When Enzo Maresca brings his side onto the Anfield turf this Sunday, all eyes will naturally fall on Erling Haaland as City’s main threat but for Szoboszlai, this fixture carries a level of personal history, friendship, and underlying point-to-prove intensity that very few others can match.Every time these two sides collide, something extraordinary seems to happen around our Hungarian midfielder. Szoboszlai sprinted back, tussled back and forth with his close friend, and watched as the ball slowly crossed over the line.

The goal was wiped out, a free-kick awarded, and Szoboszlai was shown a straight red card.Speaking to Viaplay ahead of Sunday's clash, Haaland looked back on that wild tangle with his former RB Salzburg teammate with a grin, revealing the cheeky banter exchanged between the pair afterwards:"He should not have pulled me down, he should just let me go and score. I told him just give me the goal.

I also told him I was faster than him because you could see that in the game as well. Rather than roaming across the pitch, Szoboszlai who was rightly handed the vice-captaincy behind Virgil van Dijk over the summer is primarily competing for one of the two double-pivot engine room roles behind Florian Wirtz.It shows what it takes to wear the shirt the total commitment, the resilience after a setback, and the drive to go toe-to-toe with the very best.There would be no better time for Liverpool midfielder to settle an old score, put his mate back in his place, and deliver another masterclass on the red side of Merseyside.Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
