Steven Gerrard in Jamie Carragher disagreement as Liverpool icon makes Florian Wirtz plea

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has warned against writing off £116million playmaker Florian Wirtz. The former Reds captain believes the Germany international is short of confidence and needs support from senior players at Anfield . The 23-year-old has had a difficult start to life on Merseyside after Arne Slot's side won the race to sign him, last summer. In his second season in the Premier League , Wirtz's struggles persist and he was brought off during the 3-0 defeat to Manchester City having failed to make an impact in the encounter.
