""The team have seen how much he did already for us, creating chances and being so close to a goal," Slot told Sky Sports. "Everyone in football knows if you don't score what is said about you. For him to score his first goal is nice, but it's only the start. "With his qualities, he will go on and score many more goals than only one for us. I think Florian did more than only score today.""
""It was very nice, the feeling on the pitch with the fans around. I was very happy and I still am," said Wirtz "I was confident that I would score one day. I wanted to start earlier scoring and assisting but it was like this and I have to accept it. I just know that it will come and I try to keep going like that. "We want to be there and be on top of the table. It's not been an easy start for us but we're doing better and getting the points.""
Florian Wirtz scored his first Liverpool goal in a 2-1 win over Wolves, following Ryan Gravenberch's opener and Santiago Bueno's second-half reply. The Germany international was a club-record signing from Bayer Leverkusen for a reported £116 million and registered his first Premier League goal after 21 shots, seven on target. Wirtz also set up Alexander Isak previously and completed seven of nine dribbles in the match, a level only two players have exceeded this season. Liverpool have won three successive Premier League games and are improving their league form.
