That is absolutely horrible by Emre Can, he left one of the best players attacking set pieces in the Premier League alone in the box

Lovren at fault again. Firmino should clear. Emre Can just leaves his man. Awful.

Can’s critics went into hiding for a few week but began to resurface after the game.
Where’s the world class Emre Can from past 6 weeks? That’s right, he never existed. #LFC

Lucas Leiva and Emre Can have been absolutely pathetic today

Can fans were not standing for fellow supporters criticising their star man.
If you’re blaming Emre Can for that you began the game with an agenda

@Ole_LFC yes, but that is not Cans fault in the system we play

@DaveOCKOP Shut up with targeting of Emre. It’s Lovren and Firmino’s fault!
