Graeme Souness names the Liverpool player who had his worst game ever v Manchester United
Lee Connor
Mon 18 December 2023 18:45, UK
Graeme Souness has said that Liverpool’s midfield didn’t turn up against Manchester United and believes Dominik Szoboszlai was as guilty as anyone.
The Hungarian midfielder has been in superb form since signing in the summer but like everyone else in Red yesterday, looked a bit off the boil.
Szoboszlai has won plenty of praise for his performances up to now. The £60m man has made a difference to Liverpool and he’s rightly been lauded.
However, former Liverpool great Souness believes Szoboszlai was poor against United, as he suggested the Reds’ midfielders weren’t at it.
Souness says Dominik Szoboszlai was so poor v Manchester United
Speaking about the game on TalkSPORT, Souness was critical of the Hungarian and the rest of the Liverpool midfield players.
“I don’t think it tells us much other than the attacking players for Liverpool weren’t on it. The amount of overhit passes, especially in the first half. Szoboszlai had his worst game in a Liverpool shirt. The midfield just didn’t have the key to the door to create enough big chances,” Souness said.

Szoboszlai will be disappointed
Liverpool probably did enough to win the game really but Souness is right, they didn’t create too many clear openings.

Szoboszlai was among a cluster of players really who just looked a bit off it. But he’s been so good so far that any drop off is always going to be noticeable.
The Hungarian will come back flying at some point and there’ll be other games for him to really exert his influence on things.
Right now, Liverpool just need to draw a line under this one and move on. A 0-0 draw with your biggest rivals is not the end of the world.
£120k-a-week Szoboszlai will have his day again and more than likely, he’ll end up being key to any success this season.

Arsenal are gearing up for a massive game against Liverpool in the Premier League at the weekend – it could have major ramifications regarding the title race, as the two clubs are currently in first and second place in the table, respectively.
Despite this, the Reds are likely to face a setback before the game begins. Ryan Gravenberch was taken off the field with an injury during Liverpool’s 0-0 home draw against Manchester United last Sunday – now, his availability for the game against Arsenal hangs in the balance.

On top of this, Liverpool also have an extra game to play, as they will take on West Ham United in the quarter-finals of the League Cup on Wednesday, December 20. Arsenal are not without their own injury woes, however.
As things stand, the Gunners are expected to be without Jurrien Timber, Mohamed Elneny, Fabio Vieira, Jorginho, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Thomas Partey ahead of their clash with Liverpool on Saturday evening. Which team will head home feeling full of Christmas cheer?
What has been said regarding Ryan Gravenberch’s availability?
On whether Gravenberch will be available for Liverpool’s game against Arsenal at the weekend, Reds manager Jurgen Klopp said in a recent press conference: “We will see. They told me directly after the game it got worse during the game, so that means it was not ‘bam’. He felt a little bit and didn’t show immediately. We hoped it would go by, [but] it didn’t. There was this really intense sprint with the ball which ended on the 18-yard line with a collision.
“I hope it is not that serious but we have in the next 10 days, three more games, so I don’t know if he will be part of them or one of them. We will see, we have to make a scan.”

Liverpool were already without Alexis Mac Allister, Joel Matip, Thiago, Andy Robertson, Diogo Jota and Stefan Bajcetic against United and it is unclear if any of those players will be available against the Gunners.

Perhaps it was because Anfield was half empty and the cameras had been switched off that Manchester United supporters suddenly found their voice.
However, what they decided to sing was nothing short of disgraceful, but at the same time, unfortunately, not surprising.
‘Always the victims’ was the song some so-called United supporters decided to belt out as Liverpool fans headed for the exits after the goalless draw. It is a direct and callous jibe about a disaster.
But Liverpool supporters have long been targeted for tragedy-chanting. Fans have taunted Reds supporters by singing ‘Always the victims’ – which is regarded as a reference to the 1989 Hillsborough disaster.

Reds fans should not still be carrying these horrible stereotypes and being reminded of that terrible day in their history over and over again, but unfortunately they are.
But ‘Always the victims’ isn’t the only song that Liverpool supporters are often forced to endure. We also have reached that time of year when the chants of ‘Feed the Scousers’ resurface.
The ‘Feed the Scousers’ song has been around since 1984. The juxtaposition is as brainless as it is vile.
Sunday was one of those moments when ‘modern’ football fans trotted out the same old shameful songs in the name of ‘banter’. The songs, however, are far from funny.
The chants from United supporters were utterly shameless. They were also depressingly inaccurate.
And to make matters worse, they came on an afternoon when the atmosphere inside Anfield was called into question.
Granted before the action got underway, Liverpool had to release a statement after an incident in which a bottle was hurled at the United team coach as it arrived at Anfield. But in the statement the club confirmed that anyone found guilty could be handed a life ban from attending matches at Anfield.
It was the type of swift action that should be applauded. The incident was also ultimately the mindless act of one idiot.
Speaking during commentary on Sky Sports, former United defender Gary Neville claimed that the atmosphere during the draw was the worst he had experienced at Anfield.

“I have to say, this is by far the worst atmosphere I’ve ever seen at Anfield for a Manchester United game,” he remarked. “It’s really, really quiet so far, other than the first five minutes where they were up for it.”
Now, while Neville might be right, the atmosphere inside Anfield on Sunday might not have been at its best, and perhaps that is because some Reds supporters just turned up expecting a routine win given the form of the two clubs heading into the game.
But even so, with all the talk about the atmosphere, perhaps it would be better if the focus of the football world was on the appalling chants from United supporters.
The chants are an utterly shameful act. Words carry meaning and consequences, and those involved need to be called out, as it is the only way this sad state of affairs is going to end.
