Matthaus: Wirtz must adjust his playing style at Liverpool to reach his potential

October 16th Sky Sports commentator expressed his opinion on Wirtz's slow start in Liverpool in his "Sky Sports" column. Matthaus believes that Wirtz needs a "personal breakthrough moment" to regain his confidence and game rhythm. While there were some bright moments at Liverpool, it was never enough for a player of his quality.

Matthaus believes that the transition process from Leverkusen to Liverpool is full of challenges, and explained: "In Leverkusen, he was protected by the coach, and his teammates will constantly look for him, while in Liverpool, he must adjust his playing style and prove himself."

Matthaus believes that once Wirtz adapts to the high-intensity rhythm of the Premier League, he will once again show the value that made Liverpool spend 130 million euros to sign him.

In addition, Matthäus praised German national team coach Nagelsmann for his support of Wirtz and mentioned the help provided by Voller as a familiar mentor, but he finally emphasized that Wirtz must regain his best form in order to fully realize his potential.
