LIVERPOOL FC HAVE A SZOBOSZLAI PROBLEM! Iraola Faces Big Decision

Media Matters with Dave Davis and David Lynch | Liverpool Win Ugly, Szoboszlai Concerns and Alisson's Brilliance

Part 1.

Dave Davis and David Lynch return for another edition of Media Matters on Anfield Index, analysing Liverpool's 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace and the growing tactical questions facing Andoni Iraola.

Liverpool head into the international break in the Premier League's top four after extending their impressive away winning run. But while the results continue to improve, are the performances convincing enough?

The discussion begins with Liverpool's ability to grind out victories in an increasingly competitive Premier League, before turning to Alisson Becker's outstanding performance at Selhurst Park. With six saves and several crucial interventions, the Brazilian once again demonstrated his importance to the Reds.

However, Liverpool's midfield balance remains a significant concern.

Despite Dominik Szoboszlai registering an assist and Alexis Mac Allister scoring, questions persist over whether the Hungarian is suited to playing in Iraola's double pivot. Could Trey Nyoni and Mac Allister provide the stability Liverpool desperately need?

Dave and Lewis also assess Liverpool's attacking improvements, Florian Wirtz's growing influence and the importance of finding results even when performances fall short of expectations.

Are Liverpool developing into a more resilient side under Iraola, or are their midfield weaknesses being masked by individual brilliance?
