Jurgen Klopp Hails “Top Bloke” Dominik Szoboszlai After Liverpool’s 3-1 Win Over Leicester
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has praised the performance of new signing Dominik Szoboszlai after his stunning goal from range helped the Reds to a 3-1 win over Leicester in the League Cup. Szoboszlai, who joined the club from RB Leipzig in the summer, came off the bench and scored just five minutes into his appearance at Anfield.
The Hungarian midfielder’s goal, which came after Cody Gakpo had already cancelled out Kasey McAteer’s opener, was a thing of beauty. Klopp was asked if he had encouraged Szoboszlai to shoot from those positions, to which he replied: “I don’t have to tell him to shoot, he knows better than me that he has a pretty good skill.”
Klopp was also full of praise for Szoboszlai off the pitch, describing him as a “top bloke” and a “super hard worker”. He added that Szoboszlai had taken to the team “from the first minute” and that he was enjoying his time at Liverpool.
Szoboszlai’s Impressive Start to Life at Liverpool
Szoboszlai has made an impressive start to life at Liverpool, with few new arrivals taking to the side as quickly as the £60 million signing. His first goal for the club was a stunner against Leicester, and his second was just as good. Klopp was full of praise for Szoboszlai’s skill and initiative, and it’s clear that he is already a fan favourite.
The Hungarian midfielder’s goal was set up by Wataru Endo, who showed great initiative in teeing up Szoboszlai. Klopp was quick to praise Endo for his role in the goal, but it is Szoboszlai who is taking the headlines.
Szoboszlai’s performance against Leicester is a sign of things to come, and it’s clear that he has all the tools to become one of Liverpool’s most important players this season. Klopp will be hoping that Szoboszlai can continue his impressive form and help the Reds to more victories in the coming weeks.
