Florian Wirtz was instrumental as Liverpool returned to winning ways in the Premier League, while his role continues to present manager Andoni Iraola with a major tactical dilemma.
The Germany international’s contribution helped Liverpool secure a league victory, bringing an end to their recent sequence without a win. His performance was central to the result and underlined his importance to the team.
However, Wirtz’s influence has not removed questions about how best to use him within Iraola’s system. The midfielder remains at the centre of a decision facing the Liverpool manager, who must balance the benefits of Wirtz’s contribution with the wider demands of the side.
Liverpool’s return to victory provides a positive outcome, but the issue surrounding Wirtz remains unresolved. Iraola will now have to consider whether the approach that brought success should be retained as the Premier League campaign continues.
