He shouldn't even be in the same sentence as Salah, when will this disrespect stop against him

Jürgen Klopp: “I think everyone at Liverpool is very happy today!”.
“The way we want to play suits Florian Wirtz… he is full of love for the game, and he has given everything he has”.

We always knew Wirtz had it in him, he needs to bring that confidence with him back to Liverpool now so it's time to back him even more now

In 2022, Guardiola said of these accusations/his owners: "I said to them, 'If you lie to me, the day after I am not here. I will be out and I will not be your friend any more.'"
Yet he's still backing them in the face of this judgement, so the question now is: what did he know?
I want every single @ManCity fan to know I am here; more than ever. I am, always have been, always will, be behind my club, my owner, my chairman, Ferran, the players, staff, Enzo and you, our unique supporters.
Let me be clear: we will get through this together.
I love you all 🩵

Jürgen Klopp on Manchester City verdict: “I can only wait and see. I have big respect for Guardiola and City's style of football; they played fantastic and were a top class opponent for us”.
“If any sanctions are handed out, I have nothing to do with it; I'll wait and see”.

On Manchester City’s case:"Obviously they have to be punished; there has to be a huge points deduction or relegation. They were found guilty of breaching the rules, and if you do that, you have to face the consequences. So, I think a huge points deduction or automatic relegation would be the right action. Relegation might not be easy because we are a quarter of the way into the season, so maybe a 50 or 60 points deduction will be applied, and this is the most likely punishment in my opinion."

"On Mo Salah’s departure, "I think it went on for too long, and obviously Mohamed Salah said one or two things I didn't agree with, considering there was no point in proving his worth every single year, whereas I think you start from scratch every season. I think he made one or two mistakes as well, and in the end, they found a solution which I think both parties could live with
Salah and Slot's relationship, I think it came at a time where he struggled to score goals from open play, because even in the season they won the league, he didn't score too many goals from open play in the second half of the season. Consequently, the manager was in a tricky position because he was an undroppable player for a long time, but obviously, at some stage, this decision had to be made
Salah, of course, is a big loss because not only did he score a massive number of goals, but he was never injured and could always be relied upon to score a lot of important goals. There is no doubt that a player like him is not easily replaced; they still miss his goals when he was in his prime. But someone else has to step up now, and hopefully, Gakpo will shine and adapt, and hopefully, he will perform well at some stage."

"On Florian Wirtz, I don't really know what the problem is with Liverpool. He is an outstanding player, and sometimes it seems the pace of the game is too quick for him. His confidence is obviously very low, and I think he tries too hard sometimes; he runs so much without the ball that he lacks energy and composure when he has it. This just shows he wants to prove his worth, but I think his low confidence drives him to make a lot of bad decisions, like passing when he should dribble, or dribbling when he should pass, and therefore he cannot impact the game as expected of him."
Being with Germany Nt, it could help him. He played one or two good games for Germany last season even when he was out of form. But if you don't perform well for your club, it is usually very hard to shine for the German national team. And even if he performs well for them, he will return to Liverpool, and I don't think two games with the national team will make a big difference. He came on as a substitute recently and didn't perform well in the 20 minutes he played against Greece, so we just have to hope he regains his form at some stage."
"As for Iraola, he did very well at Bournemouth, and obviously Liverpool is a completely different challenge. But the problem I see is that three or four players were brought in last season for a lot of money, and apart from Hugo Ekitike, who has been out for a long time and might return by Christmas, no one performed well. Isak started the season well, which is a positive, so hopefully, he can lead the attacking line. But obviously, the likes of Gakpo, Frimpong, and Wirtz have to perform better, and if they don't, I think it will be another long season, and I'm not sure they will finish in the top four."
