The moment Liverpool fans have been waiting for has finally arrived — Florian Wirtz is in the starting XI. Arne Slot has handed the 21-year-old German playmaker his full debut in tonight’s high-stakes fixture, and the buzz around Anfield is electric.
Signed in a blockbuster summer move from Bayer Leverkusen, Wirtz has captured the imagination of the fanbase from the moment he touched down on Merseyside. And now, with his name confirmed in the lineup, supporters are letting their excitement be heard loud and clear.
“This is what we’ve been waiting for! Wirtz starting means business!”
“Slot’s cooking something special. Wirtz is going to light up Anfield!”
These are just some of the reactions flooding social media, where the fanbase has erupted with memes, hype, and bold predictions. After weeks of impressive cameos off the bench, Wirtz is finally getting his moment to shine — and Liverpool fans are expecting fireworks.
Renowned for his vision, close control, and fearless playmaking, Wirtz has often been compared to elite midfielders of the modern era. Slot, eager to stamp his identity on this evolving Liverpool side, clearly believes the time is right to unleash his midfield maestro from the outset.
Still, not all fans are riding the hype train without caution.
“It’s a huge moment for him — first Premier League start under the Anfield lights. Hope he doesn’t feel the pressure,” one fan shared on Facebook.
Whether Wirtz dazzles or faces growing pains, one thing is certain: this marks a pivotal new chapter at Liverpool. And with Anfield roaring, expectations sky high, and the spotlight firmly fixed on their new No.10, all eyes are now on the pitch.
