Could Liverpool star Andrew Robertson add more to his game?
BBC pundit Garth Crooks has urged Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson to add another element to his game.
Crooks believes Robertson should attempt more shots at goal, suggesting that he has the ability to pose more of a threat than he currently shows.
He told BBC Sport: “The Scottish international was outstanding yet again for Liverpool. Robertson was so effective down Liverpool’s left-hand side and almost entirely responsible for Sadio Mane’s brilliant opening goal.
“My only criticism of Robertson is someone who strikes the ball as cleanly as he does should be having more shots on goal. He has the firepower, now apply the confidence.”
It may be more a case of selflessness, than a lack of confidence for Robertson.
He is a prolific assister, and this is because he knows his role in the side is not to score goals, as there are players better equipped to do so, and he works on helping them do it.
Robertson is averaging 1.4 shots per game this season, which is reasonable to be fair for a defender, he just needs to execute better.
He has scored only once for Liverpool, and this came back in the 2017/18 season.
When he does net again, if he does it at Anfield, it will bring one of the loudest cheers of the season.
