After loan spells at Blackburn Rovers and Hull City in the past two seasons, 21-year-old midfielder Tyler Morton was a mainstay of the team in the 2022/23 season, making 46 appearances, and played 41 games last season, proving his ability in the Championship.
Under new manager Arne Slot, the young midfielder, who is aiming for a first-team spot, mentioned the changes under the new regime. He revealed that the new style of play is beginning to take hold and will continue to improve at an accelerated rate.
“It was brilliant to watch, I think the team did very well,”
“The style the gaffer is implementing is working and I think it worked today.”
“You can see it’s starting to click already and that’s a big compliment to the management team.”
“I think the players out there today were brilliant, a lot of standout players. I think it’s going to improve quickly and I think it was a very good step in a good direction.”
“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.”
