Has been working exceptionally hard to get back and I have no doubt he will come back even better and stronger than before.
The rehabilitation Liverpool have is top class, he's had a professional with him every step of the way, yes he has had set backs, but they've really looked after him, pushing him to get stronger.
100% he will be playing in 4 weeks time after the international break. He maybe back in full training, but being back and physically ready to play in a Klopp side is two different things.
Expect him to be in the England squad come this time next year, so long as he has no further set backs. Top class player, who I wish we could've kept him, but at least I can say I saw him enough times in a Charlton shirt, first team and youth teams.
This is where the emergency loan window made sense, as he could go on loan for a month or two to a championship club to regain match fitness. Now he has to wait to play in reserve games or the cups before being thrust back into the premier league

I read recently in the Daily Mirror (also the Liverpool Echo) that Klopp doesn't want to risk Gomez out on loan.
Asked if Gomez would compete for a first-team spot in the new year or head out on loan, Klopp said: “No to the second question about a loan.
“For us, I don’t think so. We had a very good talk. What I think about Joe Gomez is he is an unbelievable talent, which everybody knew before. It’s a long injury and if we send him on loan, with his quality, a team will play him every game. That is not what he needs in the moment. Because he was a long time injured he needs us to judge: ‘now play, now stop, rest, work on this, do this, do a little bit on this’.”
Klopp is a huge admirer of Gomez and wanted to take him to Borussia Dortmund before his Liverpool job, seems like he wants to take great care of him. I suppose this is how the professionals manage players injuries?

Klopp is a very intelligent manager, no offence to the recent incumbents (well, offence intended to Karel) but when you read even a short comment like that you start to understand why guys like him are at the top of their game.
Liverpools defencd is very vulnerable this year, if Joe can get him back to something approaching match fitness over the festive period he could have a big second half of the season.

I think that's exactly why the emergency loan system was abolished in the Premier League, what you've described couldn't really be considered an "emergency" could it ? Personally I think it should be allowed, but only for goalkeepers.

Yes but Klopp has very sagely turned that idea down. He wants for himself and his team to manage Gomez's comeback, which I think is very smart.
Contrast that to Kashi or Diarra coming back into the side last year. Admittedly, I don't think Diarra was doing any further damage to himself given it was a fracture, but we see where Kashi is. A team like Liverpool can be more patient as they have a far larger squad and group of academy players to soften the blow, but still, they seem concerned in the player's long term health.
I have vaguely heard that, down the years, there has been talk in American sports, particularly American Football, about who club physios and doctors should work for. I don't follow it closely enough to have a firm understanding, but I believe a tendency toward shortsightedness to injuries was due in part to the team pressuring doctors to get players back on the field as quickly as possible.
I'll dig around and see if I can find any articles on this, as I suspect this goes on in all sport.

Interesting point. Could having doctors employed by the governing body (FA, ECB, NFL, etc.) work? Regardless of who the club appoints to do the treatment, the overseeing doctor decides if the player is fit to return. I can see all sorts of court cases coming out of that.

I seem to recall that being one idea, and another them being employed by players' unions. But yeah, it's easy to see how the team employing the doctor could create a conflict of interest between what's best for the team versus what's best, long term, for the player.

It's easy to be patient with a squad defender who's barely played for you. At the end of the season if Liverpool are scrapping for top 4, key players will be playing when not fully fit, as the reward is so great

Good luck Gomez.
Huddersfield interested in taking Joe Gomez on loan when he returns to match fitness; @LFC want him to get regular games.
Makes absolute sense him going there and linking up with Kasey Palmer though
He'll potentially save them so much money in January!!

Klopp obviously has a lot of time for Joe. Let's hope he's back permanently very soon.
