  "account": "Dominik Szoboszlai, Liverpool's midfielder, has downplayed a recent row involving him, Curtis Jones, and Kostas Tsimikas. The dispute arose after a video surfaced showing the trio arguing over the captain's armband during a pre-season match against Wrexham. Szoboszlai clarified that the argument was not between the three of them, but rather a discussion on the pitch. He stated, \"We just discussed something on the pitch. Which actually, after, you guys [the media] make it very big.\" Szoboszlai added that there was no anger among the players and that the situation is now resolved. The captain, who leads the team during the United States tour and Joe Gomez's absence, praised his teammates and expressed excitement for the upcoming Premier League season.",
