Ryan Gravenberch should not be sitting on the bench and Florian Wirtz playing for Liverpool.“I struggle to think of one game where he’s won Liverpool the game, he’s been the man if you like,” the former Liverpool defender said. “But I think you could make a case for there being 10 or 12 players in Liverpool’s Premier League era in that position who have done more than Florian Wirtz.”Speaking to Football Insider, King said he “could see” a scenario where Wirtz departs Liverpool, making a return to his homeland in the process: “I know for a fact that sources were telling me some time ago they had the chance to sign the boy, Cherki, who’s at Man City.

“Now, as good a player as he might be, he certainly ain’t shown anything like what he was performing in Germany in the first six or seven matches he’s played for Liverpool this season. Pressure has really cranked up on Wirtz in recent weeks, and it’s starting to wear thin because he’s made a poor start to his second season at Liverpool.

He’s got the world at his feet. His awareness of what’s around him is superb, he’s always looking to create goals, he’s always trying to get on the scoresheet as well.” Wirtz simply must improve hugely this season if he is to make the grade at Liverpool, however, or they may have a decision to make when the campaign reaches its conclusion.
