Tottenham: Early Andy Robertson warning signs emerge in latest World Cup disappointment
Tottenham Hotspur will be excited to see how Andy Robertson gets on in his debut season for the club, though if his latest performance for Scotland is anything to go by then they could be in trouble.
The Lilywhites recently announced the capture of the former Liverpool star on a free transfer, with Roberto De Zerbi keen to get the deal done.
Spurs haven't stopped there, as they've also added Marcos Senesi and Jan Paul van Hecke to their ranks in what could be a new-look defence starting on matchday one next season.
However, Robertson is 32, and after years of marauding down the left flank at Anfield, he may not have much left in the tank.
The left-back captained Scotland to a 1-0 loss against Morocco in the Tartan Army's second World Cup game on Friday night.
De Zerbi may now have some early concerns about the Scot after the statistics and reaction that have emerged following the full-time whistle.
Andy Robertson fails to inspire with Scotland performance
Robertson made his 96th appearance for Scotland against Morocco, though the game won't have gone the way he had hoped.
The former Liverpool man played the full 90 minutes, picked up a yellow card, and had a zero per cent ground duels win rate.
Robertson managed to make just two of his 10 attempted long balls successful and was dribbled past on one occasion.
The Scot contributed with just two defensive contributions, and 11 of his 62 attempted passes were uncompleted.
The Scotsman gave him a 6/10 rating, stating he was unable to get forward as much as he usually does, while talkSPORT and the BBC handed him the same score.
The Tartan Army remain on three points and currently sit third in their group, with Haiti bottom on zero points.
Haiti have a minus four goal difference, which boosts Scotland's already hopeful chances of progressing to the knockout stages by finishing third in the group at a minimum.
Roberto De Zerbi's playstyle may burn Robertson out
De Zerbi may have one of the most demanding playstyle's in the Premier League, and Tottenham fans are yet to see it in full effect.
The Italian's job was to steady the ship when he came in, as pre-season will be a chance to fully implement his philosophy.
From his time with Brighton and Marseille, it's clear to see he puts an emphasis on his full-backs to get forward as much as possible.
This may suit Robertson at first, but with his age, it could catch up to him.
He's managed to make 57 appearances for Liverpool in the Premier League over the last two seasons, but has only managed to register one assist.
There's a reason why the Reds weren't too upset to see him leave, excluding nostalgia, and De Zerbi may have early worries.
