Liverpool legend John Barnes has compared summer signing Dominik Szoboszlai to the iconic former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard. Barnes praised Szoboszlai's versatility and impact in Liverpool's midfield, stating that he reminds him of Gerrard in his ability to defend and attack effectively. The Hungarian midfielder has impressed in his 17 appearances for Liverpool this season, contributing two goals and two assists in 1,241 minutes of play.

Barnes also discussed Liverpool's overall improvement this season, crediting the team's midfield signings, including Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister, as a "massive upgrade" compared to last season. Simon Jordan, former Crystal Palace chairman, echoed this sentiment, stating that Liverpool's new midfielders have made the team more exciting to watch than Manchester City.

Liverpool currently sits second in the Premier League, just one point behind reigning champions Manchester City. Their strong performances so far, coupled with the impact of Szoboszlai and other midfield signings, have led to predictions that Liverpool will be able to challenge City for the title this season.

Overall, the comparison to Steven Gerrard and the positive impact of Liverpool's summer signings bode well for the team's prospects this season.

The Chicago Bears will be without three key players when they take on the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football. Starting cornerback Tyrique Stevenson, running back D'Onta Foreman, and swing tackle Larry Borom have all been ruled out for the game. Stevenson suffered an ankle injury that limited his practice participation, while Foreman has been dealing with an ankle issue for several weeks. Borom was not expected to play due to illness.

The absence of Stevenson means rookie Terell Smith will likely start opposite Jaylon Johnson. There may also be a rotation involving Jaylon Jones at outside corner. In Foreman's absence, Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson will be responsible for the running back duties. Borom's absence may prompt the Bears to elevate Aviante Collins from the practice squad to serve as a backup tackle.

The Vikings, meanwhile, have listed defensive lineman Khyiris Tonga, corner Akayleb Evans, and wide receiver Justin Jefferson as questionable for the game. Jefferson, in particular, is a crucial player for the Vikings, and his presence could greatly impact the outcome.
