Speaking live on talkSPORT, Jason Cundy and Jamie O’Hara had a chat about Florian Wirtz and his under-the-radar start to life in England.
Florian Wirtz – sorry.
Can we talk about Florian Wirtz for a minute.
He has been non-existent!
“The reason he’s getting away with it is because Liverpool keep winning.
Florian Wirtz has gone under the radar.”

When asked by O’Hara if he thinks Wirtz has been bad, Cundy conceded that it hasn’t been long enough to judge him yet.
Then, he compared him to Moises Caicedo.
Cundy said: “I remember Moises Caicedo at Chelsea.
But wait until Florian Wirtz doesn’t rock up.”

The money Chelsea spent on Caicedo is very similar to what Liverpool have agreed to pay for Wirtz.
Much like Caicedo has found his feet at Chelsea, becoming one of their best players, Wirtz too will come good at Anfield.
While the German was heavily relied upon at Bayer Leverkusen for his goal contributions, it’s worth highlighting that his role at Liverpool is different.
Under Slot, his role is far more of a facilitator than in Germany.
