He's had to make do with limited minutes this season following the arrival of Kerkez.Robertson's contract was expiring this summer and it has been confirmed he'll move on - with Kerkez claiming Liverpool will be losing the best player to ever play in his position in the Premier League era.He told ESPN when asked about Robertson: "He really is a legend.



I said it, and I believe that because of what a player he is, how much energy he has, how much running and assisting. Robertson could've kicked up a fuss but the Hungarian praised the way he dealt with the setback and was always there to offer advice.He claimed: "Robbo's a big player who did a lot of stuff for the club.

I came in, and he took me under his wing and helped me a lot."He gave me advice along the way. I'm going to give my best."Robertson claimed earlier this season that he knew the day would come where the club had to start thinking about life beyond him, especially with the Scot in his 30s, but insisted he had nothing to prove in a Liverpool shirt.He said: "It is what it is, Milos is a fantastic left-back, had an unbelievable season last season at Bournemouth and has taken a little bit of time to settle in to a big club, which everyone does.
