“I wasn’t fantastic today, I was a bit disappointed with that.”
He started the next two league games, but was left out at Anfield, and though he started three games on the spin in April, at Middlesbrough, Everton and at home to Manchester United, he has been on the bench for the last two matches.

“That’s hard to do nowadays, to try and get players in early on is very difficult.
“Robbie came in in January, and I think he needs a pre-season with us to really get how we work and get used to the players.

He added: “It’s strange how players adapt, sometimes they just seem to get it and understand the way the team works very quickly, and that can often be done on the training pitch.
“They get used to the players around them, the different skillsets and understand how they play.

“For the rest it’s the shape, the tactical organisation and understanding of how the team works that can take layers from training and games.”
