Jurgen Klopp insists that Joe Gomez will play “a lot of games” for Liverpool following his performance against Watford.
Gomez started at right-back in the Saturday early kick-off, in place of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who had to settle for a place on the bench after recently recovering from a hamstring injury. Gomez provided the assist for Diogo Jota’s opening goal, and played a key role in helping Liverpool keep their 18th clean sheet of the campaign in the top flight.
It was just the 24-year-old's sixth Premier League appearance this season, and only his second start, having previously only featured for just 105 minutes before the clash against Watford. This lack of game time has led to tentative speculation over Gomez's future at Anfield.
