Pre and In Match Thread. Liverpool vs AC Milan. CL Group B. Wed 15th Sept 2000hrs

I wonder how Mane feels losing his place to Origi?

Last words from me on the selection. Divock Origi was going to be given this opportunity in Klopp’s mind from some point during the last week; and purely based on his training levels of course. Signals to each and every fringe player what he is looking for from them when training but not playing.

Hopefully it’ll give him the kick up the backside he needs.

Hope so. Hope he’s not a sulker. I dont think he is for the record. Quite the opposite I suspect.

It’s one of the last remaining ā€˜shop window’ opportunities, so there is that…

I don’t think he gives a flying fuck about anything by sounds of it

Thought the changes would have come in the next match, but I’m not unhappy with the line-up.

I hope Big Div makes the most of his opportunity.

Surprised to see Div but I suspect Milan didn’t see that coming either. Maybe it’ll catch them out.

that sounds more like Karius than Origi. I think Origi just has a more relaxed mannerism to his personality. Whereas, Karius is just struggling to have a career. For a guy who started a CL Final, it’s kinda sad.

I want him to score so many goals tonight, you wouldn’t believe. Give Klopp a huge selection headache for the next games Big Div!

It is not our only option, it’s just the one Klopp has gone with. It seems an odd one with how seemingly out of favour he has been, but ce la vie

Imagine a few minutes in and the commentator says corner taken quickly and Origiiiiii scores.

@SBYM??? Got to be

Sorry people have to see that twice

I said in the Leeds thread that vvd looked leggy so I get the rest but I’m suprised Matip starts.

Ox and Minamino again a non starter. This is what I mean by depth. You only have depth if you use the players and these 2 are never used.

Origis first start since Jan 31st. Real odd choice. I bet ox and taki are fuming.

Probably realises that it’s to give him a short break before he utterly wrecks Crystal Palace?

I suspect Divock didn’t see it coming, probably still not changed…
