Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was full of praise for youngster Tyler Morton.

The youth star got his chance in the Carabao Cup fourth round win over Preston North End on Wednesday.

As the Reds claimed a 2-0 away win to progress to the fifth round, thanks to goals from Takumi Minamino and Divock Origi, Klopp had special praise for Morton post-game.

He said, per the club's website: "Tyler is obviously a real talent, a real smart footballer. You can see this.

"His natural movements, natural positions, are really good, so he is a real football-smart boy and the technique is really good.

"Now we have to make sure we help him with getting a body for football – he is not too small and not too skinny, but there is still a little bit to come and we have to make him ready for all that. It was a very positive impact again tonight."
