TA: Wirtz can improve his performance in the next few months. Part of his poor data is due to his teammates wasting opportunities.

Today, TA wrote an article with James Pearce of the team, talking about his views on the current new Liverpool aid Wirtz.

Excerpts from the article:

Those who have begun to question the strength of the new players have poor memories. Firmino, Robertson and Fabinho all seemed a bit lost at the beginning of their careers at Liverpool, but they eventually stabilized, became influential figures in the team, and won top prizes. Patience is required.

Wiltz will benefit from international game days. The pace and physicality of English football was a culture shock for him, but he came on as a substitute against Chelsea and showed off his amazing talent.

The influence of this player who spent 116 million pounds on Liverpool will surely increase significantly in the next few months. So far, he hasn't reached the level expected, but some of the criticism is unfair.

According to data from Opta, so far this season, no player in the five major European leagues has created more opportunities than Wirtz's 22. Everton's Grealish ranks second with 21 times.

Yes, Wirtz has only provided one assist in Liverpool's 10 games so far (in the Community Shield loss to Crystal Palace in August), but that's partly because of his teammates' squandered chances.
