Ok... So Gomez isn't injury prone, he's fragile. Getting in rough and dirty is part and package of a defender's life unfortunately. Hopefully he's just been unlucky. Carragher was the recipient of many a nasty tackle yet I don't think he had to sit out for months from it. Some lads are harder to break than others. Whether you call it injury prone or fragile, it's always best to have backups if one of youor best players in a position misses several months of every season.
I'm astounded that when actual facts are presented people think they can redirect to stick with a failed point. I will just top this off here and now. Joe gomez is TWENTY ONE. yeah that's all 21. he got a couple of impact injuries and is still maturing as a player and as a young boy as well. if people want a comparison then I suggest you go look at varane at real Madrid. he is considered one of the classiest centre backs on the planet and he has constant muscular injuries. have we seen gomez get hamstrings, thigh injuries, groin injuries etc? no we have not.
Disregard their ability, they’re not readily available because they miss a lot of matches due to injuries. Whether a player is injured due to recurring niggles or big impact. We need a defender who either isn’t injury prone or is simply lucky.
Getting injured fault of players?. Some players do not get injured often, e g Luis Suarez, also Mo Salah are they more clever avoiding injuries or lucky?,
It's going to cost us this season. A defence of Matip and Lovren against Bayern scares me. Utd will target Lovren as will any decent forward. Appreciate there's nothing we can do if players aren't available but I do agree we need a CB. Also accept we need full backs now clyne and Moreno are gone.... And another midfielder (rabiot on a free?) if Milner is off. Draxler would do (remember him? Is he playing much?) And a forward (werner please) As you can see, I don't expect much
mo salah.... impact injury... cl final.. sell him on asap!!!!! again look at the actual facts in both thier careers.

Until we get a really string starting XI that never miss a game, were doomed! Often hear on here that we could do with a bastard in the team. No point in going that, they'll miss too many games through suspension!
