Leicester City v Liverpool FC - Premier League
Joe Gomez was impressive in Liverpool's outing at King Power Stadium

England's youngster Joe Gomez is making the most of the chances he is getting. This time with a perfect outing at King Power Stadium. The injury to Dejan Lovern allowed Klopp to play the young defender in every game this season, and he impressed his manager with some brilliant performances.

Joe was excellent in dealing with the pace of Leicester's forwards, especially Demarai Gray. He also made his physical presence felt in the opposition's box during setpieces and made some fine tackles and interceptions. The best came in the second half when Gomez denied James Maddison.

The man of the match performance in a team that comprises Mane and Salah is a great achievement and this guy deserves the centre back position for Liverpool at the moment. However, it remains to be seen how he performs against big teams.
