Arne Slot has made a huge decision on Florian Wirtz before Liverpool's crunch clash with Manchester United.

The Reds had been flying at the top of the league - but a stumble in form has left them winless in three. Liverpool need all three points to get their season back and track, and Slot hasn't trusted Wirtz in his starting side.

The Reds shattered the British transfer record to bring the German to Anfield to from Bayer Leverkusen. However, he's struggled to make the same waves he did in the Bundesliga on these shores so far this season.

And there's no room for Wirtz in Slot's starting side - who has instead opted for a starting midfield of Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch.

Wirtz's former Leverkusen team-mate Jeremie Frimpong was also dropped as Conor Bradley come into defence.
