  • Watching Joe last night made me full of mixed emotions: so proud and really pleased for him but really sad that our youth set up does not get the credit it deserves.
    Well done Joe and let's hope we can keep more of the youth.

    My office in the city is full of fake London Liverpool fans who never attend a game and just talk football 24/7. They are sat there this morning laughing and saying they nicked Gomez for £3.5 Million from little old Charlton.

    There is one word that comes to mind........

    The word "coming to mind" is no good. Can I suggest you actually use it?

    remind them that they will whinge and whinge when he leaves for a "big" club, slag him off for being "disloyal" while forgetting they nicked him off someone else.

    Meanwhile we're laughing all the way to the bank as we get £250k for every appearance, £1m for a cap and 50% of the sell on - we don't but they won't know that, just tell them Henry Irving said so and they will believe you : - )

    I paid my £10 a month so Liverpool can have a decent left back and Swansea can have a decent midfielder.

    Haven't read the whole thread, it's probably already been confirmed but I know that the £3.5m figure banded about simply wasn't true.

    He's keeping Alberto Moreno out the side who Liverpool paid £12m for last summer.

    There are players in the Championship who can hack it in the Premiership if given the chance, although have to agree with people that they are sometimes overpriced, i.e £9m Andre Gray.

    It shouldn't do, but the whole £3.5m thing really bugs me. It's so widely reported now that people are just taking as gospel.

    We know we got way more than that but the wider football world, who get all their football info from Sky and the like, think little old Charlton got taken to the cleaners.

    Another young star off the Liverpool production line.

    I hope we are all suitably grateful that a massive club like Liverpool loaned him to us for a season.

    Let the wider football community think that. Doesn't matter what they think. We have a great academy turning out genuine footballing talent on a fairly regular basis. We are a selling club but we are no longer selling at bargain prices and hopefully one day it will be funding a return to the top table of football.

    This is what gets me, he plays 3 games in the Premiership and he's in the Under 21's.

    Probably wouldn't be considered if still with us but he's improved so much in the 3/4 months at Liverpool, well done Brendan!!!!

    That's the point I was going to make. Would he of been selected if he'd had started our opening 4 games? Possibly but the exposure of the Prem has helped. Well done Joe!
  • Can someone please just find out what the actual figure was!!!

    That's great news - well done Joe.

    A full England cap will follow very shortly.

    I think the point would be that in the last three games he's faced Premier League opposition and not looked at all out of place.

    Selecting him whilst he was still here, would have been classed as an uproven risk.

    Olly said it was more on his own twitter but nothing from any club source

    I don't feel the same emotional attachment to Joe Gomez as everyone else seems to, I mean good luck to him and stuff but he doesn't play for us anymore and surely doesn't care about our club, and even when he did play for us, he was probably only playing at 6/6.5 ratings

    Really? Just how sour are those grapes?

    Talk about re-writing history.

    Olly is most people's source and he works at the club. Surely that is a credible source?

    People won't be happy until the club wheels out an accountant with the clubs agreement with Liverpool carved in a stone monument.

    Make me.

    That £10 created a player that may have kept the club afloat when we sold Shelvey

    That is very true

    However Callum Chambers had been playing for Soton in the Prem but was called up as soon as he went to Arsenal.
  • Gomez has been unbelievable so far for Liverpool and rewarded with an England U21 call-up.
