Liverpool have ‘no concerns’ about fan unrest ahead of Galatasaray clash | OneFootball

Liverpool defender Andy Robertson believes the “fans will be right behind us” when they take on Galatasaray in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night. 

The Reds need to overturn a one-goal deficit after losing the first leg of the last-16 tie in Istanbul last week, the second time the Turkish outfit has beaten them 1-0 this season.

They followed up the defeat with a disappointing 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday, which was met by boos from a home crowd frustrated by the team’s inconsistency this season.

Asked about the restlessness among supporters at Tuesday’s pre-match press conference, Robertson responded: “I don’t think we have concerns about that. The thing that was most disappointing was that our fans left unhappy.

“Our aim is always to be sending our fans home happy. That gives you the biggest satisfaction, that they were happy with what they have seen on the pitch.

“Sunday they weren’t happy and neither were we, but in terms of tomorrow night it doesn’t worry me at all because at Anfield, under the lights, with our fans in that stadium; they have been here before and they will be here many, many times in the future as well.
