Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho has singled out Liverpool left-back, Andrew Robertson for praise after his side were defeated 3-1 at Ansfield. Liverpool ran out 3-1 winners in the big game. It was goals from Sadio Mane and Xherdan Shaqiri that finished United off at Anfield. However, Mourinho made special mention of Robertson after the game.
