"He's finished at Liverpool" - Former midfielder makes bizarre claim about Liverpool signing

"After the defeat against Manchester City, Liverpool midfielder Florian Wirtz has once again recived criticism for his performance. Signed in a 116 million move from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer transfer window, Wirtz has failed to live up to expectations. The Germany international midfielder has still not scored or assisted a goal for the Merseyside club in the Premier League. His poor form has coincided with Arne Slot's team going through their worst period in a long time."

"The defending Premier League champions have lost five matches in the league already, having played 11 matches in total so far. Liverpool have failed to perform this season From being top of the league in September, they are now eighth in the league table, even behind Manchester United. Former Real Madrid and Inter Milan midfielder has fired a warning to Wirtz and told him to adapt quickly or he's finished at Liverpool."

"I always say this about players with a German or Dutch mentality. You can play well in your own country, but they often have problems adapting in other countries. Wirtz was in the right place in Germany, everything was a good fit. But now he has taken a big step and at a big club you don't have time to settle in. You have to deliver immediately."

"It's just not happening for Wirtz at Liverpool. Whether it is the physicality of the Premier League or the pace, the midfielder is unable to perform for Slot's team. In the summer transfer window, it looked like this is going to be one of the signings of the summer but it has turned out to be a complete disaster. Football pundit Gary Neville has also joined the conversation and claimed that Wirtz looked like a little boy' against Man City at the Etihad Stadium."

Florian Wirtz joined Liverpool in a 116 million move from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer transfer window. The Germany international has not scored or assisted a Premier League goal for Liverpool. Criticism intensified after the defeat against Manchester City. His form has coincided with Liverpool's worst period in years, with five league defeats from 11 matches and a drop from first in September to eighth, behind Manchester United. Wesley Sneijder warned that Wirtz must adapt quickly or risk being finished at Liverpool. Pundits including Gary Neville have criticised his performance, citing struggles with Premier League physicality and pace.
