Goretzka used to be good. He just fell off.

They should likely have kept Gravenberch. I do rate him highly, just feels a bit knee-jerk the comments in the twitter above. Liverpool haven't even played that well this season.

imo even prime Goretzka was average, he scored some nice goals and ppl forgot that he cant do basic things of a midfield player

yeah but they still won, it's Slot football, not spectacular but they will win - EV vibez

Fair enough on Goretzka

But comments like best mf in world are too much. Is he definitely better than Mac Allister, even at Liverpool? He's playing better right now but I am not convinced he's a better overall footballer.

He was always one of the biggest wonderkids at Ajax.

Goretzka was brilliant and a box to box beast under Flick. He bulked up a lot during Covid and lost his hair in the process. He was great under Flick alongside Kimmich.

I didnt follow him at Ajax, just with Bayern and he never amazed me, Kimmich was the main character in midfield under Flick imo....poor hair though but looks like he did a ht

think difficult to compare, both have different strenghts but both belong to the best midfield players itw

i would take Vitinha and Pedri above them though

Agree with it all.

He's clearly class, but Vitinha and Pedri (and De Jong and Neves) are so so elite. It's no shame to be a great midfielder but not as good as those four.
