A number of Liverpool supporters have been venting their frustration at Andy Robertson following a wasteful moment against Leeds United.
Jurgen Klopp’s champions drew 1-1 at Elland Road on Monday night as their up-and-down season continues. The Reds impressed in the first half, dominating possession and taking the lead through Sadio Mane, before losing their way after the interval.

Leeds created a host of good opportunities as the minutes ticked by and Diego Llorente headed the equaliser late on to secure a point for the Whites.
One hugely frustrating moment proved to be pivotal, however, with Robertson wasting a three-on-two situation when Liverpool were 1-0 up, over-hitting a simple pass.
Had the same scenario occurred in the previous few seasons, chances are the Scot would have teed up a teammate with an inch-perfect ball, but he has struggled in 2020/21, registering no assists for the Reds in this calendar year.

“It is not Klopp’s fault that Robertson cannot give a good pass to a teammate at 2 meters to end a counter-attack. Robertson this year has been horrible”

“Robertson gets the ball, has a man either side of him with a relatively easy pass on to both, bearing down on goal.. and I knew he’d misplace the pass, just knew it”
