The accolades keep coming for Andy Robertson as he has been voted into the UEFA fans’ Team of the Year for 2019.
The Scotland captain helped the Reds on their way to a Champions League final win over Tottenham. Robertson played a key part in that game as Jurgen Klopp’s men won 2-0.

He is one of five Liverpool players to be named in this XI. Others include defensive partners in Allison, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil Van Dijk and attacking sensation Sadio Mane.
Robertson’s in this UEFA XI after over two million fans cast their vote for who should be in this team. Voting took place over a six-week period and Scotland’s captain won the left-back berth.
He’s one of seven players making their debuts in the team, with star-studded names like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo joining Robertson in this XI.

In 2019 Robertson made 59 appearances, keeping a pretty impressive 22 clean sheets. He also provided 13 assists in all competitions last season, which isn’t too bad for a full-back.
