While speaking on ESPN, the pundit said,
“I’ve got to say, and once again, Szoboszlai is absolutely scary. The guy’s so smooth it’s frightening.
And he always makes great decisions, he always picks the right pass. The guy, so far, has been absolutely phenomenal. And long may it continue.”

The 23-year-old has been a phenomenal signing for LFC. He has been signed at a crucial time especially when most of the senior midfielders left the club.
And since day one he has established himself as an influential player.
So far this season he has scored 2 goals and assisted 2 in 13 appearances across all competitions.

The Hungarian captain is already very young and has innate leadership skills. And he has found himself as a starter in most matches on Klopp’s team-sheet.
Szoboszlai has already been compared with Kevin De Bruyne for possessing similar attributes.
Considering his young age and leadership skills, there is no doubt that he will be the one to lead the Liverpool team in the future.
An ardent football fan and a proud Red. I take immense pleasure in analyzing the intricacies of the game.
