Andy ROBERTSON: 2020/21

He needs a break! And hopefully Tsimikas can share a little if the load next season

Surely he isnā€™t required to join the training on July 12?

I expect heā€™ll be off at least 3 weeks so probably back a few days after July 12.

Thereā€™s likely an optimum rest period for professional athletes - longer than the optimum and heā€™ll start going backwards fitness wise.

Iā€™m not concerned either way about Robbo, and he should play less next season, unless we have another CB crisis. Tsimikas shoud be ready to play a fair bit more.

He 's a relentless monster, love him! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I donā€™t know if he had any time off after the PL ended and the beginning of the Scotland campaign but if not I hope they give him 4 weeks. He will be back on the 20th a week after the beginning of pre-season.
The Brazilians who I expect will go to the final of the Copa will be a bigger problem. That final will be on July 11 and if they need 3 weeks vacation after that ā€¦ I really hope they had time off between the PL end and the beginning of Copa.

Iā€™ll get nightmares thinking that we start the season with Adrian in goal.

Itā€™s actually two different energy drinks brands

All the players featuring in Euro and Copa along with Mane & Minamino went straight to NT camp after the season ended. I think I have read somewhere that Klopp will give the players on Euro/Copa duties 3-4 weeks break depending on how far their respective teams progress.

Even a four-week break will allow Robertson over three weeks to prepare for the new season.

We will miss

If that happens with our Brazil lads we are in in the shit.

Maybe they will get three weeks instead. In any case, we have to start the season without some of the regulars.

So letā€™s say a pray that Kelleher is fit and not on loan.

Well Euros final is the same day, though unless Portugal, Wales, England or Spain make it I canā€™t see it being much of an issue.

And I canā€™t.

Four years a red. Have we ever done a better bit of business?

Give me a team full of Robbos!

Hypia is probably the only player who has provided us more value for money in the transfer market.

Skippy was expensive for the time. Pretty sure a transfer record of some sort, maybe highest fee for a non-British player?

He was a record signing of some sort - canā€™t remember the full details but still our greatest ever player :wink:
