On this anniversary, I reflect on Joe Gomez’s decade at Liverpool — a career marked by resilience, versatility, and the quiet grace of someone who never scored a goal but gave everything to the jersey. As a Chicago-born storyteller with roots in urban poetry and sports culture, I see his journey not just as a football tale, but as a meditation on belonging, patience, and the beauty of unseen contributions. This is more than stats — it's about identity.
