'It's going to happen' - Liverpool midfielder Tyler Morton makes honest Blackburn admission

On loan Liverpool youngster Tyler Morton has admitted to being frustrated at spending time on the bench for Blackburn Rovers in recent weeks.

But the Wirral-born midfielder is determined to play a leading role for Jon Dahl Tomasson's side during the Championship season's run-in with a play-off spot firmly in their sights.

Rovers are currently fifth in the table, but in recent weeks Morton has found himself as a substitute with boss Tomasson admitting that his young loan star was overused earlier in the season leading to fatigue. But with John Buckley out for the rest of the season, the 20-year-old can now expect a prolonged run in the starting XI as the Lancashire club keeps their Premier League promotion push on track.
