      Sky Sports:

      GOMEZ WON'T BE LOANED

      Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers says there's no chance new defender Joe Gomez will go out on loan next season.

      "He will stay here and compete for a place," the Northern Irishman confirmed in the Reds' post-match press conference following their 2-1 win against Brisbane Roar today.

      Rogers also refused to comment on reports suggesting Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke was on the verge of moving to Anfield.


      Fantastic stuff. It's simple - no matter what their age is, give the youngsters a chance. I think they'd develop better here than go on loan personally.

      About time we gave our youngsters a straight shot rather than loaning them. Wisdom and Ibe went on loan last year, yet Wisdom was still better than useless youngsters like Manquillo (a waste of space) and Ibe proved himself to be more capable than most of our players last season.

      Looks like he may be back up to Moreno as most journo's are saying after Benteke there will be no more signings, although imo we still need a DLPM.

      I really hope it isn't the end of spending, the net spend would be quite low too wouldn't it?

      Then you run into the problem of trying to bed in too many new players, but I suppose if they are top quality then that should not be too much of an issue.

      Another DM is needed whether Lucas stays or not.

      Really liked him, maybe he could play in Moreno's place.

      Let's hope so.  Couldn't get much worse at LB than Moreno, surely Gomez would be a better option?

      I bet he's wondering if everything is for real. Gone from playing right back for Charlton to being one of the stand out players in both of our pre-season friendlies so far.

      Coates also had an excellent pre-season last year.  Result?  he got loaned out.

      I think we've learned by now that under Rodgers, playing well doesn't necessarily mean you get into the team ahead of players who are worse than you.

      Coates was not up to it. That's why he never made the cut.

      I never said anything about him getting game time over anybody else and Brendan has already said he definitely won't be loaned out. I was merely stating that the lad must be on cloud 9 right now, nothing else.

      Two games in pre season at an unfamiliar position in no way guarantees Gomez is a better LB than Moreno.

      Well it would be quite an achievement to be a WORSE leftback than Moreno...

      Not really.

      I'd guess there are hundreds playing in Europe and beyond that aren't as good as him.

      Stop being a tit.

      Thought so debs, he seems pretty decent on the ball though so LB might not be a stretch. Either way I'd say he's competing with Clyne to get some gametime at RB this season. Pleased he won't be going out on loan though.
