Sessegnon would be a great alternative if Moreno leaves, but i feel he is more attacking minded player, more than a defensive one right?

he used to play as a winger for Fulham as far as i remember..

He definitely needs back up. I'm not sure who but I'm sure they are looking.

Its likely Klopp will want a multi-functional player, maybe someone who can play left back and centreback? There is also Sessegnon who plays further forward but can play left back.

Either way Robertson is amazing but because the fullbacks are key attackers, we have to have someone else who can play.

Agree. Whoever comes in as a Robertson backup will be someone who can play another position, probably central defence. A left-sided Joe Gomez type maybe. Or a Sessegnon or Moreno type that can play farther forward too.

Andy Robertson has also been awarded the PFA Community Champion award for generally being a thoroughly good egg.

Well in young man.

That is the profile of player I want as his back-up. Our full-backs are so crucial to our attack that I would be happy for us to get someone who is essentially a left winger (who has the pace to get back if needed) to bring in against the dross at home when we expect to dominate the ball. Robertson would still play the majority of games and always start against top opposition, but would be great to be able to rest him more.

Any of the kids in U-23s or below fit this profile?

It would need to be someone of good value as you'd expect Robbo to keep that left-back spot and only have occasional swaps in certain games or as back-up in case of injury etc. That would surely rule out players like Sessegnon, who already has a high profile in the English game and we all know that also means a high, inflated, price. Hopefully we fish out another pearl in the same way we fished out this one. Someone not necessarily noticed but one that has all of the attributes and qualities to work in our system who would turn into a very good player with Klopp's guiding hand.

Stanley N'Soki plays leftback and centreback, is young and pretty highly regarded. He'd be a good shout.

One thing I love about this team is that there are so many lovable players on it. I want to say Robertson is my favourite player, but I could say the same about van Dijk, Mane or Firmino as well. Wijnaldum, Milner, Alisson, Trent, Henderson, Salah etc. are also all so likeable...what a time to be a Red.

Not on the right end of the score, but he was sensational.

This is a bit generous for me - he summed us up tonight - good in the first two thirds, pretty bad in the final third.

Yeah. An 8 out of 10 at best. His crossing was unusually off. I'd expected it would have caused more problems.

Not just him either - I don’t know why we were crossing so much in the second half when they’d packed the box and we didn’t even have a striker to aim at

You mean Robertson?

He ran the Barca defence ragged up to the extent that none of them could close down Shaq for the cross or jump to compete with Gini.

Loved that push on Messi's head! Messi's sat there like "No one does that I'm the best in the world". Robbo replies "Not anymore you're not! We've got Divock!"

Seriously though I hope he's okay, we need him for Sunday. Should be okay for the final as it's in three weeks.

Any news on his injury?

Quote
Andy Robertson will undergo a scan on Wednesday to determine the extent of the calf injury he sustained during Liverpool’s remarkable 4-0 win over Barcelona.

The left-back came off at half-time in the Champions League semi-final second leg at Anfield following a collision with Luis Suarez shortly before the break.

Jürgen Klopp revealed post-match that Robertson’s issue was with his calf, and the Scotland captain offered some detail on the problem in the tunnel.

“It doesn’t feel the best at the minute but I’ll get a scan tomorrow,” Robertson told Liverpoolfc.com.

“They’re confident that it’s just a nerve or whatever and it can be maybe a couple of days, but we’ll wait and see. We can’t really comment until I get the scan, but I’ll be saying my prayers tonight.”

Looks like he should be fine for Sunday if the medical staff are right.
