Dominik Szoboszlai has impressed Emile Heskey in the first few weeks of the season, with the former Reds striker comparing the Hungarian to N'Golo Kante and "peak" Jordan Henderson.
The 22-year-old hasn't missed a minute of Premier League football, scoring his first goal in the win over Aston Villa

"He looks comfortable,"
"I think that's one of the things, especially with a new signing, if you can get them feeling as comfortable as possible as quickly as you can, that's what you're going to get.
"He looks comfortable on the ball, he's very energetic, he can do box-to-box, and that's the energy you need. We haven't seen that probably since Jordan Henderson when he was really at his peak.
"Obviously with age you change the style of your play, but Jordan was very much energy, box-to-box, closing someone down here, closing someone down there, you look like you've got three players.
"Kind of Kante-esque, you look like you're got two or three midfielders and it's just him, and this is the sort of player you need."
"It was so important how Curt [Jones] and Dom closed the spaces. What a goal, I saw it from behind, the cleanest striker I saw for a long time
