It’s all abaht yoof, innit.

Klopp’s German rule of longest serving club player being a captain shouldn’t apply here

Maybe he should be captain on Europa league nights. :roll_eyes:

That is , if he’s fit enough

Hasn’t he already worn the armband a couple of times?

Joe Gomez gets way too much disrespect for my liking. He’s had very bad luck with injuries, but has still managed to be a part of the club during its most recent golden age. He’s worked very hard to come back from injury and has been a useful and versatile squad member.

Probably making more of this than I need to but I noticed that on the “Inside” footage from the Newcastle game, as Nunez is celebrating the equalizer both Quansah and Gomez come over to celebrate but Gomez is talking to Quansah - clearly about shape and how they are working together at the back. For someone I’ve criticised for being too much inside his own shell I was glad to see that.
