Some Liverpool fans on Twitter have been drooling over Reds defender Joe Gomez.
This comes after Liverpool fan Twitter account @SamuelLFC shared a post on their page claiming that Gomez is one of the top three centre-backs in the Premier League, England’s best defender and in the top 10 list of defenders in the world.
This post then led to a lot of Liverpool fans replying to the post with their thoughts on the Englishman.
Here’s a sample of Liverpool fans discussing Gomez:
Unpopular opinion: Joe Gomez is easily top 3 best CB in the PL, England’s best defender and top 10 defenders itw.

Underrated massively by rivals. Criminal to think Maguire is better than him.

Never lost a PL game next to Virgil. Don’t think it’s even unpopular tbh. Nobody is close other than Virgil and Laporte

Is Joe Gomez England's best defender?
Yes
No
The 22-year-old, who is currently valued at £30.15 million according to Transfermarkt, has made 34 appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s team across all competitions (per Transfermarkt). Now that this Liverpool fan page has shared its praise for Gomez and how they compare the defender to other players in world football, this has opened the door for lots of other Liverpool fans to share their thoughts on the player.
Have you seen his clean sheet stats from his PL starts as a CB? literally different levels

What do we think?
There’s no denying that these Liverpool fans are full of admiration for Gomez. Their hopes for the defender now will be that he will stay at Anfield for a long time.
