I'm a bit squeamish when it comes to injuries so I didn't watch the replays - did it look like knee or ankle?

Is it just me or does Gomez get a higher proportion of these injuries playing fullback than CB? The big one in 2020 was with England in training, but this one and his Burnley one were both while playing RB.

It looked like the Southampton player fell on his ankle

Joe Gomez has had a scan on the ankle injury sustained versus Southampton. No serious damage which is a positive outcome. Liverpool are confident he will be available for the Champions League final if his recovery goes as planned.

At first looked like knee, second viewing he clearly rolls his ankle. Basically his leg/knee dont firmly plant but his foot takes all the weight and rolls under the pressure. As Joyce has confirmed didnt look like a bad roll though, just something you can do. Prolly swollen and sore for a week or so

Secondly i think you get put into higher intensity. last ditch situations as full back

Also your body does a lot more as a full back than CB so yea isnt shocking at all

Had to do a double take then. Joe Gomez, getting a little bit of luck following an injury? Some mistake here, surely?

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #5485 on:** May 18, 2022, 04:49:13 pm »

Great news, fingers crossed he's on the bench for the final.

Brilliant news. Might be needed to see out the final 10 mins against Madrid to win number 7

We are living in a timeline where Joe Gomez is lucky with injuries.

OMG

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

My sources* tell me that the club have opened talks with Big Joe Dave since the start of pre-season to extend his contract, and that he wants to stay.

Yes Joseph!

SamLad · « **Reply #5494 on:** July 7, 2022, 01:17:14 pm »

he is the most underrated and taken-for-granted member of the squad, by far.

get it signed, Joe - we need you!

Good to hear he wants to stay and fight for his place. If he's finally over his injury problems he's a real asset, pacey home-grown centre back who's more than comfortable on the ball.

PIPA23 · « **Reply #5498 on:** July 7, 2022, 02:57:07 pm »

only health issues can stop him from being our starting CB again...

he has all it takes to be a starter with Konate for years to come.

Samie · « **Reply #5499 on:** July 7, 2022, 03:30:41 pm »

Joe has been with us since 2015. This new contract takes him up to his testimonial.

Barefoot Doctor · « **Reply #5500 on:** July 7, 2022, 03:58:14 pm »

Now confirmed. Five-year deal to take him to 2027.

El Lobo · « **Reply #5501 on:** July 7, 2022, 04:02:01 pm »

Smart lad

Dim Glas · « **Reply #5502 on:** July 7, 2022, 04:02:32 pm »

It’s fantastic that he’s signed a new long term deal. There would be a fair few clubs interested if it was made clear he was available, but he has the strength of character to know he can make even more of a success of it here. And of course, what a place to be!

If Joe has an injury free pre-season there can be one heck of a battle for those spots next season

Virgil, Matip, Konate and Gomez is a ridiculously talented group of central defenders.

Samie · « **Reply #5503 on:** July 7, 2022, 04:04:28 pm »

If he stays the full 5 years then he will have been here 12 years.

How good! Delighted to have him stay with us, get that man a testimonial in a few years!

El Lobo · « **Reply #5508 on:** July 7, 2022, 04:14:45 pm »

I know people hate the 'contract renewal vs new signings' debate, but if we can get Naby and/or Bobby re-signed this summer that's a proper statement I think. Mo goes without saying is a really big renewal, a world class player at the peak of his power staying when he could have earned more elsewhere. But this is really big too. A top class young CB who could have got a move to another good club, and was 4th choice here last season, committing long term. Shows he's a smart, confident young man that he's not thrown his toys out of the pram like others might have.

lamonti · « **Reply #5509 on:** July 7, 2022, 04:15:06 pm »

Great choice. Will make huge contributions over the course of that contract. Why would you leave!

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #5510 on:** July 7, 2022, 04:16:48 pm »

I am as pleased about this as any of our new signings. Please just grant him an injury free season. 😀

Thought this was going to be announced a few weeks from now, nevermind today, great news though. Salah last week and now this.

I'm delighted with this. He's a fantastic player - and the best English centre back in the game.

He might want to add a few goals to his game but he has everything else. Killer pace, composure, positional acumen, aggression, and creativity on the ball. Youth is also on his side. Allez Joe.

CanuckYNWA · « **Reply #5518 on:** July 7, 2022, 05:05:13 pm »

Great news!!!

All of our defenders are tied down until ATLEAST 2025 now if not more

Gomez is our most versatile defender too, can play both sides of CB and both full back positions. Great asset to have even if can struggle with injuries, seemed to manage well last season with reduced minutes after recovering from the bad injury so hopefully hes in a good spot now and can crack on

Brilliant defender

Our CB depth is insane, easily the best in the world.

xbugawugax · « **Reply #5519 on:** July 7, 2022, 05:07:35 pm »

brilliant news

think we now have the best 4 cb in the league

vvd, matip, gomez and konate

better get a song going or one of them will leave
