Andy Robertson played his final Merseyside derby for Liverpool, helping the Reds secure a 2-1 win against Everton.
The Scotland international is due to depart Anfield at the end of the season when his contract expires.
It’s believed that Tottenham are first in line to pick up the veteran left-back on a free transfer, presuming they manage to avoid relegation from the Premier League.
There’ll be plenty of opportunities for both Robertson and Mo Salah to share heartfelt goodbyes with the Anfield faithful ahead of the summer.
Of course, in a tie of such significance, you can understand why both would be more than happy to soak up the adulation from their adoring fans

The Scot, however, required a little bit more in the way of persuading to take a moment entirely to himself!
With some forceful encouragement from Ibrahima Konate and Curtis Jones, the 32-year-old was shoved to the front of the queue to take some well-earned applause from our travelling Reds.

While we appreciate the time may be right for the fullback to move on to pastures new, there’s no telling that Liverpool will miss Robertson next season.
The ex-Hull City defender has given everything to the shirt, playing a vital role in both Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot’s title-winning sides.
He was quietly impressive yet again at the Hill Dickinson, registering a 7.2/10 rating (according to Fotmob) after Slot favoured him over Milos Kerkez in the starting-XI.

Ultimately, we’d have much preferred to see Andy Robertson handed another year on his contract to remain as a valuable squad player.
But we can appreciate that he wants to enjoy regular minutes in the Premier League for a little while longer.
We’re going to miss him.

As usual this website looks for positives when there are none. Totally outplayed, outfought by a poor Everton team, we were lucky to get a draw.
Wirtz, isak missing in action, the funny part Salah scores again. Yet the clueless slot didn’t play him against PSG when we were chasing two goals,. You couldn’t make it up. What kind of manager drops your biggest goal threat, your biggest assists maker.
When you’re playing against PSG two nil down. Arne slot is out of his depth. Again today, outplayed by Everton.
Carry on , as we continue to decline under charlatan owners FSG.
”Totally outplayed, outfought by a poor Everton team, we were lucky to get a draw.” But we won 2-1?
Such optimism. With fans like you, who needs detractors.
