Blackburn boss Tomasson happy with Liverpool midfielder Morton: He's becoming important:

Blackburn Rovers boss Jon Dahl Tomasson is delighted with the form of Tyler Morton.

The midfielder is on a season-long loan from Liverpool.

Often playing in the deeper midfield positions in a 4-2-3-1 formation, Morton's tough-tackling and range of passing have caught the eye. In 33 appearances across all competitions, Morton has made 1.5 tackles per game and 1.3 key passes per game.

“You can see he's been in a good school, the Liverpool school, the Jurgen Klopp school – you can see that," Tomasson said .

“He is enjoying life here at Rovers, I like to see the boy because he's getting important".
