He totalled 48 games during 2018-19 as the Reds tallied 97 points in the league and were pipped to the title but returned to the European Cup showpiece and this time won it, defeating Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 in Madrid.
Robertson continued to be integral in the next campaign, which saw Klopp’s team power to a long-awaited championship triumph, ending the club’s 30-year wait for a league title by racking up 99 points.
UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup medals were claimed in between, and after a challenging 2020-21 season he and the squad were back on the trophy charge in 2021-22.
Robertson appeared in 47 matches of an eventual quadruple attempt, adding Carabao Cup and Emirates FA Cup wins to his CV before Liverpool finished runners-up in the league and Champions League.
He moved past 50 assists for the club that season and then added 11 more despite the Reds’ tricky 2022-23 campaign, in which he also surpassed 250 appearances overall.
A second League Cup success of his career followed in 2024 and Robertson recovered from a summer injury to remain a regular for Arne Slot when he was appointed head coach to replace Klopp ahead of the next term.
It would prove to be another special one.
The Scot was involved in 33 of Liverpool’s 38 league games across 2024-25 as they built up an unassailable lead of the Premier League and clinched the trophy with four matches to spare last April.
After the 2019-20 title had been won and lifted behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Robertson was able to relish a new experience: celebrating a championship with supporters in attendance.
“It was quite unique the way we did it (in 2020),” he said after a 5-1 home victory over Spurs confirmed Slot’s side as champions for last season and prompted pure joy. “We enjoyed it, of course we did.
“But you can’t beat what we experienced today and how we went to the ground and the fans during and after the game. Nothing quite compares to that and I’m glad we got to experience it that way as well.”
