Andy Robertson scored and captained Liverpool to an impressive 3-1 come-from-behind victory at Wolves
On Tuesday, the left-back assisted two England players for goals – one agonisingly, one amusingly – as Scotland slipped to a 3-1 defeat against the Auld Enemy at Hampden.
While the absence of Alexander-Arnold could have seen a switch to a more conventional 4-3-3 formation, which plays more to Robertson’s strengths, the Reds stuck to the box-midfield approach with Joe Gomez the unlikely hybrid right-back. With Liverpool having lost only two of 22 matches since that chastening 3-0 reverse in February, this was always going to be a barometer of their strong start to the season not least as, to Klopp’s eternal chagrin, it was another early kick-off following an international break.
But tactical and personnel tweaks during the break proved hugely effective and benefited Robertson in particular. Now with the lively Luis Diaz busying the Wolves rearguard and Liverpool employing an effective 4-4-2 formation, the Scot began to impose himself going forward.
