KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Can he be the boss?

I haven't seen anything mentioned But i have been impressed with Can recently. He has been bossing the midfield of late, out power, pacing and passing the other teams and even our so called captain! I've been really impressed and really starting to show his talent i hope he continues and i haven't jinxed him!

Yes that side of his game had been good be he isn't very creative and hardly ever scores.

His play going forward has really improved, starting to see some good powerful runs and forward passing too. Maybe this is Klopp's methods starting to kick in. Is it just me or has there been a major improvement in Lallana too?

He has been doing very well but why use it to disparage Hendo.. this anti-hendo agenda on here is ridiculous .. I don't get it at all...and I was one of his loudest critics his first season. Henderson is very very very important for us going forward.Like heart beat important.Like club legend important.Like setting standards important. Can has really improved but he still slips into laziness sometimes, Henderson never ever does and he will be the one doing it for us the next decade

lol good one

Yes lallana has made massive improvements so has allan! ive been impressed with all off our midfield (including firminho and coutinho) I have not been impressed with Daniel Sturridge im not sure if its down to fitness or commitment but he hasnt really been involved i think we played better with origi upfront

I agree partially with EMP, the anti hendo agenda is ridiculous a lot of people are guilty of jumping on the back of it, myself included sometimes. He is giving his all, he is contributing to the side both ends of the pitch. I don't have problems with people criticizing him, but don't go overboard and say unhelpful things like he shouldn't be captain, because he gives his all, which is all that can be asked for the time being.

As for Can, yes the 22 year old german is progressing well, but isn't the full package, is he either a defensive ball playing midfield type playmaker, not really. the defensive enforcer we need who makes a lot of tackles in and around the midfield area, nope and partly averages 2.8 tackles per game. is he a front foot playmaker, not completely, no assist this season, and 2 goals suggests not, but he has played really well, and people are starting to see him being more direct running with the ball and taking away shots at goal. Basically I wouldn't call him the boss of our midfield or a potential sole leader/boss, I'd just call him one of two midfielders who plays well

Not one person has slagged Hendo at all in this thread - read it through guys.

YOLO?
