The German international cannot convince for the “Reds” – and is sharply criticized after the 0: 1 at Galatasaray.
The “Daily Express” commented: “Liverpool needs a lot more of a player that you have set so much. He doesn’t look confident.” The “Daily Star” also recalled the scene in front of the penalty for Galatasaray: “He lost the ball in the situation that led to the penalty.”
The fan side “This is anfield” also critically judged: “It will be really difficult for Liverpool’s magicians.” And further: “The former Leverkusener currently has no game flow, it will be very frustrated after another game in which it simply didn’t fit for him.”
Especially in the first round, Wirtz revealed major problems. He did not get a goal participation or key passes, lost three out of five duels and failed in all three dribbles.
After the change of sides, the 21-year-old increased something and was allowed to stay on the pitch over the entire season. However, he hardly had any influence on the game: 57 ball contacts, three shots and only four duels won at twelve attempts were on the statistics list. There were 14 ball losses.
