130 million euros. This is the sum spent by Liverpool to afford Florian Wirtz, considered unanimously as one of the best European circles of the moment, and author of Sacred Seasons with Bayer Leverkusen. Only, his first steps in England are a bit complicated, and he has already received many criticisms for his performances which, without being really bad, do not really impress English consultants and supporters.
Arne Slot had also already had to go up to the niche to defend the 22 -year -old German international, asking for time and patience for her blazing recruit. Difficulties also admitted by the principal concerned. “Of course, I would have liked to score a goal or make one more assist. But whatever we say, I remain calm. I know what I am capable of and I also know that I will end up giving the best of myself on the ground, so I remain calm ”he told Sky Germany in the middle of the week.
England awaits even more
Faced with Crystal Palace on Saturday, the German had a new opportunity to silence criticism, he who came out of a rather average entry into the derby against Everton the previous weekend. But on the lawn of the Eagles, he still struggled to be really influential in the game, and his counter always blocked at 0 goals and 0 assists in 6 first League games begins to cringe. “Florian Wirtz shows that he is still adapting while Crystal Palace stuns Liverpool”explains for example Sky Sports.
“Florian Wirtz has not yet found his marks – an expensive enigma that continues to hover on the new team midfielder”indicates for its part The Mirror. “While Wirtz tried to find a way to enter the match, his movements unbalanced the team”indicates the Liverpool Echo. Comments rather negative everywhere in the British media, that Wirtz will have the opportunity to erase on Tuesday evening on the side of Galatasaray … But in the event of a bad performance, his case will continue to be talked about.
