To be fair he wasn't out of place as everyone else on the pitch was also rubbish. I think that's very harsh to be honest. He may not have had a typically good game but 'rubbish' is being ridiculous. He had a decent game, good effort on goal in the first half plus a number of dangerous crosses. Defended OK but lost the ball on a few occasions. Second top rating on BBC and decent ratings on any other site I've looked at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither team turned up last night. Do you actually watch much football? There’s 2 sides to every game and Robertson’s 1 v 1 defending was outstanding especially against Son in the second half when Spurs were building momentum. He was rock solid and a key reason to Liverpool winning the game. He also put in 2 or 3 outstanding deliveries and could easily have had an assist. It was the Champions League final and these games are rarely particularly open affairs, and it’s consistency, concentration and mental toughness that wins big finals like this. Robertson showed all 3 and his achievement here shouldn’t be downplayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one's downplaying his achievement and I'm not saying he's a bad player all I'm saying is that he didn't play well last night in what was a poor game. I've just heard him give an excellent interview on 5-live where he admitted that it had been a poor game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertson was a solid 7/10 last night like he has been all season, remarkably consistent. If Moreno was at left back last night Spurs wouldn’t have lost 2-0. Didn’t have a bad game at all.

SWMM82 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I think the fact that there is any argument that Robbo had a poor game last night is testament to the ridiculously high standards he has set this season. A few top class deliveries, great run and effort on goal and comfortable defensively. His positioning (probably the weakest part of his game) has improved this season as well. Think the Daily Mail gave him an 8.5 and man of the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Golden Vision Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Its great to see a Scottish player involved, even if it was a dire game. I hope it inspires a few more scottish youngsters to work hard. He wasnt a stand out at any age progressing through. but hard work and the right attitude have got him that medal and where he is today. He wasnt outstanding in that game, no one was. How Kane stayed on at half time I'll never know. Its nit picking really but a few have mentioned world class deliveries, yes they were good crosses that looked great as they were in behind the defence but moving away from the keeper. But if you look at the again, no liverpool player was anywhere near them. It was a hit and hope. He actually would have been better keeping possesion.
