"I think he's got to show a little bit more, especially on that left wing. He needs to show a little bit more for me."I was hoping he could be the one that would be stepping into that void that Luis Diaz has left.

When you look at the intensity that he has to play at in this Liverpool side, I doubt he would’ve had to play like that ever before."So he’s got to get used to that and then as well, when you’re talking about defensively, you’ve got to say some of the Premier League defences are the best in the world. So I think you’ve just got to give the players like Wirtz time."The Premier League champions return to action on October 19 when they entertain Manchester United at Anfield and Arne Slot enters the most-watched club fixture in football on his worst run as Liverpool boss, having lost three in a row before the international break.Former England striker Heskey added: “Defensively, he wants to get things solid again.

It might not look exactly the same, but it's got to have some sort of solidity to it.“If you're talking about out and out strikers, I’d rather have Isak starting than Ekitike because I've seen him do it before. Don't get me wrong, I think Ekitike has done fantastic and he's got so much to give."I'd be interested to see if it could be done with two of them up front or one of them on the left drifting in with Kerkez coming and overlapping a little bit more."
