Szoboszlai has a very interesting profile, he can be quite sloppy on the ball and doesn't retain possession that well in tight areas. However, he is very direct with and without the ball with quality ball striking technique. The thing with being direct is not many players are..
You'll have players with excellent ball control, great dribbling skills, but they aren't moving towards the direction of goal. Instead they are mainly focused on ball retention, then you have players with lesser qualities in this area but they are always moving towards goal..
This is with and without the ball. A good way of describing this is comparing how direct Ramsey is to Ceballos, and Son to Bernardo. Szoboszlai has that quality about him. Buendia is a sure thing, but if Szoboszlai is efficient at the highest level his ceiling would be higher.
