Andy Robertson says a conversation with Jürgen Klopp helped change his fortunes after he joined Liverpool. According to reports, the Scotland international struggled for playing time in his first season at Anfield, making only three starts before December. The early difficulty was linked to Klopp’s assessment of his defending, which led to reservations about his role in the team. Robertson has since described how Klopp addressed the issue in a direct chat, which he says became a turning point for his development and confidence. While accounts focus on Robertson’s early use under Klopp, they agree on the central elements: he initially started sparingly, Klopp had concerns about aspects of his defending, and the subsequent discussion plays a key role in how he progressed from there. The reports do not provide additional specifics such as the exact wording of the conversation, the dates of the match starts, or details of any tactical changes, but they align on the idea that Klopp’s feedback helped Robertson establish himself at Liverpool as his career at the club moved forward.
