Robertson delighted with Liverpool start in Champions League

Andy Robertson has been delighted with Liverpool's start to the season.

The Reds have gone unbeaten so far this season, which leaves top of their Champions League group following Tuesday's win over Atletico Madrid.

"It's such a good start to the campaign but now it's important that we see it through and we qualify with as many games to go," Robertson told the club's website.

"If it's possible to qualify in the next game, we want to do it of course. It's always easier when you can do it with two games left or one game left, but the aim is still to qualify and hopefully finish top of the group – but it's a really tough group.

"To get the nine points to start, it's a fantastic start and we know Atletico don't get beat here very often.

"The fact we've come away with the points is the most important thing. An ugly win but sometimes they're the better ones.

"To get nine points out of nine is so important. We've now got them back at Anfield in a couple of weeks and we need to probably play better than we did and hopefully be as clinical as we were. Hopefully that will be enough to see us through."
