Dominik Szoboszlai expresses his contentment of playing with Mac Allister and Gravenberch
Liverpool’s Dominik Szoboszlai “loves” playing alongside Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch in Arne Slot’s new-look midfield.
Szoboszlai had an up and down first season at Liverpool following a big-money switch from RB Leipzig.
The Hungary international has started eight of Liverpool’s nine matches this season, including Wednesday’s 2-0 win over Bologna in the Champions League.
Szoboszlai has formed a strong midfield trio alongside Mac Allister and Gravenberch, and he is revelling excelling in the unit.
He told Liverpool’s official website: “I love to play with them. I said it before, a lot of qualities what these two have – but the whole team [as well].
“The midfield is not enough. Of course it’s an important role but we need everybody, we need the bench as well, we need the whole squad because there’s going to be times where it’s going to be hard and I think there are still 60 games to come!”
Slot has been shortlisted for the Premier League’s Manager of the Month award in September.
Liverpool sit top of the standings with 15 points, having won all but one of their league matches under Slot, losing 1-0 to Nottingham Forest in September.
“If you take the Nottingham Forest game away then it’s a perfect start,” added Szoboszlai.
“We are top of the league and we have to continue like this.”
The Reds take on Crystal Palace in Saturday’s early kick-off in the Premier League.
Slot is looking to become just the fourth manager in Premier League history to win each of his first four away games in the competition after Felipe Scolari (first eight), John Gregory (five) and Bobby Gould (four).
