Stevie-G hails Rob

- By DARREN JOHNSTONE

LIVERPOOL legend Steven Gerrard insists Scotland internatio­nalist Andy Robertson has already establishe­d him as a fans’ favourite at Anfield.

After making only three appearance­s in the opening 22 games of the season in the wake of his £10million switch from Hull City, Robertson has not looked back since replacing Alberto Moreno in December.

The former Dundee United and Queen’s Park player has now racked up a total of 21 starts for Jurgen Klopp’s side this season and will bid to add to his 20 internatio­nal caps in the friendlies against Costa Rica and Hungary.

Gerrard, a Liverpool academy coach, insists the supporters appreciate Robertson’s fullbloode­d style. He said: “He’s done terrifical­ly well since he’s come in and the fans have really taken to him.

“The fans love someone who gives 100 per cent, who comes in, who is a very humble kid and gives 110 per cent.”
