Dylan Borso's energetic performances have become central to Greenock Morton's recent resurgence in the Scottish Championship. The American loanee from Chicago Fire has played a significant part in the club's three successive league victories, revitalising their form after a slow start to the season.

Borso has not yet scored a goal for Morton, but his contributions in creating opportunities for teammates like Michael Garrity and Callum Sandilands have been important. His pressing, running power and movement cause consistent problems for opposition defences. Manager Gary Miller believes the player is beginning to show his true potential.

"I feel for Dylan a wee bit because he's probably overdue a goal, to be honest," Miller said. "He does work hard and he is a nuisance. He causes teams issues with his pressing, his running and his running power."

Borso, initially used as a substitute, has grown into a starting role. His stamina notably improves from the 55th minute onwards, making him a great foil for Morton's other attacking players. This tireless work has been a factor in the team's improved results, which have lifted them to ninth in the Championship table with 10 points from 12 games.

Miller demands response after cup shock

The manager is now demanding an immediate reaction following Morton's midweek exit from the KDM Evolution Trophy, where they were stunned by League Two side Kelty Hearts. Miller wants his squad to swiftly put that disappointment behind them and focus on the league campaign, where their recent form reads four wins from their last five matches.

Cappielow return and squad depth

Attention turns to the upcoming fixture away to fifth-placed Livingston on 14 November. The match comes amid a busy schedule where squad depth is key, and it follows a special Cappielow return for club legends who will be presented with awards. The return of Harry Cochrane from injury also provides a timely boost to Miller's options as they prepare for the trip to the Tony Macaroni Arena.

Morton's last result was a 4-3 victory over Stenhousemuir, part of a WLWWW sequence in their last five outings. They now face a Livingston side sitting four places and several points above them in the standings.
