Emre Can made his first pre-season appearance for Liverpool yesterday but was unable to prevent a 2-1 defeat against Roma.
We took a look at how fans reacted to his display against the Italian giants yesterday.
Can got stuck in pretty early almost coming to blows with Roma’s Strootman and that went down pretty well with the Reds faithful.
A friendly in pre season and Emre Can wants to knock Strootmans head off. Love it. Give him the armband now.

There were more calls for Can to become the next Liverpool captain.

Can did not exactly put on a memorable performance against Roma but it was his first game back so he can perhaps be forgiven.

Can was criticised for his display but most fans were pretty understanding as to why he put on a subpar performance.
Emre Can's only had a few training sessions, isn't close to match fitness. If you are moaning about Can, you are a tit

In fact some fans were upset that Can was getting so much stick and felt he did not deserve it.
Why are people writing off Emre Can after one half of pre season football, this fanbase does my tits in sometimes

Love Emre Can, just at times can be a bit frustrating. Brilliant player though.
