Compilation of Florian Wirtz performance against AC Milan has emerged and it's got fans talking

Florian Wirtz made his Liverpool debut on Saturday and a compilation of his display has got fans talking online.

Wirtz became Liverpool's record signing earlier this summer, joining in an £116 million switch from Bayer Leverkusen in a huge statement of intent from the Premier League champions.

The Germany international, who penned a contract until 2030, made his first appearance in a behind-closed-doors friendly win over Stoke City at the AXA Training Centre and had fans salivating watching the highlights.

Wirtz and his Liverpool teammates stepped up their preparations for the new campaign with a friendly against AC Milan in Hong Kong as part of a two-game trip to Asia.

But the Reds were beaten 4-2, with Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo on target and Rafael Leao, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Noah Okafor (2) finding the net for the Rossoneri.

With new £79 million striker Hugo Ekitike not ready for an appearance and Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz not in the squad, Wirtz lined up as a false nine for the clash.

The 22-year-old played 45 minutes and demonstrated his signature drop of the shoulder in between the lines but did not manage a goal or assist despite 91% pass accuracy and 1/2 dribbles completed.

However, his showing was met by mixed reactions by fans online - with some impressed and others not convinced after one game.

One fan on X commented: "Florian Wirtz, I’m standing up and applauding."

But another said: "Is this a fail comp."

A third wrote: It’s ok I guess, nothing super impressive tho."

A fourth stated: "This comp was made to make him look good and I see nothing impressive."

A final person disagreed, adding: The quality of his first touch is mad. Literally never messes it up and always sets himself up for the next action."

Liverpool stars have been impressed by Wirtz' quality, with Ryan Gravenberch hailing the 22-year-old's ability.

"I think everyone knows Florian and also here in training he is a really good player: technical, really good vision," said the Dutchman.

"So I am really happy that he is here and I can't wait for the season to start also to play with him."

Liverpool return to action on Wednesday when they take on Yokohama F. Marinos in Japan.
