When Liverpool as a team played poorly against Real Madrid on Tuesday night, Joe Gomez took the lion’s share of the criticism.
However, the centre back’s shaky performance versus Madrid is indicative of a larger problem for the England national team as of late. Indeed, Gomez hasn’t gone to the track in a while, and he seems completely devoid of self-assurance.
As a result, we believe that Gomez would benefit from a loan away from Liverpool. Gomez hasn’t been able to get into the starting lineup often at Liverpool owing to the depth of the team’s defensive options.
He might get back into game shape by playing often and focus on refining his skills without feeling as much pressure. A loan transfer would be beneficial for both Liverpool and Gomez since Liverpool would have the chance to evaluate their defense alternatives and perhaps replace Gomez. The move would provide the young defender with a chance to play in a less stressful setting and go back to the form that helped him win the Premier League and the Champions League.
There is always a chance that Gomez’s loan transfer won’t work out, and that his confidence will take another hit if he is sent away. But, both the player and the club stand to benefit from taking that chance. Liverpool would benefit from adding a completely confident and in-form defender like Gomez, who clearly needs a change of scenery to get his career back on track.
In conclusion, Joe Gomez may benefit most from a loan transfer this next summer. In order to regain his self-assurance and form, he need have more playing time at a team in the middle of the league’s standings. Gomez has to rediscover the form that earned him the adjective “amazing.”
