Liverpool fans cannot believe Jurgen Klopp brought on Divock Origi over Xherdan Shaqiri against Barcelona last night.

Liverpool were beaten 3-0 at the Nou Camp yesterday, despite putting in a credible performance, and Klopp has not avoided criticism after his side’s defeat.

Liverpool fans are baffled over why Shaqiri wasn’t used instead of Origi, as the Reds chased for a way back into the match.

Origi was brought on when Liverpool were 3-0 and he failed to have much of an impact.

Klopp’s men could actually have fallen further behind in the tie after Origi went on, if Barcelona had been more ruthless.

Origi has regularly been used as a substitute for Liverpool this season, with Klopp offering the Belgian plenty of chances to force his way back in at Anfield.

Origi still only has three goals to his name this campaign though, and there is a feeling that Klopp should be utilising the skills of Shaqiri more often.

Liverpool are next in action on Saturday evening, when they take on Newcastle United back in the Premier League.
