How effective is Origi coming on from the bench? | Carragher analyses Divock Origi's impact

I think his success comes from him being a much larger and different type of Forward to the other 4 guys. If the other team is set up to counter the Salah/Mane/Bobby/Jota type, when you throw Divock on at 60 minutes it can throw a major spanner in the works for the other team.

greatest sub behind Ole

Origi has played plenty of good games as starter....Barca home, ac Milan home,Everton home 5-2....he is most underrated player in pL. He is effective finisher and he has to play in the middle to perform best.

Origi clearly has high levels of concentration. But ability wise from top to bottom the other guys gel better.

Origi is the kind of "the street won't forget" kind of player

In future there will be new kind a star player who always play as a sub(new strategy),

Origi reminds me of Girlud when he used to come off the bench for Arsenal, always made an impact

Origi is a modern day Ole Gunnar Solskjær

Origi is actually one of the most clinical finishers in our team WHEN HE STARTS ALONGSIDE THE FIRST TEAM IN THE STRIKER POSITION. Unfortunately, he usually starts alongside our second team in cup games and when he does play in the first team, he's given a go as a winger and not a striker. The Barcelona game and his games before Salah, Mane, and Firmino took over prove that. Klopp himself has stated that he's one of the most clinical finishers in the world right now.

Have an affair Jamie you're clearly bored ......x

In less than 7000 minutes he has 52 goal/assists would be how a proper liverpool fan would say it ...carragher always puts a negative spin when talking about liverpool....he is good from the bench but if he got a run of games he would also be good

David Fairclough springs to mind

Perhaps he studies the games from the bench and in his mind, runs through all the possibilities to break the resistance.

Liverpool should show Origi more appreciation by giving him more time on the field because he is a great player. He is just not getting enough time on the field.

I had a mate in school (still a mate just not in school) who's extremely smart but also extremely lazy with an attention span of either a golden retriever on speed or a drunk sloth... To see him finish his education at the same time as everyone else was very similar to seeing Origi score.

Carra asking if it’s a hexagon and getting laughter at, when he’s right!!! The other two were wrong!

He is happy with his role, that why he stays with Liverpool

people pay £40 a month for this?

I don't get why he thinks he made such a balls up of it? I think he felt like he had to explain it? And it's hard to explain, but he didn't. It's OBVIOUS what it is just show it and say look at that for how much better he is off the bench. We're not stupid we don't have to have it explained in words. Sometimes it's hard to explain something that's obvious when you SEE it.

Divock Origi is a footballing legend

When the subtitles say “Diva Carrigi” 😂😂

Origi > Ronaldo

but the stats will be better as a sub because liverpool wnat a goal as they are chasing the game and would be more aggressive the last 15-20 mins

Is water wet?

Its getting worse with all these pointless stats

Stay in your lane

Wouldn't say he isn't good enough, he's just got different attributes. Klopp's plan A is more dynamic and pace based with quick bursts of acceleration. Hence the front 3 are typically shorter players. Not that Origi isn't quick, he's got a top speed of 35.15km/h, he's more of the tricky turn and shoot target man. He generally comes on when plan A hasn't worked out and a goal is desperately which isn't very often. But the fact that he delivers so often when required is testament to his quality.

Reminds me of Robert Horry

Im not a Liverpool supporter but I was dying for a pundit to properly discuss this...

He's been a sub his whole career

Origi is like Solksjaer .

he’s just drogba without nostalgia

Origi is to Liverpool as Ole was to united

Divock Origi has brought more individual moments of joy and euphoria in my life and 30 years of supporting Liverpool than many players in our history can claim. He’s not the greatest player ever, no one claims that, but he has had moments that will live in most fans minds for the rest of their lives. How many players can claim that? I love him

How effective? Very.

When he starts, he's playing with the kids: weak defence, midfield and supporting attacking players. When he comes on as a sub: strong defence, midfield and supporting attacking players. Completely daft to compare the two.

Who was the player liverpool fans used to call super sub

It works in NBA they sign guys to be impact from the bench

Not the brightest is our Carra!

Origi is not a Klopp type player for his systems yet he baffles Klopp with these goals. So if not legendary what else?

OCTAGON LUL

It's the fact it's always in massive situations he decides to do Origi things. 90+mins deadlock? It's origi time. Champions league final? It's Origi time

Origi is a legend up there with kuyt

Divock... Not a spectacular goalscorer but scorer of spectacular goals. In a nutshell and on his statue.

It’s simple he doesn’t feel the pressure because he’s oblivious and other players are more tired so he becomes more effective

He is very calm and decent finisher. So when he starts late, opponents are tired, but his own team is also anxious and tired. So when chances happens, origi is lot more focussed and relaxed, often scoring because he has a cooler head and lighter legs. This is lot less likely to happen when he starts and his opponent is playing way smarter and marking him hard, because he doesnt read game well and quite lazy defensively

Corner taken quickly

Hexagon, it's hexagon

But wherever he starts, the teammates around him are also most likely regular subs. So that’s clearly not a fair comparison. A fairer comparison will be to look into Mo, Mane or Jota’s performance figures when only looking at their sub times.

When Liverpool need a goal and Lord Divock comes on, opposing fans start to leave the stadium
