Klopp names his Liverpool player of the season

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has declared Andrew Robertson his player of the season.

The Scot has missed only five minutes in the Premier League to date.

"Andy Robertson has been so consistent for us and is without doubt a leader in our dressing room," Klopp wrote in today's Liverpool match programme.

"The public often sees the 'fun' Robbo when he's doing media appearances or is caught on camera with his teammates. But that persona sometimes hides his other qualities.

"Incredibly brave, incredibly smart and someone who is very serious about his work. You don't become one of the best players in the world in your position without being the complete package.

"We appreciate him and his contribution like crazy at the moment and I hope he recognises just how important he and his personal qualities have been to this group during a challenging time."
