You’re a pure hypocrite if you think Iraola is not the manager for Liverpool.
Let’s go back to history.
How many years did it take Klopp to build Liverpool into the team we all wanted?
How many years did Arteta need to build Arsenal into a title-contending side?
And how many weeks has Iraola actually had at Liverpool?
You can criticise the performances, but already pushing the manager out this early makes absolutely no sense.
Give the man time to build his team.
Florian Wirtz is yet to have a bad game this season.
The goals and assists will come, but his overall performances have been consistently good.
Even in the Fulham game, where Liverpool struggled, he was still one of the few trying to make things happen. 🔴
This is actually pissing me off now
People say oh he’s been here 14 months, he should be performing. AGAIN perspective, he spent a season playing for a team emotionally drained by a team mate dying, a team hindered with injuries, in a system that didn’t work, so much so even one of the greatest players to ever play for Liverpool got benched!! PERSPECTIVE.
We have played 5 competitive games in a new system, which takes time to adapt and get to grips with things. We are still unbeaten, and he hasn’t even played badly.
Some of you are so spoilt, glory hunters, expect perfect, that’s not normal. Klopps teams weren’t perfect.
Give this team, and these players your support instead of dragging their names, like supporters are actually meant to do and see what they can achieve.
Social media is the WORST thing to ever happen to football.
Rant over.
Amid all the criticism around Wirtz, I personally think he’ll look like a different player with Ekitike around. Technically, they’re on the same wavelength.
However, I don’t think Isak–Wirtz is the right combination. Wirtz is a continental-style ball player, while Isak thrives on balls played directly into him. The problem is, if we play direct into Isak and lose possession, our defensive setup is exposed. Something that wasn’t an issue at Newcastle, where Isak had the perfect low-block setup behind him.
What really happened last summer was that we went into the market and married the best available No. 10 with the best available No. 9, without stopping to ask whether the marriage would actually work.
Still think that two good players should not get bogged down to a particular system.
