Andy Robertson did not get on the pitch for his final away day as a Liverpool player during Friday night’s embarrassing defeat against Aston Villa.Villa Park was the backdrop for one of the left-back’s most memorable moments as a Red, when he began the comeback which turned the tide on the 2019/20 title race.Robertson would have been hoping to get on for one last dance in front of the travelling Kop, but with Liverpool struggling and Arne Slot making some attacking changes, it was not to be.

As he prepares to depart, Friday night was just one more worrying sign that those he leaves behind do not hold themselves to the same standard.
