Klopp will insist they go, he wanted Salah to go New york for the times thing he will want our lads in London for this.

When do they fly to Barcelona?

Well done Robbo for getting onto the Player of the Year team. How Pogba got ahead of Hazard and Salah is baffling. He had one reasonable patch this season but is nowhere near the standard I would expect to get nominated onto the team.

I couldn't hear what was said exactly but on NBC they mentioned he equaled or broke a new assist record from a full back position in the league.

Was that right?

Best assist total from full back for Liverpool in the PL era, I believe.

Robertson and Trent are two of the best crossers of the ball in the league - those whipped deliveries in from deep are so hard to defend against, and the consistency is of the highest order. £8m for both of them  ;D

Debate rages on the Caf over Shaw vs Robertson. One bright spark thinks Shaw is more talented, but Robertson is playing in a system designed to make him look far better than he is.

Isn't that literally the point of football management? Work out a way of playing that allows as many of the players you have to perform at a higher level?

It’s a man united forum. Of course they will be biased towards him. Don’t know why our members spend so much time on their to be honest.

Robertson was an absolute steal at 8m. He’s probably worth up to 10 times that based on his stats alone from this season and he’s still young.

Playing for such a shite intentional side will benefit his club career long term too. He’s going to be a mainstay in our starting eleven for years to come

Andy has arguably been our player of the season.
What else can he do in his LB role?

It's just a shame he's in the same side as other contenders such as Virgil and Mane!

That's another reason why these 'player of the season' awards are so shite. It's a team game.

Idiots. They had two decades of players looking better than they were because of their manager, yet they constantly overrate those legends, despite contrary to the individual recognition each of them had.

In our case, in previous years, we had only a few great players at once, now we're shattering PL records. Our players are as good as the team is now, and more. There's a lot more to come from this side.

Let's just say that Robertson is suited to Liverpool, and Shaw perfect for United.

Robertson being great and available for almost all games could make it challenging to find a very good backup. The best players want to play, and at the same time it's unlikely that we'll throw massive wages on someone who will play less than 10 matches per season. These are luxury problems which you get when you have great players.

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.

I honestly think Sessegnon is the best option. Cover at LB, good age profile, can play further forward and could be play either wing, and he is a cracking player. Will need to pay biggish for him but with Fulham relegated they are not in a great position to negotiate.
