Speaking to the media, Henry suggested that players from the Bundesliga may struggle to perform in other top European leagues. He noted that the Bundesliga is a highly competitive league where players who can run quickly have many opportunities to score and create chances for their teammates.

Henry's comments have sparked debate about Wirtz's ability to succeed in the Premier League. Manager Arne Slot has yet to get the best out of Wirtz, and the player will face a crucial period in the lead-up to the Christmas break and the Africa Cup of Nations, where he will be needed to perform for his team.

It remains to be seen whether Wirtz will be able to overcome his current struggles and live up to his previous form, but Henry's comments have certainly added to the uncertainty surrounding his future at Liverpool.
