Arne Slot discusses Andy Robertson’s form amid unprecedented rotation

Andy Robertson has been a stalwart of the Liverpool team for many years, but under Arne Slot there has been more rotation in that position than we have seen under Jurgen Klopp’s reign.

Speaking about his left back, the Dutchman said: “IT It certainly has to do with Robbo’s lack of pre-season as well, which is why we started rotating a bit from the start – because if a player didn’t have pre-season there wasn’t time to get him into playing condition. three matches in a row.

“Because we tried to develop our players for this program and it was hard for him because he missed the preseason when the others were there as well.

“That’s his situation and I think it’s been good for him to play against Arsenal and now play against Brighton during the week, it gets him into the rhythm of playing twice a week.”

Talking about our former manager, he was also someone who talked a lot about the importance of the whole pre-season process to ensure a player is ready to come into the campaign once it starts.

The Scotland captain suffered multiple injuries last season and made the fewest appearances for the Reds in a single season, indicating his increasing fitness concerns.

This rotation then will allow the 30-year-old to be available for a larger part of the campaign so we can use him when necessary.

If we can manage its fitness and see it flying straight backwards, then it may turn out to be a cunning job on the part of the boss.
