James Milner raves about Liverpool team-mate Andrew Robertson.
Speaking to The Mirror, James Milner has acknowledged Andrew Robertson after a brilliant first season at Liverpool.
The Scotland left-back joined Liverpool in an £8 million deal from Hull City last summer.
Despite a lukewarm start to life at Anfield, the 24-year-old has been an ever-present figure for Reds boss Jurgen Klopp in recent months.
And Milner has joined in the chorus of praise for Robertson, whom he described as “such a good player”.
“Robbo has been brilliant. He’s such a good player – he has shown that going forward and defensively as well. Sometimes you just see him going forward but he does some great work defensively as well,” he told The Mirror.
“It’s about his character too. He is a great lad to have around the dressing room. He is similar to how he plays on the pitch, a bubbly character. We love that as a group, it’s fantastic.”
Liverpool fans will take extra satisfaction in Robertson’s form due to the fact that left-back has been a position of some worry down the years.
Alberto Moreno’s deficiencies have cost the Reds in a big way at times in recent seasons, so it is refreshing for them to see a reliable player like Robertson who is brilliant at both ends of the field.
