Ozil is Arsenal’s playmaker in chief and the responsibility for limiting his impact on the game will likely fall to our young German. Can hasn’t started a Premier League game for us yet this season but with Jordan Henderson struggling with an injury he’ll surely get his chance in this one. This is a big opportunity for Can, who will really want to establish himself as a Liverpool midfield player, having predominately been used as an emergency defender last season. He has the ability and now it feels very much like the time for him to start showing it.
