Tyler Morton is in line to start in the Champions League in the Champions League on Wednesday evening, but can still leave Anfield before the January Transfer Window Slams is closed.
The 22-year-old midfielder is limited to performances in the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup so far this season and admitted after the 4-0 victory of Liverpool on AcCRONSTON Stanley earlier this month that he was frustrated by his lack of playing time and that He may have to be “selfish” for the well -being of his career, whether it means a loan movement or a permanent transfer.
“Absolutely, it was difficult for me this season,” said Morton after the victory of Accrington. “I think I treated it very well. I kept my head low, given it everything every day. I think I deserve a chance. I got the chance today, hopefully people think I took it.
“I think I had a good game. It was exciting, if you don't get many opportunities, it's rare, you have to take them and I think I did it today. This month is clearly a big month for myself. It is clear. Is decision time.
“I think I'm ready to perform and be a real professional. Absolutely, I think I'm ready to go on now and be ready to go a step. If that's here or if if That is somewhere else, I have to be a bit selfish and go as I feel. “
Morton will make his first performance in Europe this season when Liverpool will compete against PSV Eindhoven in their last match in the renewed competition phase of the Champions League. The side of Arne Slot went directly to the round of 16, which means that the Dutchman decided to rest Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alisson, Alexis Mac Allister, Luis Diaz, Dominik Szoboszlai, Ibrahima Konate and Ryan Gravenberch.
“The players don't have to prove themselves,” said Slot about the players who came in the side. “We know what their quality is, but we could play many, many games and those we have left behind, but we have to think in the long term.
“If you look back on our season and the players playing all the time, we always try to give them a break after three, four or five weeks when it is the League Cup of FA Cup to help them get their freshness back.
“It took me a while to understand this new format, but I am now 100% sure that it doesn't matter if you end up first or second because we are guaranteed to play the team that is 15th, 16, 17 or 18th (in the latter 16), and then it's up to the draw.
“It has no impact on the competition table, but we will try to win. A wise man once told me that he has never seen anything good about losing a game. 13 or 14 players have usually shared the playing time, so so It will also be good to get other players in a game rhythm, because we need them when we start to get injuries.
