Milner Hails Gomez After Stunning Four-Goal Display Against Barnsley
Veteran midfielder James Milner has heaped praise on young striker Diego Gomez after the forward produced a sensational performance, netting four goals in a standout match against Barnsley last night.
Milner, speaking after the game, said: “I think we’ve found a better goal scorer — what a great hat-trick, and then he even added a fourth. He should be promoted to the first team without delay.”
Gomez’s ruthless finishing left fans and teammates buzzing, with many of his fellow players reportedly urging the coach to hand the youngster more opportunities at senior level. Their belief is that the 20-year-old could provide the cutting edge the side has been missing in front of goal.
The Wolves Academy product has been in impressive form in recent weeks, but last night’s display has elevated his reputation further, sparking debate among supporters and pundits about whether he is ready to make the step up.
With fixtures piling up and the need for consistent firepower evident, Gomez’s rise may have come at the perfect time. If his teammates’ pleas are heard, fans could soon see him in the first team delivering the goals they crave.
