One Liverpool youngster in particular just put in a very impressive display while on international duty.

Arne Slot has utilised the squad Jurgen Klopp left him brilliantly so far this season. Federico Chiesa has yet to play, and Giorgi Mamardashvili is still at Valencia.

Liverpool have a number of impressive young talents coming through the ranks, with the likes of Jarell Quansah and Conor Bradley impressing last season.

And, there are plenty more waiting in the wings as Tyler Morton, Trey Nyoni, Lewis Koumas, Nathan Danns and James McConnell are all pushing for first-team action in the not so distant future.

One of these players in particular impressed on international duty last night…

Tyler Morton steals the show on international duty in England Under-21s vs Austria Under-21s

Interestingly, it appears as if Tyler Morton is in the plans of Arne Slot as he rejected a loan offer for the midfielder in the last week of the transfer window.

Xabi Alonso even asked to Morton on loan in the summer, which goes to show how highly-rated he is.

England Under-21s won 4-1 over Austria Under-21s last night and Tyler Morton was one of the stars of the show.

He was subbed off in the 72nd minute and achieved a 7.5 rating. Morton had 69 touches, an 88% passing accuracy, made three key passes, one big chance created, four duels won and two tackles (as per SofaScore).

What has Tyler Morton had to say about Arne Slot?

Tyler Morton, who is valued at £20 million, is big on Arne Slot and the way he plays.

“He loves Total Football. He’s come in and it’s a style a lot of players love. If you don’t love the style he plays, you shouldn’t be a footballer really!

“It’s Total Football and it’s every midfielder’s dream. You could see it today in the triangles that were played; he’s big on triangles and they were [working] today.

“I thought it was brilliant, I thought we dominated and against a very good Arsenal side it was a great display. I’m definitely ready [for the new season].

“I think we’ve been ready for a few weeks now because we came in so early. I’m grateful for it because we’re all ready and we all look very fit.

“Everyone is working so hard in training; you’ve got to because the demands are so high, especially at this club.

I’ve come back and I feel in the best shape I’ve been in, especially physically. I’ve just got to keep working hard, keep going and hopefully it’ll take me into a good place.”
