Thanjk you.

Anyway, apparently Origi has been getting high praise in the Belgian press, tbf I though Belgium didn't really threaten Iceland until he came on. We could have a special players there in a couple of years.
* The above is posted in my opinion. Feel free to disagree.
Looks exactly like the type of forward that would suit our system, if we have suck a thing anymore!! Would be nice to think that we've uncovered the next Suarez/Torres......no pressure like.
Seems happy to carry the ball and challenge defenders based on this video and the clip of him skinning Baines for Lille. Too similar to Sturridge maybe or a good foil? The goal was a bit of a swinger, but it went in and that's all that counts. Looking forward to seeing him playing for us

Liverpool’s Divock Origi seeks to cut Lille loan short in January
• Belgian striker wants to begin Anfield career ahead of schedule
• ‘I would love to move to Liverpool sooner rather than later’
• Divock Origi completes £10m move to Liverpool
Divock Origi has told Liverpool he wants to move to Anfield in January but accepts an early arrival in the Premier League can take place only with the consent of Lille.
The 19-year-old forward, who scored a fine goal for Belgium against Iceland on Wednesday, joined Liverpool from Lille in the summer for £9.8m with the transfer dependent on him remaining with the French club on loan this season. Origi has stayed in regular contact with Brendan Rodgers and, with Liverpool struggling in front of goal, has raised the prospect of increasing the manager’s options in the next transfer window.
A premature move would suit both Origi and Liverpool, who are believed to be willing to pay extra to bring the transfer forward to January. However, the striker admits Lille need to agree to break the original deal and Liverpool have had no encouragement that could happen.
He said: “Maybe January, who knows? It is not me who makes the decisions but if the club choose to let me go in January I would go. I would like to join Liverpool then. I said that I would stay for the whole season and I wish to remain honourable in that, of course, but if there was a decision by the clubs, I would not say that I would not like to go to Liverpool in January.
“Brendan Rodgers is in contact regularly. That makes me feel very good and wanted. And although I agreed to stay with Lille until the end of this season, if there was a chance of joining Liverpool sooner I would take it.
“I would love to move to Liverpool sooner rather than later. I am here at Lille, it is fine, they are a good club and they have helped me. But it is also frustrating. It is French football. I can’t wait to be playing in the Premier League because I can now see that it will suit me better.”
Origi, who was preferred to Romelu Lukaku in Belgium’s final two games at the World Cup in Brazil, has kept a close eye on Liverpool’s problems without Luis Suárez and the injured Daniel Sturridge. He added: “They have a team with a lot of talent, with a lot of good players and a very good coach. But they have had a lot of injuries and this has not helped them.
“It is difficult when you do not have a player like Daniel Sturridge. I believe they just have to be more efficient but I also believe that it is only a matter of time before it comes.”
Sturridge has been sidelined since August with thigh and calf injuries but is expected to return for Liverpool’s next game after the international break at Crystal Palace on Sunday 23 November.
He looks to me like a mix between Sturridge and Babel.

Always, keep your face to the sun, and shadows will fall behind you.
Please! He looks ready to contribute to me, his stats might not be great but he's with a team who barely dare to leave their own half and is often stuck out on the touchline. He looks made for English football though it's easy to forget he's actually younger than Raheem!
