He was given a chance, he started off reasonably well but then got injured. He did not fit Klopp's style of play...Brendan signed him!
Even now at Palace he's still not fulfilling his price tag...13 goals in 31 games is not a good return!

He's scored 14 so far in a team fighting relegation, more than any of our players. His goals are going to keep Palace up which is worth well beyond 32m they paid for him. Otherwise it's ok for Klopp to sell a player not in his plans, however, playing Origi instead is stupid, he should have replaced him with a better player.

Yes, i also feel he disrespected our club, but i was more impressed with Benteke, who actually showed more respect by not celebrating on both occasions. We must also except that not all players or former assistance will appreciate their history with the club like others. So if Sammy celebrated, it's his right. He has been gone a long time now.

It makes sense if you then sign a better player. Building your team around Origi sort of deflates the argument.


How are we building a team around Origi? He's a back up striker whose playing because of injuries.

Only fit out and out striker - so by default.


By default my arse. He only plays when we have injuries so he's hardly having a team built around him is he?

That's the whole point then, we sold our better squad players and kept our worse ones. It obvious that Benteke, Allen and Sakho were better than Origi, Lucas and Klavan but somebody (Klopp or the owners) decided to cash in and try to make up with dross. On top of that, despite the overutilisation of the first team players which was going to take their toll in the second half of the season, we did nothing in Jan. We have paid the price by being kicked out of the cups in Jan and now struggling to finish 4th. I don't know why fans should be happy with this when Klopp has had a -16m spend over 2 transfer windows, probably one of the best net spend in the EPL.
