The left back was the player chosen by the Reds for the Champions League press conference ahead of tomorrow's crucial quarter-final against Manchester City.
Robertson followed boss Jurgen Klopp to meet the media and his manager delivered a brilliant one-liner before his arrival.
The German previously issued a playful dig at the former Dundee United star following the 5-0 win against Porto, when he quipped his rampaging full back had left his crossing ability in Scotland.
This time he joked that a club legend would be needed to help the press pack understand Robertson's Glasgow accent.
The Liverpool boss made the announcement just before the defender took to his seat.
Klopp quipped: "Kenny Dalglish will be the intepreter."
Meanwhile, Robertson is looking to make a big impact against Pep Guardiola's all-conquering side when they face City in the crunch clash at Anfield tomorrow.
He said: "If there’s a chance to go forward I’ll be getting forward to attack. Sadio (Mane) and I will be on that side and hopefully we’ll cause them problems. Hopefully we’ll get back into our formation quite quickly if we break down but we’re at home and we need to create chances.
"We want to get the fans behind us and we can only do that by getting forward and creating chances. If I can help do that by getting forward then that’s what I’ll do.
"We believe we’re getting better defensively. City have conceded goals this season that don’t get highlighted. We conceded a goal Saturday and there was probably more than one mistake in it but we won the game. If we win these two games we’re through to the semi-final."
