Liverpool 'made a point' with PSG victory - Gomez
Liverpool's Champions League win over Paris Saint-Germain proved they are on a par with Europe's best, according to Joe Gomez. Jurgen Klopp's side had seen a two-goal lead slip away at Anfield as Thomas Meunier and Kylian Mbappe cancelled out efforts from Daniel Sturridge and James Milner. However, Roberto Firmino - emerging from the bench following his eye injury - struck in stoppage time to seal a thrilling 3-2 triumph. And defender Gomez, who lauded the Reds' strength in depth, felt the result had sent a clear message, particularly after Saturday's 2-1 victory at Tottenham. "I think this year we're confident as a team," he said. "The squad is so strong as a unit. With Bobby [Firmino] obviously struggling, Studge [Sturridge] comes in and scores for us. It shows we have so much quality.

We have to. "Although we see ourselves [that way], we have to make the point. And that's what we've done by beating both of them [Spurs and PSG]." The triumph extended Liverpool's perfect start to the 2018-19 season, but Gomez warned against complacency. "We've got a tough few games coming up - Chelsea, who have a 100 per cent record, and Southampton at the weekend," he said. "No game is easy. We have to keep going."
