The length of Andy Robertson’s ban for his red card has been announced. 🟥 The news we’ve all been waiting for 😱 buh you will still need to feel for him

Liverpool faced a challenging situation after being reduced to ten men within just 17 minutes of play. Despite this setback, Arne Slot’s side demonstrated extraordinary determination, fighting through adversity to secure a hard-earned draw. This display of resilience reinforces their credentials as title contenders.
For teams like Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City, this result might feel like a missed opportunity, especially given Liverpool’s high standards this season. However, Liverpool fans could interpret this performance as another testament to their team’s championship potential.
The true implications of this match will only become clear with time.
Arne Slot will be absent from the upcoming Southampton clash due to a one-match suspension, following his third yellow card of the season. Previous bookings against Arsenal and Chelsea culminated in his suspension after Saturday’s incident. Lewis Steele, a Daily Mail reporter, confirmed on X (formerly Twitter) that this ban will not affect Liverpool’s Premier League encounter with Tottenham.
Slot’s suspension came after he expressed frustration over referee Tony Harrington’s decision to caution Curtis Jones during the second half. While Southampton may not pose a significant threat, Liverpool would undoubtedly prefer their manager on the touchline as they aim to get back to winning ways in the league.
In other news, Andy Robertson’s red card for denying Harry Wilson a goalscoring opportunity means he will serve his suspension during the League Cup match against Southampton. The left-back will be unavailable for the fixture against Russell Martin’s struggling side.
However, some remarks following the 2-2 draw with Fulham have sparked minor concerns about Robertson’s availability moving forward. Addressing the situation, Arne Slot explained:
“If you take a kick like that—two studs on the knee—it’s bound to hurt. We hoped it would improve if he kept playing, especially since I only had one defender on the bench, and he wasn’t a left-back. Robertson pushed through, but I noticed he wasn’t himself when he tracked a ball over his head. While he managed to head it back to Alisson, it became clear he was struggling, and not long after, he was sent off.”
Slot emphasized, “There’s no fault on his part—he showed incredible character by trying to continue. Unfortunately, it ended with a justified red card.”
Though Robertson’s injury doesn’t appear serious enough to keep him out for weeks, it remains a concern, particularly with Kostas Tsimikas still recovering. The lack of depth at left-back could pose a challenge for Liverpool in th
e coming matches.
