    Honestly, I'd never heard of the fella before the World Cup but he looked good in the games I seen him play. The fact he started several games ahead of Lukaku shows he must have something about him.

    10m is nothing to a PL club these days anyway. Could probably recoup half that even if he had a season sitting on our bench.

    Did the club confirm whether he'll be loaned back to France?

    Yeah we wont see him in a red shirt til next year, its an immediate loan back. Shame, but hopefully he tears it up in the Champions League this year and we'll be delighted we've got ourselves a bargain!

    'Bender, Origi.. GOAL...take a bow son' :eek:

    'Sterling work'.

    That Sky Sports rip-off style graphic the club insist on using is so cheap and nasty looking.

    Every time I see it I think it's one of those dodgy presigning/linked player photoshops.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,456 ✭✭✭evil_seed


    was Origi part of The Clipse?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 855 ✭✭✭Underpaid Mike


    Why the fook isnt he leaning in that photo?
    Does he not know anything about the liverpool way?

    Cant understand why a striker we wont see for a year is any use to us when we are still very patchy at lb & rb. I would like to see Allen and Lucas both go and for us to bring in one real quality replacement. Tbh i'd prob look at a gk to replace reina if we can get shot of him. Jones is 3rd choice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,952 ✭✭✭Morzadec


    Origi seems like a smart signing for 10m.

    It's nice to be in a situation for the first time in a long time where can invest 10m in a player with a lot of promise and let that promise develop by loaning him out.

    This is usually a luxury afforded just to City and Chelsea.

    I personally think it's a smart use of funds as not having that 10m is not going to affect what players we can target this summer.

    Will be keeping a close eye on him, looks an exciting player


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,301 ✭✭✭✭klose


    Right weve signed all the players weve been heavily linked with and the remy deal is dead so hopefully some new names get banded about soon, preferably not bony and bertrand.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,059 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    happy that Barkley has signed a 4 year extension, LFC wouldn't get him and now no one will for a year (maybe two)

    Loads of money and time left.

    Edit - I'm an idiot! Lyon/Lille - dunno why that happened! :o

    Im delighted to read about Susos impending contract extension. Im still not quite sure where he'll fit in in our system but hes definitely a promising young talent, it would have been a shame to lose him for pittance. He may need another loan spell to get games as theres a couple ahead of him in the pecking order, but if he sticks around he'll be a useful squad option. I had him and Sterling pegged as equally promising talents at the start of Rodgers' reign, Sterling has obviously taken huge strides ahead of him over the past two years but there is still plenty hope for Suso, a very exciting young talent


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    Wonder did Ged have any influence in this? Was manager of Lyon for a couple of seaons, probably still has contacts at both clubs

    He is weird, and no.

    I get asked the question constantly. But I am told Liverpool, at this stage, are not pursuing a move for Marco Reus


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    ^^^^^^^

    So we are signing Reus tomorrow then :p

    Yep!!!!! The latest book was quite good though.

    Love TP's books, have read all the Discworld ones (reading the latest one at the moment) and his collection of short stories too.

    Love when he takes something from our world and sees how Discworld handles it (like Music, Movies and Football)...

    At this stage eh? Without that, you'd stop thinking about it.

    In other news i am not persuing a move for Scarlett Johannsen either

    But I am liking Van Gaal complaining about loads of things that are wrong at Utd or that he sees wrong.

    sounds like he's getting his excuses in early imo, and managing expectations//

    He's not that good! But he is tidy and "tekkerz", unafraid to run with the ball and shoot quickly. Is the obvious player to rotate with Sturridge

    why not play him in the Suarez role, seems to have similar traits

    Aye she's good upfront alright

    So no mention of Origi going back to Lille for the year. Is he our Remy replacement?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,775 ✭✭✭✭Gbear

    Nah it says on the website he's going back alright.

    So presumably we are still looking for another forward.

    Could be tricky for him coming back in next season. I suppose it will depend on how the new guy does.

    Just seen this on facebook and it makes me very happy, i could think of one or two more to stick in also!

    "Ibe - 18
    Sterling - 19
    Origi - 19
    Can - 20
    Markovic - 20
    Ilori - 21
    Flanagan - 21
    Coutinho - 22
    Sturridge - 24
    Henderson - 24
    Sakho - 24
    Lovren - 25
    Future is great at Anfield!"

    Can could turn out to be a great bit of business. Ive only seen him a few times and he has really impressed me so far. Doesn't have the style of a player thats only 20 either.

    Under the Skin leaves little to the imagination. I kind of wish I hadn't seen her naked. It's like living all your life yearning to see the face of God and dying only to find out he looks like one of the Mitchell brothers.
