Wenger analyzes Liverpool s recent slump, Wirtz destroyed the original midfield system

Liverpool spent 116 million pounds to sign new German midfielder Wirtz (Cantonese translation: Wise) this summer. He has still not been well integrated into the team. Former Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger made some analysis. He bluntly said that Liverpool signed Wirtz and arranged for him to play at the 10th position, which destroyed the original midfield system and disrupted the team's offensive and defensive balance.

Wenger believed that Liverpool made a mistake by signing Wirtz and agreeing to let him play the No. 10 position: "When Wirtz was choosing between Bayern Munich and Liverpool, in order to attract Wirtz to join, Liverpool agreed to let him play the No. 10 position. As a result, this decision disrupted its midfield system and also harmed Wirtz."

"Liverpool's original midfield combination was complete, with Ryan Hrafenberch, McAllister, and Szoboszlai as the three midfielders. However, in order to accommodate Wirtz, they had to make room, and Szoboszlai had to switch to right back. As a result, the midfield system was destroyed."

"In the last two games, Liverpool's Slott is no longer stubborn, and the midfield has returned to the previous three-midfield configuration. Wirtz no longer plays the No. 10 position but instead plays on the left." As a result, Liverpool won consecutive games against Aston Villa and Real Madrid for the first time since the end of September.
