Si fuese futbolista, querría una carrera como la de Robertson. Siempre en la sombra y por detrás de las principales estrellas, sí, pero nadie se olvidará nunca de su nombre al decir de memoria el once de Klopp. Uno de esos jugadores que aparecen muy de vez en cuando, tanto por su rendimiento sobresaliente constante como por la oportunidad de mercado que supuso y el liderazgo que aportó.
Admiro tanto a este tío, que si fuese del Liverpool me dolería más esto que lo de Salah.
🏴 If Robertson Goes, Let It Be With Applause But Not Sentiment
Atletico Madrid see what we’ve seen for nearly a decade a relentless, snarling, top-class left back who never let the standard drop. If they come calling for Andy Robertson, they’re not just buying a player, they’re trying to import the mentality that turned #LFC from nearly-men into champions.
And if this is the moment he moves on, we should meet it with respect, not resistance.
He’s 31 now, entering the final year of his deal, his body bearing the toll of a thousand sprints and tackles made in anger. The timing makes sense. Robertson has earned the right to choose his next challenge, and Liverpool have earned the right to plan beyond him.
That’s why backing a move for Milos Kerkez isn’t a betrayal, it’s just smart. Liverpool aren’t waiting around to be caught flat-footed. Kerkez is younger, more suited to Slot’s system, and ready to inject new life into a flank that increasingly felt strained last season. This is what ruthless, modern football looks like; evolution without apology.
Robertson leaves behind more than medals. He leaves a standard, a style, a refusal to accept second best. If Atletico think they’re signing a player on the slide, they’ll be shocked. But if they’re signing a warrior for one last great campaign, they may have timed it perfectly.
Whatever happens, Robertson should go with thanks ringing in his ears. He made Liverpool better. Now Liverpool must do the same for themselves.

I gave it everything….
Congratulations @McIlroyRory on winning the @TheMasters and completing the Grand Slam.. very cool sharing the green with you in that moment…
Thank you Team🌹 as always for all the support during the week… We go again 👊🏻
The way Rory McIlroy just slayed his white whale is a microcosm for his career.
Jaw-dropping natural ability. Exhilarating runs of genius. Torturous setbacks. And he just keeps coming back.
A Masters champion. The career Grand Slam. The greatest player of his generation.
Darwin Nunez will get the headlines and rightly so, but Harvey Elliott also made a massive impact off the bench. Played a big part in both goals. Elliott has been under-played so far this season. Deserves more opportunities.
I dont think people realize how hard it is to do what Joe Gomez has just done. This is absolutely unreal.
Hasnt played much. Who knows how fitness levels are in terms of match fitness due to not playing much.
Who knows how his confidence is. How mentally ready he is.
To come in for one of our better players this season so far, Konate....and for it to feel like we didnt drop in quality.
Absolutely sensational. Take a bow, Joe Gomez
33) De lo que si quedó registro, en cambio, es de la nauseabunda corrupción y violencia que predomina en varias partes de México. Esas historias de terror que escuchamos de exfuncionarios públicos aquí procesados debería ser EL ESCÁNDALO.
Y no namás quien sale embarrado.
Thread: Brazil is ranked number two in the world lists of Covid fatalities, behind the USA. But that is almost certainly wrong. Mexico is almost surely number two. And in this story, we explain why. https://t.co/xeKgkMU1kJ via @WSJ
Trumpism won’t be defeated by beating Trump, but it can be suffocated by reforming our anti-majoritarian institutions and ensuring that our electorate actually looks like America in the 21st century. It should be our highest priority if we win - we may not get another chance.
