Andy Robertson Admits Liverpool Need to Be 'Firing' for Rigorous Fixture Schedule

Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson admits his side need to get themselves firing for what will be a busy few weeks, as the Reds prepare for their defence of the Champions League just three days after overcoming Newcastle at Anfield.

Robertson's side made five wins from five in the league, and despite contesting the Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup in that time, their schedule so far has been far removed from what they experienced at the tail end of last season - when their title race was punctuated with a run all the way in Europe.

That luxury won't last, however, as they have six games in three weeks between now and the international break in early October, with Champions League action returning along with an EFL Cup tie at MK Dons.
