"Barz? Don't worry"
It was the conviction of former Liverpool legend Jurgen Klopp. Birtz was a Liverpool player who opened a new chapter. Although it was immediately broken by Alexander Isaac, Liverpool spent £116 million (about KRW 214.8 billion), the highest ever in the English Premier League (EPL) to recruit Birz.
Bartz was called one of the best talents in the world beyond Germany. Birtz, who joined Leverkusen in January 2020, made his Bundesliga debut in May that year at the age of 17 years and 5 days. In June of the same year, he became the youngest Bundesliga scorer against Bayern Munich.
Leetz has emerged as a world-class player through the 2023-2024 season. Birtz, who led Leverkusen to an unbeaten victory in the German Bundesliga, was named MVP of the season, further raising his stock price. Birtz, who has both excellent skills and senses, has also emerged as an ace in the German national team, drawing attention from big clubs. Bayern, Manchester City, Real Madrid, etc. watched Birtz.
A major catastrophe has taken place. Liverpool, which won last season, took out all the bullets it had saved so far and succeeded in bringing Birz. Birtz was believed to be a key player in the Arne slot table Liverpool.
But so far, it has not met expectations. He is having difficulty adapting to the England stage. Except for the help posted by Community Shield, he has been silent in official games. Liverpool also fell into a slump in the meantime. After losing to Crystal Palace 1–2 in the league, they also collapsed 0–1 in the European Champions League against Galatasaray.
Birtz's play is on the chopping block. Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher told CBS Sports that `Liverpool is not playing football, they are playing basketball. Slot is a great coach. Liverpool, which was the top team last season, added to its star quality, but now it has a lot of problems to deal with."The balance has collapsed because it spent a lot of money on certain players. What stands out is Birtz. He's not up to his mark at all. We have plenty of time, but we have to take it out of the team right now."
So did Wayne Rooney. He wrote in the Telegraph that `Liverpool created a new combination of attacks. Everyone wants to perform well, but among them, Birtz is the least outstanding player" Birtz hurts balance and style. "It's a world class, and I'm sure it's going to get better in the future, but it's a difficult time, I'm sure."
Klopp, however, had a different idea. In an interview with RTL, he said "Birtz had a talent that could not come out once in a century. His qualities are too good. Soon we'll be showing up at Leverkusen. "If anyone is worried, I'd say don't worry. There is no need for that. Everything will be fine.' Coach Klopp is one of the masters of a new heyday, leading Liverpool to its first Premier League championship, which has been struggling in the dark ages.
