Craig Burley has lauded Dominik Szoboszlai after the Liverpool midfielder again stole the show for the Reds last night.

Speaking on ESPN, the pundit waxed lyrical about the 22-year-old playmaker, who scored a screamer against Leicester City to set Liverpool on their way for a 3-1 win.

The Reds booked their place in the last-16 of the League Cup, with Szoboszlai’s strike extending Liverpool’s unbeaten run to 19 games in all competitions.

Indeed, the summer signing from RB Leipzig has been a revelation, and Burley was impressed with what he saw from Szoboszlai last night.

The pundit said: “He is a Rolls-Royce of a midfielder. He’s the captain of Hungary. He’s got a great touch, got good physicality, good range of passing, can score a goal.”

Burley added: “He’s been a great signing for them and he gives them a little bit of everything in the middle of the park. But that goal was special. He can strike a ball, that lad.”

Szoboszlai has been worth his weight in gold since signing for Liverpool this summer, and the midfielder is proving every week that he is easily worth the £60m the Reds paid for him.

The 22-year-old is easily one of the best players in the current Liverpool squad and is showing a lot of signs of being the most exciting signing the club have made in some time.

And for Szoboszlai, the midfielder is living the dream with the Premier League giants, with the youngster only getting better with each passing game for Jurgen Klopp’s side.
