Andy Robertson will surely stay at Liverpool after outstanding stats emerge vs Qarabag
Liverpool cruised to a simple 6-0 victory against Qarabag on Wednesday as they avoided the Champions League playoff spots with a stunning win.
The Reds dominated from start to finish as they quickly put their 3-2 defeat against Bournemouth behind them.
It was a great display, with many players on top form at Anfield under the lights.
Florian Wirtz was highly praised by Steven Gerrard as he continues to find his feet in England.
However, one player who may have gone under the radar was Andy Robertson, who once again showed the quality he possesses.
Andy Robertson showed his quality against Qarabag
In recent weeks, Robertson has been linked with a Liverpool exit.
The full-back is out of contract in the summer, and with Milos Kerkez holding down the left-back spot, his starts have been limited.
Therefore, Tottenham have been looking at Robertson. However, after his performance against Qarabag, a sale should be out of the question.
According to Fotmob on 28 January, the defender created an astonishing seven chances, had two shots, and completed five crosses on top of his defensive duties.

| Minutes | 90 |
| Chances created | 7 |
| Shots | 2 |
| Crosses completed | 5 |
| Tackles | 1 |
| Interceptions | 2 |
As a result, it is clear that Robertson is still capable of delivering on the highest stage when required.
Therefore, a sale should now be ruled out entirely, especially with Tottenham potentially being a rival in the Champions League.
Hopefully, after this performance, Slot will see sense and ensure Robertson stays at Anfield past the winter window.
What did Slot say about the Qarabag win?
Slot was obviously very pleased to have beaten Qarabag.
It was a step in the right direction for Liverpool, who could have fallen further after the Bournemouth defeat.
Instead, they showed why they are the Premier League champions, and why they should still be considered a major contender to win the Champions League this season.
On top of this, the fact that they have gone straight into the round of 16 and avoided the playoffs will help with their schedule going forward into the second half of the campaign.

Speaking after the match to UEFA on 28 January, Slot expressed his delight with the performance, especially with the current injuries the Merseyside club are facing.
He said: “Great result and a good performance as well. It took another player. When I said yesterday or two days ago, maybe because we won the league because we went out, I meant it because we could play with the best team.
“We have a lot of muscle injuries. We are doing a double program with a lot of players who aren’t used to that.”
