Tyler Morton has been a revelation ever since he joined Lyon in the summer.Things are simply not going right for the Reds right now for one reason or another, so Arne Slot has plenty of problems to sort out.Despite all his positives, the Dutchman’s decision making has been questioned many times already this season, with fans starting to get a little frustrated.Join our newsletter for news & smart analysis. Another individual who felt similar emotions since Slot arrived was midfielder Morton, with the Englishman feeling that he was not given a fair crack of the whip.The in-form Lyon star has also spoken recently about how he felt during his last year at Liverpool, and it might just act as a warning sign to one current Reds player in particular.

When I got my opportunity in the cup, I felt like I played well.
That’s all I could say.”READ MORE: Gary Lineker believes Liverpool star will be fuming after Arne Slot ‘statement’ vs Man UnitedChiesa too has shone in the cup and has played well when getting the opportunity, indicating that he may have to do the same to kick on in his career like Morton has.Federico Chiesa needs to leave in January if things do not improveBetween now and the new year is a vital time for Chiesa as, in theory, he should be an essential player for Liverpool during this period.Not only have his performances warranted more opportunities, but due to Mohamed Salah going to AFCON, that right wing spot should be his.As well as this, the Reds will have so many fixtures that he really could get a good run of games under his belt and be their most important attacker.However, if Slot refuses to give him these chances, just like he did with Morton, then he simply must leave in January for the sake of his career.As much as it would pain Liverpool fans, they will surely understand that given he is only 27 and it is a World Cup year, he will feel he can give a lot more than he is being allowed to right now.
