Wirtz has been many observers' scapegoat for Liverpool's poor start, with suggestions that he has upset the balance of a team that was so impressive last season. “Even when he's not doing really well on the pitch in all those games, there's always enough moments, enough situations that everybody can see the quality with so many good decisions, good passes but they don’t get finished.

He's maybe even trying too hard now because he feels a little bit of pressure, of course, but the quality is there. Wirtz is yet to record a goal or an assist in the Premier League (Image: 2025 Chris Brunskill/Fantasista) “I wouldn't be surprised if they go on a great run of winning games and then to really be back challenging for the title.” Some of Wirtz's better performances have come in the Champions League, and Biscan believes that the slower tempo of European games have suited him while he continues to adapt to the ferocious pace of the Premier League.

“I don't know how Wirtz feels when he plays in Europe, but I think when he plays in the Champions League games, there is a little more space and time on the ball for him when you compare the rhythm or style of play to the Premier League," Biscan added. “It's not so intense, and for this reason, he just finds it a little easier, and then he can show what he's capable of showing and that's just pure class, he could help Liverpool go all the way.
