"Liverpool signed Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer transfer window for a fee of 100m. The Germany international midfielder was being tipped as one of the best moves of the summer transfer window. His brilliant record with the German club and the national team made him an obvious hit before even kicking a ball for Arne Slot's team. However, it has turned out to be completely disastrous for him, as well as Liverpool."
"To be honest, the overall situation doesn't make it easy for Flo either, said Nagelsmann. The whole club isn't as stable this year as it was last year. It's much harder to slip into the team now. If you look at the game against [Manchester] City, they were actually the worse team over the 90 minutes. So it's also difficult for Flo to make a big impact."
Liverpool signed Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for 100m in the summer. Wirtz arrived with a strong record for club and country but has not scored or assisted in the Premier League after 11 matches. Liverpool sit eighth after losing seven of their last ten games under Arne Slot. Media and fans have criticized Wirtz for lack of impact. Germany boss Julian Nagelsmann attributed responsibility to team instability and adaptation challenges rather than the player. Nagelsmann noted teammates often avoid shooting, the club is less stable than last year, and Wirtz needs more time to settle into the Premier League. Liverpool recently lost 3-0 to Manchester City.
