Former Blackburn Rovers loanee, Tyler Morton, is hoping to continue his development for club and country after scoring on his England Under-21 debut.
The Liverpool loanee, who spent last season at Ewood Park, scored the opening goal for Lee Carsley's men in a 3-0 win over Northern Ireland. That was the 21-year-old's first for his country and made even sweeter by being at Goodison Park.
Morton hopes that he can start adding more goal contributions to his game with Hull City, admitting that was something lacking last season at Rovers.
"I'm hoping to add numbers to my game, I loved every minute of it," he told Hull Live. "Hopefully, it's the first of many, it was brilliant to get my first actual start.

"I think that's where I maybe lacked last season. It's an area for big improvement this season getting assists and the next goal.
"It was fantastic, it was a really proud moment to represent your country at any level. I think everyone who gets that opportunity should relish that moment and really take it. I feel like I have in this camp, I've been really happy with how it's gone.
"I'm now looking forward to getting back to club footy and properly showcasing what I've got. I've absolutely loved being at Hull City, it's filled me with confidence and I showed that. It's helped me so much, especially confidence-wise.
"The players I'm playing with at Hull week in and week out are top-quality players and it makes it that little bit easier when everyone around you is working so hard, it helps you so much."
Morton made 40 Championship appearances for Jon Dahl Tomasson's side in his first senior loan. His season was curtailed by a foot injury which ruled him out of the final games of the campaign.
Since joining Hull at the end of the summer window, he's made 10 appearances, assisting twice. Harvey Elliott, also formerly of Rovers, scored the other two goals in the straightforward in for the Young Lions.
