Florian Wirtz said he was convinced his goal would be ruled offside after a long VAR check in Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at Fulham. The match swung late when Harrison Reed scored in stoppage time to deny Liverpool victory.

Carragher questioned how the goal was given.

Fans and pundits stress that no player is bigger than the club, while others defend his past contributions.

With United unlikely to extend his contract beyond 2026, the winger faces a decisive spell under Unai Emery to salvage his career at Villa.
