Manchester United were completely swept aside by Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, and Jose Mourinho was stunned by the performance of Andy Robertson.
Liverpool cruised back to the top of the table on Sunday, romping past Manchester United courtesy of a brace from Xherdan Shaqiri.
While Shaqiri took all the headlines and Fabinho took all the plaudits, Robertson was once again one of the Reds’ standout performers.

The most impressive thing about the Scottish international is his consistency, as fans on Merseyside have just come to expect at least an eight out of ten performance every single week.
Perhaps his most valuable asset though is his engine, and Mourinho was stunned by the work the 24 year-old went through down that left flank.
“They are physical, they are objective, they play 200mph with the ball and without the ball,” the dejected Red Devils’ boss told reporters after the match.
“I am still tired just from looking at Robertson, he makes 100 metre sprints every minute,” he said. “Absolutely incredible.”
Robertson ability to impact the game at both ends of the pitch is what sets him apart from other left backs, and he made four key passes and 11 attempted crosses during Sunday’s win.
