Bad news for Liverpool. Joe Gomez in a lot of pain on the sidelines after a challenge with Ben Mee. He's being carried off on a stretcher. Trent Alexander-Arnold is coming on to replace him at Burnley. #BFC 0-0 #LFC #PLonNBC

It's never been doubted that Gomez is a big talent by those who frequent Anfield, although it's only really in 2018-19 when he has established himself as one of the best young prospects in the division.
