Some Liverpool fans aren’t impressed by Divock Origi.

Liverpool played out a very unflattering 0-0 draw at Bury this afternoon.

The Reds had chances to dispose of the League Two side, but were not clinical enough on the day.

An early chance fell to Liverpool striker Divock Origi, but the Belgian, who also struggled in the 7-0 demolition by Chester last week, failed to take the opportunity.

In his defence, the 23-year-old, a £10 million signing [The Telegraph] by Brendan Rodgers four years ago, was stuck on the left wing for much of the game.

Nevertheless, Liverpool fans were very unimpressed by the former Lille striker today overall.

Earlier this month, Origi, shipped on loan to Wolfsburg last summer, told Liverpool’s official website that he was determined to impress Jurgen Klopp and stay with the Reds’ senior side this time around.

However, if the young attacker is going to remain in Klopp’s plans for the 2018-19 campaign then he has to improve – and fast.

These are chances to make statements, but Origi is passing them up at an alarming rate and few would be surprised if the German manager did offload him over the coming weeks.
