'I would not be questioning Wirtz's ability'
- Published
Chief football writer Phil McNulty has been answering your questions on all things Premier League.
Jamie asked: Florian Wirtz's form is going under the radar a bit. For £116m, you want an instant impact. A handful of games in and he hasn't produced one standout performance yet. At what stage do we start to question his Premier League ability?
Phil answered: He has been quiet, but I actually thought there were real signs of Florian Wirtz settling in for Liverpool at Burnley on Sunday. He linked the play a lot and seemed to be developing an understanding with those around him.
It's early days and even the best players need time to settle and fit into a new team. I certainly would not be questioning his Premier League ability. I am sure he will come good and thought the signs were there at Turf Moor.
