Arne Slot has played Wirtz in multiple positions, but really he needs to be cemented as Liverpool’s central creative outlet. He concludes: “He’s establishing himself, putting his stamp on the game.



Even if he’s not scoring as many goals as he did at Leverkusen yet, that will come in year two or three. And you have to say, overall, he’s had a very good season.

Not the extraordinary season he had at Leverkusen, but he’s a top player, and that will all come back in time.” Hopefully the German boss is right. He will certainly want Wirtz to come into his own in the coming weeks, and carry form into the World Cup where he is set to play a central role.
