When he's injured?? Gomez is English so it doesn't matter, we're full with our foreign contingent though

I wouldn't say he's injury prone, he's been unlucky that the injuries he has had has tended to be bad ones.

Ok, you simply stated 1 in 1 out, I wasn’t aware of your quota, so you need to offload a Johnny if you bring 1 in.

Still, unlucky or not, some players, however good their potential can be held back by injuries, and Gomez seems to fit that Bill, so, English or not, it would seem that the injuries he’s had, according to the news, classes him as being ‘prone’!

Yet more proof international football should be scrapped ATM

Global pandamic yeah cool let all our players meet up and mix with others

Champs league tiny bit different as it's the same team bubble in theory

But you litterally are mixing players from all over the world ...

Football is continuing because its worth so much money first and foremost. Not for the greater good.

Fa's earn how much from intl games and major comps? They're not gonna give that up if they can help it.

Gomez has been unlucky - been injured twice now on international duty , most of his injuries are broken bones with the ankle being broken a number of times due to collisions - same with his ACL

Doesn't look good. We're in a predicament whereby if we by another foreign CB in Jan we'll have to get rid of one.

We'll just have to win the league with a back 4 of Milner,Henderson, Matip and Robbo?

still looks like an upgrade on ours

????

Might it be churlish to suggest it was a certain Mr Sterling attempting to be a "big man"?!

Not sure we'll rush to bring anyone in though depending on how serious this injury is. No (left sided especially) central defender is going to want to come in knowing as soon as Virgil is fit again they'll drop down the pecking order. Gomez has been a monster alongside Virgil, and 2 freak incidents and they're both out? Couldn't write it...!

Given that tackling is more or less prohibited now it's surprising his ankles are dodgy! Unless he's kicking the dog at home and doing the damage there!! ? ? ?

Sorry fishy I thought my initial post was obvious by stating foreign.

Anyway, I disagree that he's injury prone. 3 bad injuries is hardly injury prone IMO but if you and the media want to label him as that then thats your opinion.

I'd say Matip is the definition of injury prone, a bit like Daniel Sturridge. He is someone who is out lots of times for little injuries, pulls,strains etc

Gomez is major-injury prone, especially when in the Ingurland camp.

You guys heard about Greenwood?

https://www.independent.co.uk/sport...rrested-rape-false-imprisonment-b1722271.html

Strong rumours that Greenwood is the guy. If true it's starting to look like another promising career down the pan just like Ravel Morrison.

Certainly something odd about him being completely dropped by England (and u21’s) whilst Foden has been been back in the squad since they were droppEd.

Just like to say well done to Scotland.

There are stories out there that he’s been suicidal since the death of one of his friends, too.

Unfounded rumours ATM

There is also talk his friend recently killed himself and it's hit him hard ..

Fair enough. I haven’t looked into it at all. So the first story that could explain the absence was what I just saw from Orikoru.

Hopefully with all the stuff about men’s mental health being highlighted atm, he will get support Irrespective of the other news.

It's amazing how things work

Liverpool last season got very lucky with injuries , key players not all missing together . Much like when the foxes won the league ..

However this year wow how unlucky can they be. Gomez out.

Not the best display of social distancing I’ve seen. (If true of course)

Lucky with injures last season ?

Last season at times we had

Allison , Matip , TAA , Fabinho , Mane , Salah , Henderson out injured - the media narrative was we were lucky with injuries when it clearly wasn’t the case ( same with the VAR nonsense )
