1 week agoFour Liverpool players who have not played up to their standard this season
Liverpool's season has been disappointing, with key players underperforming and a lack of fighting spirit evident on the pitch.
Christopher Nkunku's start to life at AC Milan has certainly not been great. In fact, the Frenchman's start could be classed as much worse. Moving to a new league is never easy, especially when the summer has been filled with problems at your old club. So we cannot be too harsh regarding Nkunku. However, it is difficult to really be positive about the attacker.
Florian Wirtz has endured a difficult start to life in the Premier League, failing to register a single goal or assist in his 11 appearances to date. The Germany international, signed by Liverpool for a huge 116 million from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer, has fared better in the Champions League, but so far the consensus is that he has thoroughly underwhelmed.
The Orioles, projected for 88 wins, find themselves at 36-47, showcasing an unexpected underperformance despite high hopes for their talent-rich roster.
