I love Emre Can so much. But why in Gods name is he playing RB?

Don't understand why we put Johnson and Emre Can out of position, when we can have both in position if we play Moreno.

Really looking forward to seeing Emre Can in his natural midfield role next season, mostly deputised okay in defence but very wasted there.

I really do like Emre Can, sign a RCB in the transfer window and let the lad have a wonder into the Stevie role.

Can joined Liverpool as a central midfielder from Bayer Leverkusen on a £9.75 million move in the summer but has played most of the season as a defender in Reds boss Brendan Rodgers back-three.
