da apostebet: Performing the holding role at the base of midfield, the 24-year-old failed to make any positive impact as Liverpool fell short against relegation-threatened opposition in the Premier League and the FA Cup – evident enough from the fact they conceded four goals to sides who have averaged less than one per match in the top flight this term.
But pushed further forward upon the return of captain Jordan Henderson, Can showed against Huddersfield last night why he’s wanted so dearly by the Italian champions and so dearly by Klopp to stay on Merseyside, given the licence to venture forward and take risks in a box-to-box capacity.
In fact, it was Can who broke the deadlock after David Wagner’s side frustrated Liverpool for the opening 25 minutes, his shot struck cleanly and powerfully enough to give Jonas Lossl no chance after the ball took a damning deflection off a Terriers defender.
But that was by no means the end of Can’s offensive contributions; he also created the second-most chances of any Liverpool player, completed the most crosses and had a further two efforts at goal. The 6 foot midfielder – who Transfermarkt value at £25.2million – was purposeful but economical with the ball as well, completing 91% of his passes.
This is the Emre Can who can be such an asset at Anfield, but maybe the occasional misuse of him this season is part of the reason why the 23-cap international sees his future elsewhere. There’s something too ambitious about Can to ever be an out-and-out holding player; he needs the freedom to get forward and contribute to the attack.
