I gave him the chance to showcase his talent against Fulham, but he failed woefully. I don’t think I have plans for him this season because the board wants him out already, and there’s nothing I can do about that,” – Arne Slot confirms that a Liverpool star who started the against Fulham game is set to leave the Anfield in the January transfer window due to poor performances in training.

Liverpool Star Dubbed a Possible ‘Liability’ Following Errors Against Fulham

A Liverpool player has found himself under the spotlight after a series of mistakes in the recent clash with Fulham, sparking concerns that he might be a potential weak link in Arne Slot’s lineup.

Robertson’s Struggles in Fulham Match

Andy Robertson had a night to forget during Saturday’s game at Anfield. The Scottish captain endured a rough start, being outrun by Andreas Pereira for Fulham’s opening goal, taking a heavy knock from Issa Diop, and ultimately receiving a red card for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity—all within the first 17 minutes.

This performance has led to increased scrutiny of the 30-year-old left-back, with some questioning if his recent form has made him a liability for Liverpool.

Pundit Robbie Mustoe Weighs In

NBC Sports pundit Robbie Mustoe addressed Robertson’s performance on The 2 Robbies podcast, voicing his concerns about the player’s recent struggles.

“Is calling him a weakness at left-back too harsh? Maybe, but there have been noticeable mistakes and challenges in his game,” Mustoe remarked.

“He’s been an outstanding player, but you wonder if he’s lost a bit of pace or is just going through a tough patch. Either way, his errors have cost the team points.”

Robertson’s Continued Importance to Liverpool

Despite the criticism, it would be unfair to write off Robertson. Just days before the Fulham match, he was named UEFA’s Player of the Match for his standout performance in Liverpool’s Champions League win against Girona, proving he’s still capable of delivering at the highest level.

Although his attacking contributions have diminished this season—registering only one assist in 21 appearances—Robertson remains an experienced and influential presence in the squad.

A Problem at Left-Back

Liverpool’s current dilemma at left-back is exacerbated by Kostas Tsimikas’ injury, leaving limited options. Joe Gomez’s versatility might provide a short-term solution, or Slot could turn to promising youngster James Norris, similar to how Jurgen Klopp trusted Conor Bradley on the opposite flank earlier this season.

While Robertson’s form may have dipped, it’s too early to dismiss his value to the team. His leadership and experience will be crucial as Liverpool navigate the ch

allenges of their campaign.
