Alexander Isak has also failed to hit the back of the net in the league since his £125m move from Newcastle on deadline day, with his only contribution coming in the club's 2-1 Carabao Cup win over Southampton last month.And while a number of football fans and pundits will hope to see improved performances from some of the summer's marquee signings imminently, Dalglish has explained that supporters could have to grin and bare it for a few months while the players gel as a group.Speaking on Stick To Football, the former Liverpool forward and manager said: "I don’t think the team that we’ve got at the moment is at its best. I think they’ve got a couple of months to go, and then you’ll see them."I think the wee fella Wirtz is a very, very clever boy football-wise, he just needs to get on the same plains as the one in front of him.

I think the players are set, but they’ve no time."I think giving them a bit of time to get used to playing to each other and I think they’ll be better than what they are now. Speaking on CBS Sports after Liverpool's Champions League loss to Galatasaray, the pundit said: "I'm not watching a top team."Liverpool are not playing football, they are playing basketball.

Right now, the balance of the team is not right, and the obvious one that stands out is Florian Wirtz, who is just not at the races at all."He's a young boy, coming to a new league, and has plenty of time to go. But right now, he needs to come out of the team, Liverpool go back to what they were last season, and try to build some confidence and some stability.
