Personally, I think it's too early to be drawing sweeping conclusions about Florian Wirtz.
But it's an inevitable part of modern football (and also my job) so I've looked at the German's data to see how justified the criticisms are. 🔗👇

The form of Liverpool's Florian Wirtz is causing quite a debate, with @Carra23 questioning if he'll ever live up to the hype in the Premier League.
@DavidSegar_ has had his say too, armed with Opta data. Are criticisms of Wirtz fair? 🤔

Barcelona have scored 26 goals in six games in all competitions this season. At that rate, if they played the same number of games as last season (57), they will score 247 goals in total.

Coventry and Tottenham are yet to score in the Premier League after four games, and Aston Villa have started slowly, again.
Never fear, though, we are here to find the data to give fans optimism that their season can still be saved. 👇

Feels like referees are getting in the way of the ball more than ever. Reckon Michael Oliver has had more touches than Haaland today.

Elversberg host Bayern Munich this afternoon, somewhat remarkably ahead of them in the Bundesliga table.
I've written about the German top flight's newest club, who could be one of the great entertainers this season.
