Joe Gomez

[Lee909]

Yeah, there was something on the training video where Klopp says something to him and he looks shattered,saying yeah i needed that. 

 

I'd love to know what actually happened in that training session, you really wouldn't think you would do that much damage going down not under a bad challenge

Isn't there rumours it was under a challenge though, from Harry Kane

This, this and many times this. In the words of the immortal Kanye West; "if you ain't no punk, holla WE WANT PRENUP, WE WANT PRENUP".

[niallers]

Klopp came out and said that the inflammation report was erroneous to say the least. He's just being carefully managed. Happy days

Yeah there was initially and then quickly changed to he was on his own and just went down. Always sounded a bit fishy

[Wezza]

The follow up block on the penalty rebound was top quality defending. Good to have him back.

[VladimirIlyich]

I thought he was ok but needs games to get up to match speed. Konate looked far superior to me.

Agree. He was sloppy at times.

I think I was watching another match because I thought Gomez was sensational considering how long he's been back.  

I looked at him yesterday and thought he looked like a £100m CB. He glides over the turf, he's agile, he's strong, he takes command, and his passing is so impressive.

From the ridiculous to the sublime: we have the best set of centre backs in the world again now

I agree with this. Might be a tough ask keeping all our CBs happy though if they (admittedly improbably) avoid spending much time injured and Gomez is perhaps the one I’d be most concerned about in that regard.

I know, it's actually a slight problem giving them all the game time they need now. The domestic cups might take on a new importance for the management team this year. Already, it looks like we won't be shipping too many goals regardless of how our back four is constituted.

I thought he looked really good too, obviously it was only Norwich but he looked more like the Gomez of old plus that was a fantastic block on the saved pen

Not even in the squad today. Seems pretty ominous now that he will be moved on in the summer.

He is great him. 

 

There's not many CBs out there who can do a stint as an effective RB or RWB. 

 

Militao at Madrid springs to mind, I remember he was a handful when we played Porto.  Any others you can think of?

Babbel back in the day, Kounde and Azpilicueta can play CB and out wide. Alaba and Lucas Hernandez similar but from the opposite side, and whilst we’re there Maldini was world class at both LB and CB.

Jamie Carragher 

[an tha]

He's not naturally gifted when it comes to the attacking side of being a full back in this side - but fair do's to him today, ball in for goal was top drawer and he put another in in 2nd half which should have been knocked in too.

[A_S]

I'd be disappointed if he didn't text Trent after the game saying how piss easy it is to play in his position while racking up assists and that he can stay on the bench a bit longer.

Nice, ok. 

But, that's hallowed ground, those players cost £50m, or should do. 

Gomez is silk, I can't speak highly enough of him, should be England's first choice CB.

Point taken, he did play there, though I rate Gomez higher than prime Carra.  And imagine Carra playing RB in this team...

Yeah, older Carra probably struggles with the high line. Younger Carra would be okay, though. 

 

Paulo Maldini

[VladimirIlyich]

Won me £37.50 off a fiver free bet by getting booked. Thanks Joe.

[manwiththestick]

Given a good run of games he's a fine player. England's best centre back.
