"Slot has unlocked a demon", "Schooling Kobbie Mainoo" - Fans hail Liverpool star's performance in 3-0 Manchester United win

Liverpool fans have waxed lyrical about Ryan Gravenberch after he impressed in their 3-0 win against rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford (September 1). The Dutchman, who played as a central midfielder under Jurgen Klopp last year, has flourished as the Reds' No. 6 under Arne Slot.

Liverpool cruised to their third Premier League win in a row this season as Slot and Co. extended their perfect start. Luis Diaz netted a first-half brace (35', 42') while Mohamed Salah scored in the 56th minute.

Gravenberch was technically sound in Liverpool's midfield and was instrumental in the build-up of their opener by intercepting Casemiro's pass in midfield. The 22-year-old won both his tackles, made four interceptions and six recoveries, won seven duels, and nullified the threats of Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo.

One fan reacted by posting:

"Ryan Gravenberch, MOTM. Monstrous display. Slot has unlocked a Demon"

Another fan tweeted:

"Ryan Gravenberch is schooling Kobbie Mainoo. What an unbelievable midfielder"

Slot became the first Liverpool manager to defeat the Red Devils in his first game since the legendary Bob Paisley in November 1975. He also became the second Reds boss to beat them at Old Trafford on his first visit since George Kay in November 1936.

As per OptaJoe, Slot became the first head coach to win his first three Premier League games without conceding a goal since the late Sven-Goran Eriksson in 2007.
