The Reds have bounced back from a disappointing 2022-23 campaign in which they finished fifth in the league. Jurgen Klopp’s men have won nine games across competitions, sitting fourth in the league, top of E in the UEFA Europa League. They are also in the last 16 of the Carabao Cup, facing Bournemouth on November 1.
Szoboszlai has played a key role in Liverpool’s superb start to the season. The Hungarian arrived from RB Leipzig in the summer for £60 million and he’s bagged two goals in 12 games across competitions.The 23-year-old was asked what the Merseysider’s expectations for this campaign are. He gave a confident response, telling BBC Match of the Day “Everything. Simple. Premier League, FA Cup, Europa League, Carabao Cup. Why not? You have to think in this way. If you think ‘we should be in second place’ — who cares about second place?” Klopp’s men were close to winning the quadruple in the 2021-22 season, winning the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.However, the Reds finished second in the league, one point behind City. They also suffered a 1-0 defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
Szoboszlai is one of many new faces at Anfield following an overhaul of Klopp’s midfield in the summer. He’s proving to be a hit on Merseyside and certainly has the confidence befitting a Liverpool star.
Liverpool last won the Premier League in the 2019-20 campaign, but have since struggled to end Manchester City’s stranglehold over English football.
