Gomez laid on an assist for Diogo Jota to score on the day.
He said, "It's the nature of the Premier League that games are not going to be easy. They put up a good fight, we knew they would be organised and well-drilled and they definitely made it tough right till the end."
On his desire for more starts, Gomez added: "Trent [Alexander-Arnold] is a top class player and obviously you know what he brings to the side. Playing right-back is not naturally my normal position but the nature of being at this club is that we are fighting for all competitions.
"It's a tough environment to be in but we have to push each other each week. We have to train well and wait for opportunities."
