Dalglish says Tierney and Robertson are “highly-accomplished footballers”

Sir Kenny Dalglish believes Kieran Tierney and Andrew Robertson are “highly-accomplished footballers” for the Scotland national team. Despite Alex McLeish’s men coming unstuck to Israel in the Nations League, the Liverpool legend believes there’s a lot of talent in the squad.

Writing in the Sunday Post, Dalglish said: “We have good players. Andrew Robertson and Kieran Tierney are highly-accomplished footballers. But I accept that is about doing it on the park and producing the goods when it matters.”

Tierney rose through the youth ranks to the Celtic first-team in 2015 and has gone on to make 149 appearances in all competitions, scoring and creating 40 goals.
