    Agree he is definitely a better fit for our team.

    Apparently, we can recall him but it will incur a fee (approx £5m).

    We are also struggling and Origi probably wants to play CL next year, so would far rather bust a gut for us than his loanee club. Fair enough. And the loan deal will have a break clause in it for sure, probably a couple of million. So it's not impossible.

    That sounds like quite a bit of supposition

    I'd rather know he's bust a guy on thier pitch still, can anyone say that?

  4. If we wanted Origi now I'm sure Lille could be persuaded otherwise.

    He's one of their best performing players apparently. But he's only scored 3 goals, unlike Lacazette who's banged in 11 so far.
    Not saying Origi is the answer, but got to be a bette backup than Balotelli, Borini and Lambert with 1000 mins and zero ****ing goals.

    Big fan of him, and he's the striker we should have gone for. Committee recommend him, Rodgers wanted Bony. Cracking players whose value will shoot up now.

    Kevin Trapp has a release clause of €4m. Very promising German keeper - will be stupid not to sign him.

    Lacazette is 4/5 years older than Origi.

    A place where Origi could be useful is RWF.

    Origi, a left footed forward, players on the right of a front three for Lille and this is commonly seen as his best position. He's quick, strong, a good dribbler and comes inside to shoot.

    At the moment we have Sterling, Markovic, Borini and Lallana, as well as Ibe out on loan who are all more effective on the left, or should I say much left effective on the right. They are all right footed and prefer cutting in from the left wing to score.

    Sturridge is very versatile. He is however better central or from the right.

    A 433 could be much more effective and cutting edge if Origi was included on the right.
    Origi - Sturridge - Sterling
    With Coutinho behind.

  14. You could have been describing Sturridge there too!

    Indeed. I'v described Origi as 'like Sturridge' before.

    But if we were to play 433 I think Sturridge would be best in the middle as Balotelli's doing awful and Lambert is not athletic enough.

    99% sure he's right footed <doh>

  17. We shouldn't be attempting to play 433 when the diamond proved so successful for us. If you find a winning formula, don't change it! Only way you'll get me to agree to 433 is if we get a recognised DM, not that I don't want one anyway, no matter what formation we play <laugh>

  18. Divock Origi: all you need to know about the latest Liverpool signing (Liverpool Echo)


    You'd think with that title it would leave no stone unturned wouldn't you? But nope, no mention of which foot he prefers. He does say this though:

    "His goal against Evian last season demonstrated what he's capable of, picking the ball up 45 yards from goal on the left-hand side before beating the full back, cutting inside and curling a right-footed effort beyond the goalkeeper"

    I dont know, I'v just seen him hit some good ones with his left.

  20. Hopefully he can use both. This is the one quality I still like about Glen Johnson, it doesn't matter which foot he uses because they are just as good (bad?) as each other.
