Gomez still has plenty to achieve despite Premier League debut with Liverpool

Liverpool summer signing Joe Gomez isn't letting his promising start at the club get to his head.

The 18-year-old defender has made an impressive beginning to his Reds career, featuring in both of the opening Premier League games which have yielded two clean sheets.

Despite the bright start, the former Charlton Athletic star maintains that he hasn't proved anything yet and still has a lot to achieve at the club.

"I wouldn't say it has been a dream," he said. "I think I said the move to come to Liverpool was a dream, but I know I have only played two games.

"I haven't done anything yet. It has been positive and a really good learning experience. The one thing it has done is it has motivated me to try and do more.

"There was a possibility I might go on loan, but, for me, I didn't want to aim for that. I wanted to come and play but I knew being young and coming from the Championship that that could be a possibility, especially because there are top quality players here."
