Dominik Szoboszlai

Key strength: Vision and passing

Creative playmaker

In a season where Liverpool have lost their way, Dominik Szoboszlai remains their unwavering compass. The Reds sit fourth in the Premier League but are spiraling through a crisis of form—winless in five matches with only a solitary point salvaged from their last fifteen available. Yet amid mounting pressure, Szoboszlai burns with the intensity of his iconic number 8 shirt, once worn by Anfield royalty. The Hungarian virtuoso has been virtually ever-present, amassing 3,488 minutes across 39 appearances while orchestrating Liverpool's attack with surgical precision. His return of 11 goals and 7 assists from attacking midfield only hints at his true influence—it's his 80-rated passing vision that unlocks stubborn defenses and threads balls to forwards. But Szoboszlai is no luxury player: his 70 defending and 73 physicality ratings reveal a midfielder willing to press, tackle, and cover every blade of grass. At just 25 years old and valued at €100 million, he has become the tactical fulcrum—the one constant in an increasingly uncertain campaign. As Liverpool fight to salvage their season, their Hungarian heartbeat continues to beat loudest.
