Liverpool’s Andy Roberts reveals he hasn’t trained for over two weeks

Liverpool star Andy Robertson has admitted that he had to pull out of Scotland’s Euro 2020 doubleheader so as not to risk wrecking a potentially momentous season with Liverpool. Robertson is out of the final match of the Scots’ qualifying campaign against Kazakhstan at Hampden Park next Tuesday. Quoted by the Daily Record , he said: “It’s a big disappointment for me. “The games in March (play-offs for the finals) are so big for us and will decide whether we go to a major tournament or not so we all have to be fully fit and fully firing and hopefully confident after these two results.” Robertson explained that he has been having to manage his injury in recent matches. He said: “The call has been made and it has been taken out of my hands. It hurts as captain to miss out but I’ve had to be selfish for the first time in my career and let my body rest. “I’ve had to listen to the people around me when previously I would have told them to beat it. The fact my ankle has swollen up again has made it easier to miss these games. “For the last two and a half weeks I’ve not trained at all for Liverpool. I’ve trained the day before a game, missed a Champions League game other than the last 15 minutes against Genk and missed Arsenal in the League Cup.” Source- Liverpool Echo
