Big Div is an institution, feels like he's been here forever. I'm sad to see him go but at 27 he needs to make the most of the next 5 years or so of his career. I hope he does well and doesn't just fade away.
I see divock as a bit of a novelty, he's had some very big moments, but I'm still well able to remember the days of seeing him starting and feeling my heart sink. However my lad absolutely adores him. If there is a status bigger than legend than div has it. He loves salah, Henderson mane et al. But big div is on another level of absolute adulation.
My honest opinion is that he's had some very special moments but has never hit the heights I was hoping he would. But the club has regained that "family" feel that it had in the past, and he's part of that family.
He is a legend but a frustrating one as he had the natural attributes to be consistently a very important player for us instead of one who is remembered for moments albeit hugely important moments .
Wonder if he’ll get 5 minutes at the end of the game to get his standing ovation. Hopefully games won and can give him his moment. Think cult hero best describes him. Not sure if that’s harsh as that’s sometimes referred to someone not very good but he had his moments with us and has contributed when needed. Im sure if he does come on v wolves the crowd will show him some appreciation.
Personally for me every one of the prem winning squad.. brewster an all deserves to be called a legend. Klopp said himself they were as much part of it as anyone. But I like calling div a cult hero more, cos that's what he was many a time for us. Im hope hell do very well with Milan
The Fact that.. "football without Origi is nothing" Is now an Internationally known symbol like Nike and Coca-Cola and Jordan is proof of his DIVine-ness
I hope philosophy football. com are on to this.....or one of the fan sites? I want that T shirt...............'Football without Origi is nothing'
The epic Barcelona comeback alone wouldn't have happened without Origi. He can be quality when he applies himself and I think he could be a top striker at a non elite club. Klopp always says he is the best finisher in the team.
It's on the BBC website for this season, I'd imagine you can find previous ones somewhere. This season a goal every 100mins. Minamino is right behind on a goal every 101mins Next best is Mo on 130. Put another way, goals per 90mins: Origi 0.9 Mini 0.89 Mo 0.69 Apparently.
It's nice that someone replaced djimi traore as the crappest cl winner for us. The lad is also the winner of the cult hero medal collectors championship for us. I'm sure there are more successful **** players at other clubs or bigger cults but not for us.
