Liverpool legend John Arne Riise believes that Andy Robertson has what it takes to make the left-back position at the Reds his own following an impressive debut season.

The Scotsman , who arrived from Hull City in the summer, has proved his skeptics wrong with a strong second half of the season, in which he has usurped Alberto Moreno as Jurgen Klopp's first choice left-back.

"I was surprised when they signed him," Riise told Sky Sports. "They have been after a left-back for a long time, but when they bought him for £8m, people including me weren't sure it was the right move.

"Moreno started the season well but since Robertson got a chance he has been brilliant. Going forward he is aggressive, he runs a lot and modern full-backs need to be fit to cover ground going forward and defensively.

"The way he is playing, you can see Klopp loves it. He's very fit, he gets forward a lot and he contributes some assists, he could add some goals but it's not his job. His job is to create things, and like me run for others."
