Garth Crooks has praised Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson for his performance against Wolverhampton Wanderers this past weekend.
Andy Robertson was in action for Liverpool against Wolverhampton Wanderers away from home in the Premier League this past weekend.
Liverpool won the match 3-1.
Wolves took an early lead, but Liverpool scored three goals to pick up all three points from the encounter.
The Reds were poor in the first 45 minutes, but the former Premier League and UEFA Champions League winners stepped up their game in the second period.
Scotland international left-back Robertson scored one of the goals for Jurgen Klopp’s side.
It came in the 85th minute.
Former Tottenham Hotspur forward Garth Crooks has included the £100,000-a-week (Spotrac) defender in his Premier League Team of the Week.
Crooks has hailed Robertson for his contribution to the win for Liverpool and has praised his overall performance.
However, the BBC Sport pundit believes that the left-back should have done better for the goal for the Wolves scored.
Garth Crooks on Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson
Crooks wrote about Robertson on BBC Sport: “It’s been some time since Robertson made my team but I thought his overall contribution to Liverpool’s victory at Wolves was well worth his selection.
“The international break clearly had an impact on Liverpool’s excellent league form, especially in the first half.
“Robertson’s role as skipper for club and country seems to suit him, although I thought he might have done more to block Hwang Hee-chan’s shot, which resulted in the hosts taking the lead.
“Nevertheless, the Scotland international was instrumental in keeping Liverpool’s run going with a well-taken goal.
“Liverpool are looking good, while their retention of Mohamed Salah is pivotal. All credit to Jurgen Klopp and the club. Few would have turned down such a lucrative offer from the Saudi Pro League.”
Andy Robertson an important player for Liverpool
In our view, Andy Robertson is one of the best and most important players for Liverpool.
The Scotland international is a constant figure in the Liverpool team and is very consistent in his performances.
Robertson is very good going on the attack and is also brilliant defensively.
And he is at the top of his game now.
Liverpool are aiming to win the Premier League this season.
We believe that for the Reds to be successful in that quest, Robertson will have to be on top of his game throughout.
