Emre Can – 6/10
Did better when got into the CDM position, but regardless he was not so much visible in midfield most of the time.

Mignolet was great and sharp
Emre can with much improved performance

Midfield was terrible again. Henderson making wrong pass, Wijnaldum losing the ball a lot and Emre Can being anonymous.

Some fans believe Emre Can should replace Jordan Henderson as Liverpool’s defensive midfielder.
Need Van Dijk or a defender replace Lovren ASAP, had enough of him. Emre Can takes it for me in the number 6 position over Henderson

Klopp’s side host Crystal Palace at Anfield in their next Premier League fixture on August 19. The Reds were held to a 3-3 draw by Watford FC last week.
Can has under 12 months remaining on his current contract with Liverpool. The 23-year-old could leave Liverpool for free next summer if he doesn’t strike a new deal with the Merseyside based club.
