Jurgen Klopp made a moment during his news conference to highlight Tyler Morton and Fabio Carvalho’s “fantastic” improvement when they were playing on loan at Hull.
Throughout the past year, Carvalho hasn’t had it easy. There were rumors of a fallout with Klopp after he departed for his loan at RB Leipzig.
He didn’t get much playing time at Leipzig, and the German team sent him back to Liverpool ahead of schedule. According to their sporting director, Rouven Schroder, he “didn’t want to face the competition.”
However, he has started to regain his standing with the supporters since leaving Leipzig, and Klopp is obviously pleased with the way he is doing at Hull.
After discussing a number of Championship teams, Klopp took a moment to remark, “I forgot Hull, by the way.” It’s encouraging to see that Tyler and Fabio are doing so well.
It’s so pleasant to witness Fabio exuding confidence once more. Both are fairly active players who play a lot of moments. It’s amazing how both have developed.
Carvalho has only made eight appearances for Hull, but in those eight games, he has scored three goals, the most recent of which was an incredible strike from outside the box.
His teammate Morton has been instrumental in Hull’s strong play and their current play-off position. He has scored a few goals of a similar nature this season.
Throughout the season, he has now started 25 league games for Hull and has excelled at keeping the ball for the Tigers.
He has an 86.9 percent ball retention percentage under intense duress as of the beginning of February, making him one of the players in the world with the highest statistical resistance to pressure.
Hull’s impressive performance and current play-off place can be attributed in large part to his comrade Morton. This season, he has scored a couple goals that are similar in character.
He has already started 25 league games for Hull this season and has been an excellent ball-keeper for the Tigers.
As of the beginning of February, he had one of the highest statistical resistances to pressure among players in the world, with an 86.9 percent ball retention percentage under extreme duress.
Although Morton’s percentage (86.9%) is the highest in the world, it is not much different from the top five, which include Darlington Nagbe (93.4%), Rodri (92.1%), Frenkie de Jong (91.8%), Toni Kroos (91.8%), and Granit Xhaka (91.6%).
He’s been absolutely outstanding, in fact one of the greatest players on the pitch most games, according to Ant Northgraves of the Hull and Back podcast, who spoke with This Is Anfield.
“Tyler seems to be having fun with football, and it shows as he grows more at ease with the players around him, forming alliances and making valuable contributions to our possession-based football strategy.”
