Liverpool have an easy way to move on from Florian Wirtz but they can’t do it just yet
Story updated
The story in brief
28-second readFlorian Wirtz’s lack of performance is once again the biggest topic to come out of a Liverpool match, after the German failed to turn up at all against Manchester City.
The Reds badly needed something from their £116m after seeing the influential trio of Alexander Isak, Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai all miss Sunday’s game.
However, Wirtz did not cover himself in glory before being sacrificed after Ryan Gravenberch’s red card. With the pressure ramping up on the 23-year-old all the time, the time feels like it is coming for Andoni Iraola to take him out of the team and try something different.
