Why Liverpool Fans Didn't Want Emre Can To Start Against Newcastle

There's a good reason why Liverpool fans didn't want Emre Can to start against Newcastle United.

Liverpool host Newcastle in the final Premier League game of the day, seeking to go above Spurs, who won at Wembley Stadium against Huddersfield, and Manchester United.

Not to mention stretching their lead over fifth place Chelsea.

Jurgen Klopp will be hoping for a result ahead of playing fierce rivals United next weekend.

And he could be without one of his key players in the shape of the German midfielder for the meeting against United.

Can is one yellow card away from receiving a two-match ban, and some Liverpool fans were surprised about his selection considering he's on nine bookings.

What's your take? Let us know.
