Andy Robertson doesn’t think Liverpool’s fans should be worried about their form until ChristmasThe fact that Liverpool are currently eighth in the Premier League table is a travesty. However, Robertson doesn’t think fans should be too hung up on the Reds’ form until Christmas, and then, if Liverpool are nowhere near the title race, that’s when they should worry.“Obviously, we’ve given ourselves a huge uphill battle, but I don’t think any of the teams will really look at the league table until we’re halfway through,” he said in quotes relayed by BBC Sport.“We have got to pick up points on a more consistent basis – then let’s see where we are after Christmas time or whatever.“I don’t think you can talk about the title this early on in the season, regardless of what position you’re in, but you need to then consistently start winning games again for that to even come into question.“It’s definitely not a question that’s getting spoken about in the changing room or anything.”Andy Robertson has found a new level to his game after Milos Kerkez joined LiverpoolLast season, it felt like Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas were way past their best.

Because, even though Tsimikas is doing well with AS Roma, it’s hard to see the Greek Scouser being handed a regular first team role for Liverpool upon his return.
