Gary Neville singles out 'outstanding' Joe Gomez for praise after Liverpool centre back put in man of the match display against Manchester City... with Reds ace shackling Erling Haaland

Gary Neville singled out Joe Gomez for praise after the centre back put in an imperious display against Manchester City at Anfield.

Gomez, next to Virgil van Dijk, kept out City's array of attacking talent - most notably Erling Haaland - as Liverpool ended Pep Guardiola's side's unbeaten start to the league season.

Awarding the defender the man of the match award over James Milner, Neville labelled Gomez 'outstanding'.
