Trey Nyoni had been threatening to take his place in the Reds XI before the pause in play, but after Szoboszlai disrespected the club who pay his wages and played with a known injury, Iraola should have all the reason he needs to drop the more senior player and keep Nyoni in the team. Szoboszlai confirms he played with an injury Part of the reason Szoboszlai’s season has been so stop-start so far has been because of Rossi’s refusal to give him a rest with the national team.

The good news is that there are only two national team fixtures this time around, but Szoboszlai has already shown that he is determined to play in both. Szoboszlai is letting Iraola down Although Nyoni is a better option than Szoboszlai right now, that does not mean that the Hungarian is not a vitally important player to Liverpool.

He may see it as noble that he shows up for his national team and battles on through pain, but it is reckless, unnecessary and disrespectful to both Liverpool and Iraola, who made it clear that Szoboszlai’s involvement in the international break was touch and go. As an experienced manager, Rossi should know better, but if Szoboszlai says he is ready to play, then he is going to take that at face value.
