Is Florian Wirtz Broken… or Are EPL Fans Impatient?
Update: 2025-11-24
Description
This week, Marko and Mark dive into the Premier League’s £3 billion pressure cooker and ask the question fans hate asking: Are we expecting too much, too fast from young stars?
Using Florian Wirtz’s slow Liverpool start as the headline example - despite him shining for Germany with multiple goal involvements in their 6–0 win over Slovakia - the guys explore why the EPL chews up early hype and spits out “flops” before they’ve even unpacked their suitcases.
Mark vents about instant-gratification culture.
Marko pulls receipts on Henry, Vinicius, and Ødegaard - all slow starters who became world-beaters.
Together, they look at the Bundesliga talent pipeline, Manchester United’s eternal “next Haaland” obsession, and why Liverpool’s rebuild might take longer than fans think.
It’s smart, it’s semi-serious, it’s semi-informed - and very Premier League. To contact us reach out to semiinformedfootball@gmail.com
