This should be the largest story in the news. It should be everywhere in the media. Kushner should wind up in prison because of it. But you won’t hear about it and nothing will happen to him.

I've called Szoboszlai Liverpool's version of Bruno at times for various reasons (good and bad), and I stand by it.
Clearly an excellent footballer with lots to offer, but is it just a coincidence that the Reds are more balanced without him?

I mean, there was a very clear and valid reason people were talking about him because he went to known Zionist spots and his wife follows pro IDF pages, two things can be true at once, he’s a Liverpool player now so what else are people supposed to do? Clown

The narrative around Wirtz is mental to be honest.
Go look back at the first 10 games of last season, he could have easily had 10+ assists.
He set Salah up for 3 clear chances in one game, I think people thought he was a different type of player.
He creates chances, but he doesn't force it, he can control a game without really creating a top chance, although he still does.
He created 3-4 goal scoring chances on the weekend, and about 8 transitions from defence to attack that ended in a goal threat.
It has always been about giving him space, I've said it for months and months, him and Szoboszlai are a problem, because Szoboszlai loves to drive with the ball into the space Wirtz occupies.
It is all about getting the balance, not the quality of Wirtz, and Iraola is clearly getting it right.

When watching it today remember it is really windy. Quite extreme weather. So when a pass looks weird or a centre back doesn't head it when it looks easy it could be related to that.
Jurgen used to mention the wind and everyone used to lose their minds.

Today, Brad Lander, rabbis, and other New Yorkers accompanied Palestinian farmers during the olive harvest. For that, they were detained by the Israeli government.
Harvesting olives is not illegal. The occupation is.
I am thankful that Brad has been released. But other New Yorkers remain detained, and they must be released immediately.
The same Israeli government detaining them has committed a horrific genocide against Palestinians, killing more than 74,000 people over the last few years alone.
The detention of these New Yorkers must end. The occupation must end. The genocide must end.

The side of Wirtz’s game nobody talks about…and if they do, he gets criticised for it…why?
Wirtz Absolutely SMASHES Declan Rice in effectiveness here, absolutely unreal! Why some people can't see the wood for the trees is redonkulous. #ynwa

Nine chances created from Florian Wirtz v Brentford (all from open play).
No Liverpool player on record (from 2003-04) has ever created more in a single Premier League game. #LFC

Florian Wirtz is the first player to create 9 chances in a PL game in two years.
Last player to do it: Dejan Kulusevski vs Man United in September 2024.

These lot always need to have it worse or better than everyone else. Tell a Liverpool fan you’ve been to Tenerife and he’s been to Elevenerife

Trey Nyoni is a catalyst for Wirtz, finding him in the pockets of space. Flo rediscovers his joy for the game when someone who understands his personality is around him.
There was one sequence in particular: Trey → Wirtz → Barcola, built around two vertical passes, with Wirtz receiving on the half-turn and immediately playing a pass in behind the defensive line to release the runner (Barcola).
The art lies in putting together a team where players feel comfortable around one another, which in turn translates onto the pitch. The environment will always be the priority when it comes to getting the best out of players #LFC

“Why do you baby Wirtz so much?!”
Looking for any silver lining in a transfer that hasn’t worked out so far is babying now. Yet nobody has an issue with the other extreme. Let’s all join the pile on & give our players stick in a tough period. Because that’s what they need 👍
