'Talk sh*t & hope they buy it' – Robertson recalls selling lingerie before career breakthrough

Liverpool star Andy Robertson has revealed he was once forced to sell women's lingerie whilst working at a department store before his big break came in football, stating that he “just talked sh*t” and hoped customers would buy something.

Robertson's rise from the lower echelons of football is well documented, with the Glaswegian having been released by Celtic after being considered too small to make it at the highest level.

A move to amateur side Queen's Park followed, with his fine performances at Hampden then leading to being signed by Dundee, Hull City and eventually Liverpool.
