Joe Gomez has never had much luck with injury. The sight of him leaving the pitch against Plymouth. After picking up another issue, was something no Liverpool fan wanted to see.
“I am not too sure. I am not too เล่น UFABET ผ่านมือถือ สะดวกทุกที่ ทุกเวลา sure if it was the same leg, but I haven’t had time to ask him.
“It was clear, I think we all know which moment he felt a bit insecure about [it] because he didn’t sprint back fully.
“Then he said, ‘I am not 100 per cent sure. I am afraid if I make one extra sprint things will go wrong.’
