Liverpool midfielder Wirtz was interviewed by the club's official website and talked about the preview of the Premier League game against Manchester City, Anfield Stadium and his role in the team:
"I think the game against Real Madrid really helped us find the right energy level to reach this week. It was a good test and we were ready to compete again. We had the right mentality from the start and performed well in the match and put in enough effort to compete with Real Madrid, which I think is the key to our success. It's good to compete at a high level and perform well on the pitch. "
"I certainly talked to my teammates (against Manchester City) and they told me it's going to be a tough game because City have a lot of possession and they need to run a lot. In good condition and we have recovered, this should be an exciting game. We must seize the opportunity and make a good plan for this game. "
After Liverpool went through a difficult period, their recent two consecutive wins and clean sheets have boosted the team's morale. Talking about this, Wirtz added: "I think this is very important for our team, for the whole club, and for the atmosphere in the stadium. We are very happy to get two consecutive wins and hope to win again this weekend and then go into the international break with a good feeling."
"I must say, I I think playing against Real Madrid was the craziest home atmosphere I've had since I've been here. I really enjoyed it, the fans cheered us every move and I'm really grateful for their support and I'm looking forward to more nights like this. First of all, I enjoyed playing because I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to play, so I'm happy to be there. I just play where the coach wants me to play. Of course, I'm familiar with the position, but I can also play in the middle 10 position or on the left. I just try to do my best and play an important role for the team. I think I have established a good relationship with my teammates on the field. Good contact. Of course, the numbers aren't outstanding at the moment, but I just try to do my best every game, that's always been my style, and I'm happy that I can create some chances in the coming weeks and months, and I'm just trying to use my strengths to help the team.Mini-game recommendations:WW1 Battle Simulator
