Florian Wirtz joined Liverpool this summer in a £116million transfer from Bayer Leverkusen but has failed to make much of an impact at Anfield, with his old club now supporting him onlineFlorian Wirtz has received support from Bayer Leverkusen after a tough start to life with Liverpool. Another fan added: "I backed [Darwin] Nunez for 3 years...I'll back flo for an eternity," while another said: "He’s 22 in a new league and system in a team that’s playing awful and people expect him to be prime De Bruyne, he’s actually created a lot of chances in games, especially against Atletico."Elsewhere, another user explained: "People asking what happened.
Yes he makes mistakes but he also shows moments of class if you actually watch him and he creates lots of chances."It comes as Jamie Carragher delivered a scathing assessment of Wirtz on CBS Sports after Liverpool suffered a narrow 1-0 loss to Galatasaray in the Champions League on Tuesday, with Victor Osimhen's penalty making the difference in the match. I think for the manager now, he now needs to really earn his money.
He did last season, by winning the Premier League, but there are few problems he has got to fix."It will be really interesting how he does about it, because he spent a lot of money on certain players. 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.
