Liverpool fans on social media seemed to be pleased with Can’s display in his new position.
There appeared to be a lot of Liverpool fans calling for Can to be played in Jordan Henderson’s role and for the captain to be dropped.
What do you think?
Emre Can looked completely comfortable in the no.6 role. Know many would prefer him here to the skipper. #MARLIV

Emre Can should always be our number 6 instead of Henderson.

Is there a clear answer to why Emre Can is leaving and not Jordan Henderson

@TheRedmenTV emre can deserves a place over Henderson, he offers so much more going forward and defensively. No debate is needed.

Emre in the 6 is so much better than Henderson. Everything is locked down & still drives forward and can pick out a pass thats not backwards

Well that settles that.
Can I just say that Emre is not shit, Henderson is not shit, Milner is not shit, wijnaldum is not shit…..

Should Can play as a defensive midfielder?
Milner better than Hendo.
Emre can always better in defensive midfield.Front three on fire.

Or did Can look better because of the level of his opposition?
Against Maribor? Yes, against better teams? Not so much.

That’s because he was up against a very poor team. Needs to deliver in the big games too

Can needs to work on his consistency, it is constantly raised as a concern among Liverpool fans. He also needs to sign a new contract deal before January or could end up leaving on a free transfer.
Emre can is alarmingly inconsistent.

He. Isn’t. Consistent.
