Liverpool dramatically beat Bournemouth at Anfield to kick off the new Premier League season, but the game left Arne Slot with a major tactical question to answer

Arne Slot says Florian Wirtz has exceeded Liverpool ’s high expectations so far, but says his “biggest strength” outweighs his ability on the ball. The 22-year-old attacking midfielder signed from Bayer Leverkusen this summer in a deal which could reach a British transfer record £116million.

Florian Wirtz joined Liverpool earlier this summer despite interest from Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Man City.
