Ex-player: Divock ORIGI

Yes, that’s fair - he does tend to work the goalkeeper. As you say, it’s the other areas of his game that haven’t improved.

The goal he scored v Everton in the league cup was beautiful. Pulled the pass down over his shoulder, one touch and chipped it over T Tex.

It was a thing of beauty that unfortunately serves to highlight more the rarity of the those moments for him… He clearly has amazing talent, but has only shown it in brief flashes.

Bound to score tonight.

That wasn’t the league cup. It was the premier league.

Quite a big difference between “his shots are actually sharp and decent from those angles from the left channel” and “one of the world’s best finishers”.

Lijnders may be a top coach, but that was a minute of crap motivating.

:joy:

That’s right. I don’t know why I thought it was a cup match, maybe it was midweek.

Either way, what a beautiful goal from Big Div.

Crazy that six goals happened in the first half.

Pep knows best.

Origi is an enigma wrapped inside a mystery cloaked in inscrutability.
He can be so unbelievably ineffective, but always seems to score goals at the right moment. Not only that, his goals are rarely run of the mill. They are often in unusual circumstances, or in some way remarkable. Today’s was no exception.
I’m in the ‘get rid’ faction, but he does sometimes put a smile on our faces :slight_smile:

Told you he had a good finish on him, my description above described his game quite well.

I told ya.

It was, I was there. The long pass was from the much maligned Lovren as well.

Just classic Div, really.

Cruises around for the majority of the match, just doing his thing, then out of nowhere a moment of brilliance. :joy::man_shrugging:
