Ryan Gravenberch hits back at Liverpool fans as he insists team don't "deserve" to be booed | OneFootball

Ryan Gravenberch has hit back at Liverpool fans for booing the team today, saying he felt the players didn’t deserve it.

The Netherlands international was clearly not too pleased when he spoke after the game, saying that Liverpool’s players will generally perform better with the crowd behind them.

Watch below as Gravenberch gave his thoughts on the negative atmosphere inside Anfield today in the 1-1 draw with Chelsea…

Ryan Gravenberch says Liverpool don’t “deserve” boos

“To be honest, we need them behind us … okay, we don’t win, but I think we don’t really deserve this, you know.

“I think fans have to be behind us like 90 minutes, because I think when it was the second half when they went behind us, we pressed them really, so we need that.

“Hopefully in the next few games they won’t do this anymore.”

Liverpool only have two Premier League games remaining now, in what has been a hugely disappointing season for the club.

It remains to be seen what the Reds can come up with in their final fixtures to improve the mood of the fans, who are clearly not enjoying Arne Slot’s brand of football right now.

Can Arne Slot win back Liverpool fans?

Slot majorly over-achieved in his first season in charge of LFC, winning the Premier League title as both Manchester City and Arsenal suffered slightly disappointing campaigns.

In many ways, what we’re seeing now is the kind of struggle that many would have expected from Slot after taking on the difficult job of replacing the legendary Jurgen Klopp.

The Dutch tactician simply isn’t as charismatic or passionate as Klopp, and that seems to be reflected in how the team is playing at the moment.

It will be interesting to see if Slot can hold on to his job and turn this around, or if Liverpool bow to fan pressure and consider making a change.
