“Wirtz played out on the left wing on Saturday because they’re trying to put Wirtz into another position because he struggled,” he said on The Game Podcast.“Do I think he’s not a great player? No, of course he’s got fabulous talent, I watched him at Bayer Leverkusen.“He’s a fantastic footballer, but he’s struggling at Liverpool at the moment.

He’s finding it hard to make an impact. He’s getting caught on the ball here.

But I do feel like there was a lot wrong.”Florian Wirtz needs help from his teammatesThere is no denying that Wirtz has not been as good as many thought he would be, but he has equally not been as bad as the media have painted him out.The 22-year-old has shown flashes of brilliance and if he can improve his consistency, then that elusive goal or assist will come. However, he is also having to drop a little deeper to pick up the ball due to his teammates around him also struggling, making it much harder for him to have an impact in the final third.If he is given the freedom to play as an out-and-out number 10, then he can be judged a little more vigorously, although he would likely prove the doubters wrong.
