Szoboszlai: “I Try To Drag Them With Me, Take Them With Me”

The midfielder gave his assessment of the match against Manchester United.

Dominik Szoboszlai is the kind of player who refuses to let a match slip away without a fight. His latest strike—a goal that lifted the spirits of every Liverpool fan at Old Trafford—was a reminder of the quality he brings to the pitch. It sparked a comeback that, sadly, fell just short, as Manchester United held on to claim a double over the Reds for the first time in a decade.

"Not good, as we go home with zero points," Szoboszlai admitted to the club website after the final whistle. "After the first half, we shouldn't be happy at all. We should take from this game only the beginning of the second half—because that's when we showed properly who we are."

The Hungarian midfielder was brutally honest about the team's shortcomings. "Before the game, you speak about set-pieces—don't concede. I don't know when the first goal happened, but you concede from a set-piece. Also, you talk about counter-attacks, and then the second goal happens from a counter-attack. We have to be more focused. We have to take more care of the details. In the end, hopefully, the luck is going to stay on our side."

While Liverpool's fightback was fueled by United's errors, it was their own mistakes that ultimately proved costly. Yet, Szoboszlai's determination to lead by example has been one of the bright spots in an otherwise difficult season. Quietly, he's been putting together a stellar campaign—driving the team forward, demanding more, and refusing to let heads drop.

"You have to ask the other ones," he said humbly when asked about his leadership. "I try to do my best. I try to drag them with me, take them with me, and hopefully set an example day by day, game by game. That's what I want to do, and that's going to be my plan for the last three games as well. We have a lot of players who can set an example. I try to be one of them. If it works, I'm happy."

With just three matches left in what has been a trying season, attention is already turning toward what comes next. As senior figures prepare to move on, players like Szoboszlai are stepping up—not just with goals, but with the kind of attitude that builds a winning culture. For fans, seeing that fire on the pitch is a glimpse of what's possible when the new season kicks off.
