Games live Klopp on the third anniversary of Robertson`s transfer: It exceeded all my expectations
Andy Robertson has exceeded absolutely all expectations of Jurgen Klopp with his behavior on and off the field in the first three years of his stay at Anfield. The left-back joined Liverpool on July 21, 2017 and became a key player for the `reds` in the march to the English, European and world top.
On the third anniversary of Robertson`s signature, Klopp was asked if this was his best transfer in terms of `price for quality`.
`I don`t like the fact that footballers are constantly talked about how much they cost. As for Andy Robertson, I`m not sure if we would have paid ? 30 million for him at the time, but it would have been worth it if they had asked us that much. But no, not himwe took it because of its price. It might have cost only 8 million, but then it wasn`t a lot of money. It`s actually a lot for a footballer who`s not good enough. That`s it, `said the German.
`We hired Andy Robertson because we needed the help of a left-back and we thought he could provide it for us. It was clear that he needed to improve some things in his game, but in other respects he was already excellent. So we decided to give himgive more time on the field.
`It was the right move and I`m happy because he`s everything I expected to have, and even more. Andy is a very good man, a great footballer and an amazing character. The transfer was beneficial for both us and this wonderful boy fromGlasgow. It fit us like a cut stone. `
