When he played in Germany there were some similarities to how he played and how Gerrard played and especially when Szobo was played in a RM or RAM role.
This season though he is very much being used in a Henderson-esque role where his work rate and willingness to do the water carrier role is seeing him more or less be a shield for the right flank.
Hell of a lot of attacks down our right side are either sniffed out by Szobo or put under enough pressure by his chasing back that the other them often has to reset their attacking move.
Have a feeling that MacAllister is putting up similar underlying defensive numbers too, maybe even better than Szobo.

Equally underrated by the masses too.
