Will Kostas Tsimikas push Andy Robertson for the left-abet space this season?

Kostas Tsimikas became as soon as the first signing for Liverpool after the Premier League title get.

It became as soon as a logical signing that all fans had been tickled with because it would possibly per chance abet Andy Robertson’s workload as within the title winning season Liverpool did no longer maintain a senior abet-up left-abet.

Quick ahead a 365 days on and unfortunately he barely featured for Liverpool in any competitions.

Seven appearances which easiest accumulated 225 minutes and it became as soon as by no fault of his have.

The defensive hurt crisis that Liverpool had meant Robertson became as soon as trusted with the several makeshift centre half of pairings all the plan in which by the campaign after which also Tsimikas did maintain hurt issues with his have.

Furthermore with pre-season being ruined by Covid-19 he did no longer maintain a tubby settling in duration.

It is terribly different this 365 days despite the indisputable truth that.

Tsimikas has had a tubby pre-season under his belt this time spherical and has impressed at any time when he has played with his attacking positioning, link-up play and his crossing.

He looks to be like an real attacking risk which is what it’s good to be if you slay up a tubby-abet under Jurgen Klopp.

Liverpool’s manager has been as impressed as supporters staring at on as he stated: “Kostas became as soon as in actual fact, in actual fact staunch [against Bologna], I in actual fact maintain to command. That’s appropriate. It became as soon as factual 45 minutes, that is resplendent.”

So it begs the query, will Tsimikas be used ample to sigh Robertson for the left-abet feature.

Due to how ridiculously staunch Robertson has been since he has signed it’d be easy ample to factual teach no, Tsimikas will no longer.

On the other hand Robertson became as soon as if something else overworked final season as he played every Premier League sport after which also had the European Championships with Scotland.

So realistically Tsimikas would possibly per chance tranquil rep so much extra appearances than factual seven this season, which manner he can maintain of mission to galvanize and give Jurgen Klopp a choice headache.

It is wished in top teams; gamers pushing every other to be greater.

Tsimikas has shown his willingness to be a participant that Klopp can name upon this season.

The two-time Greek title winner stated: “I always strive to give a boost to my sport and to give my easiest to abet the group to get, to attain desires.

“Consistently these extra or much less games give me extra energy to proceed operating and to give a boost to and I’m extra than contented to abet my group get 1-0 even in a nice sport.

“I always give my easiest to be end to the group and at any time when my coach gives me the different to play, I’m always ready for that. Any different, I’m ready.”

With Robertson having to affix the pre-season camp unhurried due to the his involvements with Scotland, Tsimikas does maintain an real probability of starting the opening sport of the season towards Norwich City.

If Klopp does originate him, this would possibly occasionally give us all an real indication of how mighty he does intend to exhaust him this season that would possibly be fascinating as we rep to gaze him develop on the pitch and present his raw capacity that he has shown already within the Champions League.

If he would not originate then there would be no maintain to teach that Tsimikas obtained’t rep a look in.

As a result of sheer quantity of games Liverpool can maintain, he would possibly be eager mighty extra especially with a lawful pre-season under his belt.

He’ll be having a look to amass every different as a wrestle with Robertson will under no situations be easy and it would possibly also factual push the Scotsman to one other stage.
