Florian Wirtz’s first season at Liverpool definitely did not go as planned, despite an improvement in performances in the second half of the campaign. So things were supposed to get much better in his second year.

Even without superstar Mo Salah, whose partnership with the former Leverkusen man did not always run smoothly, he still just cannot really get going. The clear leading figures in Liverpool’s attack at the moment are Cody Gakpo and Alexander Isak. Wirtz, meanwhile, is still stuck in a supporting role.
