0 goals and 0 assists in 11 games! A super parallel importer was born, worth as much as 130 million euros, Liverpool suffered a huge loss

No one thought that Liverpool, which spent 450 million pounds in the summer window, would perform so poorly! After 11 league games, Liverpool has only achieved a record of 6 wins and 5 losses, and its ranking has dropped to 8th, 8 points behind Arsenal at the top. In fact, Liverpool also played very hard in the games they won. In 4 games, they only won by 1 goal.

Liverpool's collapse started in the 6th round of the league. In that game, Liverpool faced their nemesis Crystal Palace, but was defeated in stoppage time and lost the game 1-2. Since then, Liverpool has fallen into a losing streak, losing to Chelsea, Manchester United and Brentford. This wave of 4 consecutive losses in the league has caused Liverpool's ranking to continue to decline. Although Liverpool won the game against Aston Villa and got out of the cycle of invincibility. However, the good times did not last long. In the subsequent game against Manchester City, Liverpool lost, and it was a 0-3 defeat, which was very demoralizing.

One of the main reasons for Liverpool's poor record is the poor performance of new players. The new player with the worst performance is undoubtedly Wirtz, who is worth as much as 130 million euros. Liverpool spent 125 million euros to introduce Wirtz. As a result, Wirtz's performance was disappointing. He started 7 of the 11 league games and came on the bench in 4. As a result, he scored 0 goals and 0 assists, which is very incredible. You must know that he scored double-digit goals and assists in Leverkusen in the last two seasons. But at Liverpool it was like a different player. Liverpool really suffered a big loss.

"The Telegraph" analyzed the reasons for Wirtz's poor performance and believed that there were three major reasons. First of all, his confrontation ability is insufficient. In the Premier League, his confrontation success rate was only 35%, while last season his confrontation success rate in the Bundesliga was 45%, which has dropped a lot. In other words, he has not yet adapted to the physical intensity of English football. Secondly, he didn't touch the ball enough in key positions. He averaged 58 touches per game in the Premier League this season, but last season he averaged 80 touches per game in the Bundesliga. In the attacking third, his number of touches has also dropped significantly, from 45 last year to 27 now.

The last reason is that the poor performance of his teammates dragged down his data. Wirtz has created 16 scoring opportunities for his teammates in the Premier League so far this season. Only 7 players have created more opportunities than Wirtz. However, his teammates were all wasted, resulting in Wirtz's assist data still being zero. In any case, Wirtz's performance now makes him labeled as a big parallel import. Can he get back to his peak form in the future? Let’s wait and see!
