Joe Gomez really needs to step up this season after coming back from an ACL injury which kept him out for 15 months. The players in defense are bound to get more chances given how shaky Liverpool's back 4 is.
Nathaniel Clyne's injury has ruled him out for the starting few games which leaves Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez to fight for the right back spot. Joe Gomez had a fairytale start to his Liverpool career until he got injured.
Jurgen Klopp ruled out the loan approaches from a few clubs for Joe Gomez which only goes on to show how much confidence the manager has in the player. The player who is also known as 'Big Joe' has a big season ahead of him, and given the talent that he has, it will be fitting to see if this proves to be his breakthrough season.
