The entire Liverpool team was below their previous selves, but according to Doyle
one of the weakest was performed by the very man who wore the No. 8 shirt of the Anfield legend this season.
According to the author, Szoboszlai significantly contributed to the gentle submission of the Reds in the decisive opening stage of the derby.
Doyle’s analysis points out: the captain of the Hungarian national team played excellent football in the opening months of his Liverpool career, he was referred to as the proof of the year, but the unfortunate injury brought him to his knees. Szoboszlai was rarely as weightless this season as he was at Goodison Park, he did little in the pre-game, and was often invisible when Everton took the initiative.
Whatever the reason: Szoboszlai also contributed to Liverpool’s restrained performance in midfield – which is a real crime in derbies.
“Still only 23 years old, it was a terrible experience, Szoboszlai still has a lot to learn,” writes Doyle.
In addition to Szoboszlai, Curtis Jones also did not play the game of his life, and Alexis Mac Allister also looked frustrated in the midfield, but what is really worrying is Liverpool’s offensive game.
