Former Liverpool players take aim at Bradley Barcola and Florian Wirtz for ‘ineffective’ Man City efforts
Story updated
The story in brief
29-second readWithout Alexander Isak, Cody Gakpo and, belatedly, Dominik Szoboszlai, Liverpool needed big performances from Bradley Barcola and Florian Wirtz against Manchester City on Sunday. The Reds’ two £100m+ men have not sparked since their respective signings, with Sunday a good time for them to finally deliver the goods.
According to former Liverpool players Daniel Sturridge and Stephen Warnock , however, neither Barcola nor Wirtz stepped up when needed against City.
Sturridge wants to see Wirtz shoot more Andoni Iraola resisted the urge to play Barcola through the middle against City, instead lining him up on the left, with Wirtz in his usual attacking midfield spot.
