've paid off ajax and put the money down to get a much older player who iwll suit tuchel.

    Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel expects Ryan Gravenberch to join Liverpool and said: "Gravenberch is a box-to-box midfielder for me, an attacking player.

    "The main problem for him is we don't really play with a number eight in our 4-2-3-1 system. And we're spoilt for choice up front, with really experienced players.

    "Ryan is a very nice, hard-working, committed player. He wasn't happy with his situation. He sees the chance in Liverpool to fight for a place at number eight in a 4-3-3.

    "He's wanted to go for a while. An offer came in and we discussed it. It's not done yet, but the outcome is clear."
