"I love him. He's a fantastic player. He will be unbelievable, trust me. Hopefully, he will be patient. Hopefully, he'll have good people around him, agent, family, whatever. Hopefully, the coach sees his quality like everybody sees him. I'm sure that everybody sees his quality, and they'll give him that time that he needs to fit into the team. And I guarantee you, he's going to be a success."
"The way he sees football, how he looks for the space, how he knows how to position himself, the touches on the ball, the improvisation, the eye for the pass and for the goals, he explained. Of course, someone can argue that his physique is not that great for the Premier League. But then you can easily see the great players of his position, like Modric, also the same build."
Dimitar Berbatov urged patience for Florian Wirtz after his record £116m move to Liverpool, noting the 22-year-old has yet to record a Premier League goal or assist. Berbatov praised Wirtz's vision, positioning, ball touches, improvisation and passing ability, and guaranteed eventual success if given time and support from coach, agent and family. Berbatov defended Wirtz's slight physique by comparing him to Luka Modric, highlighting how similar builds did not prevent elite performances in the Premier League. Berbatov predicted Wirtz will be unbelievable for Liverpool once he adapts and is supported properly.
