Signing a contract doesn't always mean that you will stay.0

I really dont get some fans begrudging a player who has made it to the very top from being with us to playing for a top team that wins trophies and gets into finals and is no doubt on silly money yet think he should leave all that just to try and get in a world cup squad and prove something to you
yea ok😂

Last season he was still coming back after a long injury. If he has confidence in his ability why would he move to a lesser club like Villa or Newcastle? Remember Matip and Van Dyke are both past 30 which also may be in his thinking. England is a red herring. Southgate has, wrongly in my opinion, shown no interest in including him or giving him any encouragement.2

Obviously the sell on bonus would have been nice. Can buy a lot of Swindon Town players with that kind of money.3 -

Ignoring the financial aspect but Gomez might, actually, want to win things. He may only play 20-25 times a season for Liverpool but might, still, contribute to their success especially if called upon to do so in big games. What's he going to win at Newcastle or Villa. Not the PL or the CL that's for certain.
And what are the chances, if he were to leave, one getting in the England squad let alone team before October AND win the World Cup? He's 5/1 to make the squad so let's say 10/1 to make the team. And we are 8/1 to win it. So, that's combined odds of 98/1 or approximately 1% of doing so.
We all want the Club to get that extra pay out. But we shouldn't let that desire to cloud our judgement on what is right for Gomez. I might be wrong but didn't he sign a three year contract when he was 17 just so we could get more for him at the end of the season? In which case, he's already done us one favour. One day he might do us another but now it not the right time for him to do so.5 -
Disappointed in him tbh. I get it, football is a short career and you need to make as much as possible in it, and Liverpool is a great club to be associated with. But, he's not going to play regularly for them unless they have severe injuries again, and given his track record one of those severe injuries will be him anyway.0
-
Well, I for one am very happy for the lad. Been very unlucky with injuries. He’s at the highest level even if only a bit part player and he now has complete financial security. Who knows, an injury to Matip, Virgil or Konate and he’s in the side. Exactly the sort of versatile player that should be in a World Cup squad. Good luck to you Joe.8

Not sure I agree with those talking about the financial side though. Liverpool aren't normally as generous as the likes of City or Chelsea. Robertson's new deal was 'only' 100k a week. I believe Gomez was on around 75, surely no more than 80 with this new deal. So guesswork either way, but I think he could have earned a similar amount elsewhere.0 -
Yeah you're right @Addick Addict better to sit on Liverpool's bench and watch your teammates win trophies than play every week and earn a spot in the World Cup side, and possibly then earn a move back to a top 4 side that actually plays you week in week out and values you more.

Will end up like Wilshere, great promise but never fulfilled because of injuries.
Will stay at Liverpool for most of his career in that bit-part role.3
