Tough to believe..as I said he ignored him during his time at Bayern and I dont think he wants him. IMO Juve is more likely.
what about a return to BL, to a team where he would be guaranteed a starting spot?

i like Can as a backup player that can play multiple positions, but i think we are signing only one CM (Khedira likely leaves, one CM arrives), and i want that guy to be Milinkovic-Savic. if Sergej isnt coming, then i want a low profile backup CM, as i want Bentancur to play more, so a guy like Can would not be a priority to me, even if hes a great opportunity for 0€

I'm still waiting.
i made my points in response to Enron further up. Ill copy and paste it here again:

"lets take other players in similar position or role (to Can) that excel in that league: Matic, Fernandinho, Kante, hell, even Yaya Toure had great passing/distribution combined with his physical attributes.

Can is nowhere near that level. Not saying he is useless, just not anywhere near being a great player at the moment. Maybe Max will transform him, who knows"


Nothing more than a squad player. He is not better than what we currently have. On a positive, he is young so he can still develop.

Can is playing very well and any time hes in the pitch instead of donkey Henderson Liverpool look like a proper tittle contender.
He can play as midfielder and in the back three.
Lets not pretend our midfielders are better than Can.
dont let that fool you. the one and only reason for this is Klopp, and his advanced football tactics

Can is better than Khedira. I'll give you that.

    Ok. That is some leap, we are talking about a free agent signing who is 23. We don't need him to be Yaya.

    yes, indeed a leap it is. But do you see him take that leap with us? personally im not convinced. But if we can make him into a semi-turkish/german version of Pogba it would be great. Max is decent at motivating these youngsters.

    How'd you become a Juve fan mate? I am always wondering how English people could fall in love with an Italian football club. I am surrounded by local people here in UK who know nothing about football outside this country.

    Can is a player of Khedira's level. We should sign him and let Khedira go. He's younger, can play an extra role in midfield (in front of defense) which Khedira can't, and can play as a CB. Would enable us to loan Bencantur out too if need be.

    But more importantly, we need to sign a quality B2B starter. Been needing this player since Vidal left.
