SHOOT’s Arsenal-Liverpool combined XI

Centre-back: Joe Gomez (Liverpool)

A player that’s impressed at both right-back (explaining Alexander-Arnold’s rotation) and centre-half, Gomez has been one of the standout performers in the Premier League this term.

Quick, strong and calm in possession, he’s showing all the attributes needed to be a world-class defender… and he’s only 21.

Arsenal’s centre-backs of Shkodran Mustafi, Rob Holding and Sokratis Papastathopoulos, plus team-mates Dejan Lovren and Joel Matip, simply don’t come close.
