The Anfield icon sees a bright future in Merseyside for one of the nation's top talents.
And he believes his Liverpool team-mate Ben Doak can follow his lead. Robertson’s story, coming from humble beginnings at Queen’s Park is well documented, but Dalglish says it’s inspirational to the group as he prepares to captain his nation against Spain. Dalglish said: “There is nobody thinking they are better than they are and Andy is a good example of that. He is a great icon for players to look at and see what you can achieve.
Dalglish, who scored his last-ever and famous international goal against tomorrow night’s opponents, believes the bulk of the hard qualification yards are covered. But he’s convinced they can finish the job against the group’s top seeds due to the excellent ability and attitude of the manager and his troops.
“The job that Steve has done by directing and guiding them has been fantastic. They are really mature. They are all level-headed, there’s not arrogance. They’ve got a great atmosphere within the dressing room and that helps. “Also, when they go to Cyprus, when you would say you fancy your chances against them, but maybe something could go wrong as well, you don’t think like that now. That’s nice. They are professional in what they are doing.
“You looked at the group and thought oh jeez, especially with Norway having Erling Haaland and Spain just being Spain. But we have won in Norway and beat Spain. That is no mean feat.”
