“Obviously, I've coped with it very well because I've got good people around me, but it's been very tough.

“When you're not playing, your confidence sort of gets shut down a little bit so it's nice to come back and play here (with England Under-21s).

“I think I've coped with it as well as I possibly could.



No matter if you're playing, if you're not playing, (they) put their arm around you always.

“I think that's the spirit of Liverpool and that's how it's always been.

I think it's been different from what I've had in the past few seasons.

“I think playing time was limited but I think I've still improved and I've still worked hard to be here now and I'm happy I’m here.

“I've still developed and I still feel really sharp and really ready to go (at the Under-21s European Championships).”

Morton is one of three Liverpool players included in Lee Carsley’s squad along with Harvey Elliott and Jarell Quansah.

And yes, it's been a learning season.

“I think you've got to have these types of seasons where you're trying to learn and I think it's been massive for us.

“Obviously going out on loan myself, it's hard having three different managers in three different years so it's different but I'm used to it.

“He's (Slot) a very good manager.

Tactics wise he's so on it and it's unbelievable but it's been good.

“He's asked me just to be myself and to play the way he likes to play with his teams and I think I've done that when I played so it's been a good season.

“I think I'm a ball-playing midfielder so I like to pass the ball, I like to move it, I like to dictate the game.

It makes you stronger.

“I think I've got a lot to add to my game and I feel like I am a quick learner and I do take things in my stride so I think it's working nicely.”

While Morton has not played as much as he would have liked under Slot this season, he was still proud to be part of the squad that won the Premier League title.

And having spent the past two seasons on loan at Blackburn Rovers and Hull City, it also meant a lot to the 22-year-old to represent Liverpool at Anfield once again.

“Definitely winning the Premier League (was the highlight),” he said.
