The 24-year-old says the way his German manager reacted to the news was typical of his whole approach
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp offered a brilliant reaction when Andy Robertson told him that he had been named as Scotland captain.
The German dubbed his 24-year-old left-back “the real Braveheart”, referring to Mel Gibson’s Oscar-winning 1995 movie, in which he portrayed William Wallace, a Scots hero from the Wars of Independence, who won a famous 1298 victory over the English at the Battle of Stirling Bridge.
Robertson, who has won 26 caps for his country, is now Scotland’s most high-profile player and has earned the captaincy under Alex McLeish.
