Looks a bargain.

Andy Robertson's move to Liverpool was not even in the top three pieces of business pulled off by the Reds over the summer. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's deadline day switch, Mo Salah's arrival and the agreement to bring in Naby Keita next season made far more headlines than Robertson's £10 million transfer from Hull. Most supporters felt the left back would be no more than a squad player but he's quickly convincing them that he's ready for a regular starting spot. https://www.instagram.com/p/BW0EtFxD2fM/ Robertson started for Scotland on Friday night in their crucial World Cup Qualifier victory in Lithuania and he put breathing space between the sides with a spectacular goal on the half hour mark. Five minutes after Stuart Armstrong opened the scoring, Robertson claimed possession deep in his own half courtesy of a throw-out from goalkeeper Craig Gordon. Robertson then proceeded to feed teammate Matthew Phillips before busting a gut to get into the box. James Forrest was aware of Robertson's presence on the edge of the area and he duly teed him up to curl home a sumptuous finish to make the score 2-0. And once Liverpool fans found out just what the 23-year-old was capable of, they had a new player to get excited about. https://twitter.com/LfcNo10/status/903702844485890053 https://twitter.com/TheAnfieldWrap/status/903703279175168001 https://twitter.com/WalkOnWalkOn/status/903699952601354241 https://twitter.com/TSoIstanbul/status/903699943994642432 https://twitter.com/CharWebster7/status/903699694190284804 https://twitter.com/samuellejones/status/903699496823119872 https://twitter.com/AdamEl92/status/903699464837365765 https://twitter.com/DaveD0106/status/903698405607829513 https://twitter.com/AbdulHa24441349/status/903706102868697088 https://twitter.com/LfcNo10/status/903701318220472320
