I was first told about Joe at Sparrows lane from one of the other dads at a development game two years ago that he was the best young player at the club. The first time i saw him at senior level was against Gibralter where it took 5 minutes to concur as he was so comfortable on the ball and seems to glide over the ground. we are now spoilt for choice and can play joe at right back if Solly needs a rest or Wilson who is a decent right back, who is very good dove tailing with either Joe or Chris if he plays in front of them. Joe have played mainly centre back but the championship strikers could be more difficult for him at this stage of his career.
According to a web site called Football League World, Liverpool and Newcastle are interested in signing Joe Gomez by the end of today. The article goes on to say that Charlton are trying to tie him up to a long term deal. I am not naïve enough to know he will be with us for many years but I do hope he is with us for a few years. He is tailor made for Bob Peeters style of football, as everybody says he is going to be a top class player.

With all due respect, if those two teams are looking to sign him today I can't see him signing a longer contract with us!
let's hope he doesn't get dazzled by the big club lights where he rots in the reserves. Hopefully he will stay a season or two and develop into a world class player
The thing it, even if you forget the money he will earn you have to assume that he thinks he is more Shelvey than Bostock. The former has been involved with England and he is a regular in the Premier League now.
I think that the graduates of our Academy are better prepared than some other clubs. Even Jenkinson has played a fare few games at Arsenal and but for injury he would probably have played a number of times for West Ham this season. Maybe Joe is good enough, either way if he is offered serious money on a long deal with Liverpool then I think he should want to go. Newcastle - Pardew, not so much!
