Supporters were aggrieved that the Scotsman missed out on a place in the FIFPro World XI and was not nominated for the Ballon d’Or despite an incredible 2018/19 campaign which saw him evolve into one of the world’s best fullbacks.
Supporters were delighted with Robertson’s achievement and made their feelings clear on social media.

From Hull to Liverpool..he was average as some people might said but now he is truly the best.
