Liverpool defender Joe Gomez: The hopes I have for my career

Liverpool defender Joe Gomez admits he's trying to develop consistency in his game.

Gomez has forced his way back into the starting XI im recent games.

“To just be the best version of myself," the 26-year-old said of his objectives, speaking to the On the Judy podcast.

“I want to have consistency and durability, play a solid season and enjoy my football more than anything. I obviously have a different outlook on it because of the injuries [in the past]. But just be the best version of myself and see where that takes me. Control the controllables because sometimes opportunity comes, sometimes it doesn't.

“If I can look back and say that I did everything I could to be the best version of me, where that takes me is what it is. I'm grateful to be at the club that I'm at but, at the same time, have that balance of the hunger to want to keep striving, for sure."
