Jamie Carragher didn’t hold back in criticizing Andy Robertson after a dismal first-half display from Liverpool in their 3-0 loss to Fulham on Saturday.
Robertson, reportedly earning £160,000 a week, played a central role in Fulham’s opening goal. The Scotland international made a puzzling decision, attempting a lofted cross-field pass deep inside Liverpool’s defensive third—right into heavy Fulham pressure. The ball ended up leading directly to Alex Iwobi’s opener.
Carragher, speaking on *Sky Sports*, was baffled by the error:
**“What a mess! That’s such a poor pass from someone of Robertson’s quality,”** he said. **“He then fails to win the header and it deflects off him into the goal.”**
Despite a season of mixed form, this particular moment left fans and pundits alike scratching their heads.
**Liverpool Looking to the Future**
While Robertson isn’t expected to be moved on this summer, there’s growing speculation that Arne Slot may no longer view the 31-year-old as Liverpool’s long-term first-choice left-back. With strong links to Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez, the club is clearly eyeing reinforcements in that position.
That said, Robertson still brings experience and leadership, and it’s more likely that Kostas Tsimikas will be the one to make way.
**Time for Tough Calls**
As Liverpool prepares for what could be a title-winning season, some difficult decisions may lie ahead. Even beloved veterans might face the chop if the club wants to evolve and maintain its place at the top.
