Robertson: “We don’t deserve anything yet”

Andy Robertson insists Liverpool have earned nothing yet, with the defender brushing off claims that the Reds deserve a trophy for their efforts this season.

But Robertson, who has excelled again for Liverpool this season, says his side aren’t heading into the final thinking it’s already in the bag.

“I’ve heard a few people say that, but for me we don’t deserve anything yet,” he said.

“The Premier League shows that. A lot of people would say 97 points deserves the Premier League, but it didn’t because Manchester City got 98. They were that little bit better than us in the end.

“We deserve nothing, only what we put into the game and what we get out. If we have 100 per cent effort, and have a good game, play to our best, then we’ll deserve it.

“But we aren’t going into the game thinking we deserve it because we’ve had a good season and got 97 points. Never. That’d be stupid of us.”

He added: “I can only speak personally, but I think last year we were relaxed. That’s the kind of squad we have, nothing fazes us. We knew what we were up against last season and we know what we’re up against this season.

“Both teams have got big-game experience, which can help. But last season I don’t think has any bearing on this. It’s a different challenge, a different team, different set-up. Maybe we’ll know more when the game kicks off and we can look back and say it made a difference, but right now it doesn’t feel that way.”
