Dont know how much longer we can persist with wirtz in the team offering absolutely nothing so far.

Zippy - posters on here will tell you it's a witch hunt, he's the creative spark, and needs better runners around him, and it's not his fault.
People will seemingly make excuses for him until the cows come home.
The reality is he isn't doing the basics - simple passes, controlling the ball, winning duels, challenging for 50/50s.
Whether people are blind to it or just so desperate for him to succeed and not admit it - he's playing poorly, should be dropped and Dom should be released into the 10 role.
To be clear - if things don't change, Wirtz will be known as one of the biggest transfer flops in Premier League history.

He needs dropping until we see a positive response. So disappointed with him it's unbelievable.

We were never a team set up for a 10.
The game now demands so much more from these luxury 10's.
You don't get from wirtz the strength, physicality or aerial ability you'd get with a Bellingham.
He could be a fantastic player but unless there's a overhaul in several first team positions, he's not going to be a long term Liverpool player.
We have a lot of big earners who are not consistently good passers. That's a major issue.

100 % lads I just don't think he's suited to the pace and physicality of the league unless he ups his game I can see us taking a hit on him next summer and letting him go.
Really hope he can prove us all wrong and go on to have a super successful career with us but nothing is changing so I just can't see it personally.

I really really hope he comes good, he undoubtedly has talent, but is so ineffective. He covers ground and tries but never really makes an impact .i sadly think he needs dropping for a while too.

Between him and Isak that's a quarter of a billion not very well spent.
20 Sep 2026 15:14:44
As I was just saying.

I think Wirtz will return from the international break a different player.
He will either listen to Klopp's advice and push on, or he will take the easy option and wait for Bayern to make their move.
However, today, apart from the run that took the defender away from Isak for our goal, Wirtz offered very little. Passed badly and couldn't trap the ball to save his life. He needs to be stronger on the ball too.

Hope Wirtz kicks on and becomes the player we bought or he can be but I think he will be sold this summer if things don't improve.
