Dominik Szoboszlai has sent a message to Liverpool fans who don't believe in the club's ability to overcome a two-goal deficit against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions LeagueLiverpool will need midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai to be at his best if they are to progress in the Champions League against PSG(Image: Richard Sellers/Sportsphoto/Allstar via Getty Images)Dominik Szoboszlai has little patience for any Liverpool supporters who doubt the possibility of a Champions League turnaround against Paris Saint-Germain.The Reds face PSG on Tuesday evening at Anfield, following a 2-0 defeat in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final in Paris. While Luis Enrique's team scored only twice, they squandered multiple opportunities to put the tie to bed.However, while the two-goal advantage does mean the defending European champions enter the second leg as heavy favorites to advance to the semi-finals, where they would face one of Bayern Munich or Real Madrid, Szoboszlai remains far from convinced that the tie is over.READ MORE: Liverpool sends scouts to RB Leipzig to look at Andy Robertson replacementREAD MORE: Liverpool wants 'three to four' big summer transfers as Arne Slot given hopeWhen asked by broadcaster Amazon Prime on whether a Reds comeback is possible, the Liverpool midfielder replied: "I hope so, listen, I'm gonna go all in, trust me.
I don't want to be sat here [doing the interview], I want it to be 8 p.m. and to go for it."Even though we played two days ago, I can go, no matter what...It's going to be a special night, I can feel it. If you don't believe, stay at home."Liverpool's performances have deteriorated considerably since clinching the Premier League title last season, with the Reds now battling to secure Champions League qualification for next campaign while simultaneously fighting to remain in this season's competition.Dominik Szoboszlai wants Liverpool fans to believe they can beat PSG on Tuesday at Anfield(Image: Jan Kruger, Getty Images)Szoboszlai also acknowledged that the squad has faced plenty of challenges this season, particularly concerning talisman Mohamed Salah, who will depart Anfield at the end of the 2025/26 campaign.With Salah's form having dropped off this season, there had been hope that the trio of Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, and Alexander Isak, who broke his leg back in December and has only just returned to the Reds' matchday squad, would be able to shoulder the burden of Liverpool's attacking output.And while the trio has struggled at times this season, Szoboszlai is backing them to all find their feet in due course, reports the Liverpool Echo.Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike were signed last summer by Liverpool(Image: Getty Images)"I can mention Mo, last season he won the Premier League for us, with his numbers," Szoboszlai continued when quizzed about Liverpool's current form."Maybe he's not at this level right now, which he knows.
Maybe people were expecting more from the (new) guys who came in.He added, "But to come to the Premier League is not that easy. I can't remember a player who came to the Premier League directly and didn't show any setbacks."We need to give them time, to give them confidence, and trust me, if they have time and confidence, they will be needed in the future of Liverpool."
