Florian Wirtz - Welcome to LFC

[BootRoom]

A game like today he should have been in his element, demonstrating the reason he was brought here for big money - to unlock defences, not constantly give the ball away around the edge of the box.

[fidget]

Gapko and Salah starting hardly helped.

[danperkins]

They didn't but doesn't excuse Wirtz from having a **** display either. Nobody gets a pass tonight apart from Szob.

****ing hell Dan you don't half seem to relish it when we're **** and you can stick the boot in.

Yeah I love it, it's great.

Wirtz played well today but found his two nemeses alongside him.

He misplaced a couple but that's going to happen when you actually try and play quick inventive passes.

[danperkins]

I didn't think he played well at all, slow and timid. He's far from our biggest concern though.

[vlahka]

Slot has no idea how to use him. With our slow play and reliance on having half the team sitting with the entire opponent team, it gives him no room to do what he does properly. Our players should be protecting him as he moves around with the ball but instead they just stand around like fat lollipops.

this is also true.

He's far from slow and timid, he wants the ball and wants to move it on quick, but the players around him stand still.

I think you're confusing quick on the ball or quick in mind with physically quick, which he is absolutely not and he's been bounced around since arriving in the prem, just the truth and does not mean he isn't an outstanding technician.

[Buzzo]

Getting the stats some of his play early in the season deserved.

He’s ****ing magic. His ceiling is so high as well I think he is nowhere near his potential.

His understanding with Hugo is the foundation of the future of the club.

[peterbread]

He looks the type to bring the best out of others as well. Knows how to bring them into the game with his quick little passes and one touch football opens up space.

[BobTheCharmer]

He's linking play very well. I'm still unsure where he'll eventually fit. It leaves the midfield light when he's in the middle. But for now, he's doing exactly what made us pay the money.
