Liverpool fans loves Dominik Szoboszlai.
The Hungarian midfielder has performed strongly for Liverpool.
Liverpool's new number 8 has taken Liverpool by storm and has quickly become a darling among Liverpool fans. He is the highest-selling name on Liverpool shirts this season, and that says a lot, especially when Mohamed Salah is also at the club. His hard work and maximum effort in every game are qualities that Scousers appreciate, and when he is also technically strong, it brings back memories of Liverpool's former number 8, Steven Gerrard.
Once again, in the weekend's match against West Ham, he delivered a great performance:
◎ 81/87 passes completed (93%)
◎ 4 chances created
◎ 10 passes into final third
◎ 3 shots
◎ 2/3 accurate crosses
◎ 5/7 long balls completed
◎ 9 recoveries
◎ 3 ground duels won.
There were significant concerns in Liverpool when the transfer window closed, as there were doubts about whether the midfielders brought in were good enough to replace those who had departed. However, MacAllister and Szoboszlai have certainly brought a new dynamic to the midfield and have had a significant impact on the strong start to the season. Szoboszlai brings offensive creativity while possessing the energy that Klopp desires, and this is something that has been missing for a couple of seasons.
Dominik Szoboszlai in the Premier League:
Games: 6
Goals: 1
Assists: 0
Shots: 13
Chances created: 12
Pass success: 88.2%
To become even better, Szoboszlai needs to become more decisive in terms of goals or assists. He often plays a key role in the build-up to goals but is often the third man in the attacking sequences. After Salah, he is the Liverpool player who has created the most chances. He gets into goal-scoring positions and creates opportunities, so it's only a matter of time before he contributes with more goals and assists for the club. Liverpool fans have found a new darling, and at just 22 years old, he could potentially become a future star for the club.
