Thats still playing Can out of position when it comes down to it.


While I'm not entirely certain what Can's natural position is defined as, it seems that he is best on the left side of a midfield pairing. And if he was only suitable for one single role, I doubt Brendan would have brought him on. The common theme with these recent signings is versatility, and adaptability.

Can is a defender when it comes down to it. Who can play some defensive mid if needed when you need a stop gap. He doesn't excel at either but he is decent at both like a jack of trades in the back.

Playing him that high up and depending on him to control the left side of midfield is a liability. Not that I'm complaining

from most accounts, Can is viewed as a B2B midfielder... Possibly a DM.. He has proven that he is highly flexible, so I'm not sure what "out of position" means for him...
