Andy Robertson admits he felt he had to solve all of Scotland’s problems when he was handed the captain’s armband.
The Liverpool left back was given the ultimate honour of leading his country five years ago. He’s about to embark on the latest qualifying campaign in dark blue when Cyprus visit Hampden on Saturday as Steve Clarke looks to make a major tournament return at Euro 2024, with Spain in Glasgow next midweek.
Robertson will lead out the hosts in their special 150th anniversary kit. It hasn’t taken that long, but Robertson feels more settled as Scotland skipper now and has a better grasp of what he should and shouldn’t be doing in order to help his teammates, rather than trying to be a one-man band and handle everything. "It took me a bit of time to get used to being able to put that armband on," the 29-year-old told the BBC.
