Can’s stats made impressive reading, he really got stuck in so to say.

Easy mistake to make.
Wijnaldum has the ball, Martin Tyler says ‘and here’s Emre Can’ ???

And to think Can could be leaving! the midfielder of Turkish origin will be a free agent at the end of the season unless he signs a new deal.
Yes!!!? We need to keep Emre Can !!! ??#LFC #LIVMCI

Would it really be in his best interests to join Juventus? at Liverpool Can is a first-team player under the stewardship of Klopp.
Come On Can… Stay Back! Wht Is Juve? A Team that is guilty of match fixing…

I really hope Emre Can stays at Liverpool so they can challenge City next season

Fun fact of the day.
Can’s family are originally from Afyon in Turkey while City star Ilkay Gundogan’s roots are in Balikesir which is also in Western Turkey.
