Robertson pays tribute to Liverpool staff after title triumph

“He (Slot) has done unbelievable – him and his staff,” Robertson, 31, said. “His backroom staff work so hard. The manager gets all the credit – and rightly so, he should – but his assistants, coaches and everyone behind him work so hard to make sure we are best prepared as possible going into every game.

“You’ve seen that – we’ve had slight changes that have hurt teams. He’s been unbelievable since he came in. He’s a winner and he made that clear on day one. We all got on board with that very easily and it was about getting in a rhythm and getting over the line.

“Thankfully we have done that. We are delighted for him, all of ourselves and everyone involved with the club. It means the world, it means everything to us.”

Slot added: “[I’m] incredibly proud, not only of the players but the people standing here – Sporting Directors, my staff members – we should give them a big round of applause.”
