Liverpool manager Arne Slot faces a critical decision ahead of tonight’s Premier League match against Aston Villa, as discussions intensify over the form of left-back Andrew Robertson. Recent critiques, including those from club legend Jamie Carragher, suggest that Robertson’s performances have not met his usual high standards this season. Carragher has even recommended that Liverpool consider signing a new left-back in the upcoming transfer window to bolster their title ambitions. citeturn0news11
Liverpool’s defensive lineup is further complicated by the absence of Joe Gomez, who has been sidelined for several weeks due to a hamstring injury. This injury leaves the team with limited options in defense, making the decision regarding Robertson’s inclusion even more pivotal. citeturn0news10
