Slaughter: Give Wirtz some time. In fact, he may have had 6-7 assists this season.

Hupu, October 18th: Liverpool head coach Slott and captain Van Dijk accepted an exclusive interview with British Sky Sports before the game against Manchester United.

Slaughter explicitly addressed the issue of Wirtz.

"If you sign a player for such a high price, people mainly look at goals and assists, but I can tell you that he may have had six or seven assists."

If you look at the passes he gave to his teammates, unfortunately these passes did not translate into goals. One of the most typical examples was against Chelsea. After one minute of playing, he gave Salah a wonderful pass.

For Salah, the probability of scoring a goal is as high as 99%. I can only say 98%, because the last time he scored like this was against Atletico Madrid, Wirtz passed the ball to him, but Salah hit the post

He had a bit of bad luck with the shot when he created opportunities for his teammates, but for a 22-year-old player, it is normal to play in another country (with room to adapt), let alone the Premier League. "

Sloter compared Wirtz's slow start to former Manchester City midfielder De Bruyne.

"Maybe I'm underestimating the best midfielder in Premier League history, De Bruyne, who was only 21 or 22 years old when he joined Chelsea.

I want to say, give him some time. I'll definitely give him a little time, but at the same time, he's been having some bad luck.

He has to play, and he has played a lot of games. Because he comes from a different league and has played so many games, it is normal to occasionally need games where he is not available, as I have done with Salah and many other players.

In order to be at his best, of course he has to play, and that's exactly what he did and what he's going to do over the next few weeks. "
