Speaking on the Premier League’s YouTube channel, Ibrahima Konate has been chatting about his Liverpool teammate Andy Robertson.

The Frenchman is the newest arrival at Anfield, and while he may still be settling into his new surroundings, it hasn’t taken him long to suss out Robertson.

Indeed, Konate was asked who the biggest joker in the squad is, and he didn’t hesitate to choose Robertson as the biggest prankster in the side.

What’s Konate said about Robertson?

Konate named the Scot as the biggest joker in the squad, claiming that the left-back is crazy.

“I think Robertson, he’s crazy, this guy is crazy. Did you see he fights with Cristiano, he fights with Messi? He is crazy, I think it’s Robertson, yes,” Konate said.

Mad as a hatter

Robertson is a one of a kind character in football, and sometimes you get to see a glimpse of his eccentricity on the pitch.

As Konate says, Robertson has gone head to head with both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the past, and there aren’t many footballers who would dare to do that.

The left-back comes across brilliantly whenever he is interviewed, and it’s probably great to have him in the dressing room.

Yes, as Konate says, he may be a bit crazy, but this sport is often at its best when players show their character.

Robertson is a brilliant player, but his off-field exploits make him an even firmer fan favourite at Anfield.
