Better performance

Szoboszlai has been inconsistent in his performances for some time. He has the ability to produce outstanding displays and they have coincided with games where he has been non-existent.

The 24-year-old played second fiddle to Curtis Jones at No. 10 before the international break. Jones dropped to central midfield yesterday with Alexis Mac Allister alone on the bench for the match.

Mac Allister got a break after returning late from his shift in Argentina. The decision was a blessing for Szoboszlai, who stepped up with a performance that impressed coach Arne Slot.

Liverpool face real Madrid in it champions league in the middle of the week. Szoboszlai should keep his place in attacking midfield as Jones will most likely drop to the bench to compensate for the return of Mac Allister.
