Andy Robertson smashes FIFA 19 with latest Ultimate Team upgrade
Liverpool defender Andy Robertson has smashed FIFA 19 and has been given an Ultimate Team upgrade.
Robertson has had an excellent season so far and was particularly good against Fulham on Sunday, helping himself to an assist as the Reds won 2-0.
Alongside his defensive work, the Scotland international is leading the club with six assists in all competitions and is a constant menace down the left flank.
It was rumoured that the defender was due for a new contract at Anfield, but local press has dismissed those whisperings.

Now EA have recognised that top performance and upgraded Robertson on Ultimate Team as he was named as an in-form player.
The former Hull City man now boasts of several attributes that are in the 80s. With 86 for pace and 81 dribbling, Robertson will be an excellent attacking outlet in the virtual world as well. 81 defending and 76 physicality mean he’s no slouch stopping opposition forwards either.
That in-form is probably a long time coming, and the Scot has been so good that he’s kept an improved Alberto Moreno out the side for 11 Premier League games.
In fact, Moreno can’t see a way of getting back in the Liverpool team and is likely to leave after his contract expires at the end of the season.
While it’ll be annoying for the Reds to lose another prime aged player after Emre Can (the Spaniard is 26) for nothing, few will actually be sad at seeing Moreno leave in the summer.
The defender always had a mistake in his locker, even after offering improved performances during the first half of last season.

Liverpool had been poor prior to their win over Fulham, and Robertson showed good leadership by calling on his teammates to do better.
“We can perform a lot better than the two away games we’ve had, they’ve been off days and we need to look at that, of course we do,” the Echo reported that he said after the Red Star Belgrade loss.
