Liverpool fans have received a new icon following the summer signing of Dominik Szoboszlai.
The Hungarian international has made a bright start following his summer move from RB Leipzig to the Reds and after scoring a sublime goal against Leicester City on Wednesday night, the 22-year-old has been compared to Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard .
It may just be the start of our new number 8’s career, but we can already say that Micah Richards’ comments earlier in the season have already been proven wrong.
The former Manchester City defender told The Rest Is Football podcast (via Sport Bible) ahead of the new season: “Szoboszlai is a good player, I don’t know if he can keep up with the competition.
I think he’ll be a slow burner.Many players struggle with the pace and intensity of the Premier League, but Szoboszlai is thriving at the moment.
He seems to be getting better and better every week and it’s no surprise that he has played every minute of Liverpool’s six league games so far.
We will need the former RB Salzburg man to be at his best tomorrow when we travel to the capital to face Spurs in what is the toughest test of our season.
Winning the battle in midfield will be crucial against Ange Postecoglou’s team if we want to get anything out of the match.
