Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has raved about his teammate Thiago on the club’s official website, and has said that the midfielder often shocks him.
Gomez made the comments about Thiago following Liverpool’s win against Watford at Anfield in the Premier League at the weekend.
The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich midfielder was an imposing figure in the middle of the park and played some lovely balls forward.

Gomez said about Thiago: “It’s a special team. Thiago is one of many, we [have] got so much talent in this team.
“Sometimes I don’t see them [passes], even if you’re receiving them, you just get surprised that he comes your way but that is one of his qualities, I think, breaking lines and advancing us, always looking to play a forward pass is one of his top attributes.”
Turning on the style
In our opinion, Thiago is now showing what he is capable of and is proving why Liverpool signed him from Bayern in the summer of 2020.
The Spaniard had injury problems last season, but this time around, he is playing a big role in the Reds’ quest to win the Premier League, the Champions League and the FA Cup.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have already won the Carabao Cup this campaign.
Thiago has made 12 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League for Liverpool so far this season.
The Spain international midfielder has scored one goal and given two assists in those games.
In our view, Thiago will have a big role to play for Liverpool in the final weeks of the season.
