Andy Robertson is ready to play for Scotland against Greece in the Nations League. Robertson, 31, confirmed he is not thinking about retiring from international football. Instead, he aims to break Sir Kenny Dalglish's record for most appearances for Scotland. If Robertson plays tonight, it will be his 81st cap, moving him to third all-time in Scotland's history. He spoke with Dalglish recently about the record. "I'm coming for you," Robertson said, to which Dalglish replied that many have tried and failed to beat his record. Robertson made his debut for Scotland in 2014 under coach Gordon Strachan. He became captain in 2018. He has played in nearly every match since and loves representing his country. "I'm incredibly proud to get to 80," he said. Scotland needs to perform well against Greece to stay in the top tier of the Nations League. They finished third in their group, behind Portugal and Croatia, with seven points. Robertson noted the importance of the tournament and their recent comeback after a tough European Championship. He believes the team has rebounded well after previous disappointments and is focused on the future. "We are in a good place," he said, ready to take on Greece.
