Topic: European and World Champion and all round Big Man Joseph Dave Gomez

[Syntexity]

Glad he won that one because he was losing headers all night long before that!

He won plenty of headers though. All long balls was to his side and he only lost a few of them after that lump Wood came on, and then he still won some.

Good performance from Joe. Hope he continues this way, we need that.

[M4tt]

He's only 25! Still got so many years at the top which is a great sign

[jillcwhomever]

Back to his good old self now....

He just needs rhythm and games which is something he's not had for a while. But it's great to see him motoring around again.

Done nothing to merit being left out so should keep being selected for me. Although we do miss Matip's forays into the opposition half in an attacking sense.

[Ciara (with a capital "C")]

I am delighted to see him back playing regularly - he has been incredibly patient. He could walk into most other sides in the League - but has stayed, rehabbed and been patient. He is looking sharp too.

I really think we may need him to do some work at RB once Matip is ready to come back in.

[Bread]

Thought he was great last night. Would be surprised if Matip or Konate waltz back into the side if Gomez keeps up this form.

[disgraced cake]

Nice start to the season for our Joe. Good last night, a simple run out against a poor Bournemouth side and even though we were poor at United I thought he was probably our best defender on the night. If he can get the luck Matip had last season and remain injury free it'd be some blessing. I think what Gomez has really been after is a run of games in the league, the last two seasons must have killed him as he's barely featured due to injury. He's in his best years now though, and I'm begging he can just remain available.

Matip will be back as soon as he is fully fit, we had trouble last night going forward and Newcastle seemed to pen us in, Matip bringing the ball into midfield gives us more options and I actually think a fit Matip is as good as any Liverpool centre-half going back to Yeats.
He is also better at corners, glad Gomez is getting there but I still think he is down the pecking order when they are all fit..

Joseph Dave Gomez has never scored a goal in his professional career.  He has played over 100 times for us and I believe 20 odd times for Charlton. 

yeah but they used to say the same about Alisson.

good shout.  Trent will be crawling soon if he doesn't get a break of some sort.  I'd like to see him (Trent) used as an 80th-minute sub for a few games while Joe or Millie start.

[kloppismydad]

Outstanding so far today!

[disgraced cake]

Nearly made a huge mistake when they hit the post but otherwise very good. hope we can get Matip in for the week to give Joe a rest ahead of Wolves.

[Avens]

Outstanding so far today!

He's great and I love him, but I do worry that he's hanging on to the ball for a little too long sometimes, to the point that he gets it knicked off him semi-regularly - he seems to be really good at winning it back when he loses it under those circumstances, I just wish he'd cut that out a touch!

[Studgotelli]

Really really good game minus a few moments

[didi shamone]

You can really see his match sharpness returning. I'd like to see him get a few games at right back, with Trent being used as an impact sub until his form returns. Joes massive pace is something we really need.

He's not been helped by a lacklustre Trent and Fabinho.

Great to see him performing like this again.

He will be fine with a few more games, people forget how long he's been out of actually playing. Once he is up to playing inside rhythm that aspect will improve, though he's not helped by the lack of movement in midfield. The whole team needs to improve that.

[SouthDerryLaggo]

Shocker of a half. Not that anyone has been very good

[Samie]

Shocking first half for Joe. 

[naYoRHa2b]

Fourth choice for a reason y'know

[Persephone]

Shocker of a half. Not that anyone has been very good

Its gotten worse. Reminds me of the Villa game. This thread is not going to be pretty, run Joe Gomez.

[CalgarianRed]

Completely out of his depth

[masher]

I am a big fan of Gomez but Christ what a shocking performance, amateur mistakes.

[ScubaSteve]

Fourth choice for a reason y'know

Fifth choice behind Phillips IMO

[Simplexity]

Should have conceded about 4 goals this half. Lucky he only conceded one.

[MD1990]

one of the worst half's from a Liverpool player  have seen.

[Wabaloolah]

Shocker of a half. Not that anyone has been very good

the issues at the back though has caused it, all goals could and should have been stopped

[Dim Glas]

There’s a reason why Gomez is the 4th choice central defender at this club.

Hopefully Matip is ready to go from the next game on.

[6BigCups]

One of the worst individual performances in recent times

[David Struhme]

Not his best game

[Rahul21]

Not sure why we are playing him in his fourth game in a row after such a long injury lay off - and with Matip now fit.

[StL-Dono]

Not a fan of his in general, but f'ing hate being proven right....     Shockingly bad.

[Enders]

Not had the best of games, let's just leave it there

[Saus76]

Wow Joe. Words fail me.

[I've been a good boy]

Is he sleep walking out there?

[lgvkarlos]

I am a big fan of Gomez but Christ what a shocking performance, amateur mistakes.

Playing behind a player who litterly looks like he doesn't give a shit.

[MonsLibpool]

I can forgive his mistakes. That can happen.

[Mister Flip Flop]

The most embarrassing 45 minutes defensive performance ive ever seen in a red shirt.

[LallanaInPyjamas]

He's soft as fuck.

Still think he can do a job for us as a more defensive RB option but not sure he should ever play at CB for us again in all honesty. We always look so much more gettable at with him there. Would sooner play Fabinho in that position.
