USED ​​HEAD: Divock Origi rises to the top and scores the 2-0 goal against Everton. To the right, Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp cheers.

Jürgen Klopp asks to be believed when he calls Divock Origi (27) the best finisher Liverpool has.

Published:

– I know it sounds ridiculous since I do not use him that much, but he is a world-class striker. Our best finish, the German manager announced after Origi had once again come to the rescue and saved the club when he first got a rare chance. The 2-0 victory over Everton means that Liverpool is once again only one point behind Manchester City – with five games left.

He has had several such important goals since his debut for Liverpool on September 12, 2015. He had a similar role and became the savior most recently in the away match against Wolverhampton in December. Then he fixed three points on his own.

In recent seasons, he has not had as many chances, but he does not complain and takes the minutes he gets. On Sunday he got 30 minutes.

– He is there every time we need him, Klopp says to Sky Sports. He also has several jokers in the squad who help to give Liverpool quality both in everyday life and parties – such as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Harvey Elliott and Takumi Minamino.

Divock Origi leaves Liverpool for the summer and could quickly end up in Milan. Against Everton he was involved in the first goal of Andy Robertson and even put in the 2-0 goal five minutes before the end.

Then it was perhaps no coincidence that “Div” scored against the city rival. He has incredible statistics against Everton with six goals in nine games.

– It is a good record against Everton. Today we needed it and in the end the three points were the most important, Origi told Sky Sports after the match.

– And legend

– Where do you want the statue of you, Divock Origi? asked Jamie Carragher as the old Liverpool hero tried to put Origi’s important performance in the battle for the Premier League title in perspective.

Jürgen Klopp has previously stated that he hopes Origi will come to a club and a manager who will use him more than they have done in Liverpool.

– He is a legend both on and off the field. It is of course a tough, tough decision to keep him on the sidelines, but everyone contributes and has their share in this, says Klopp about the super reserve which stands with 173 games, 41 goals and 14 assists.

This season he stood with two goals and 71 (!) Minutes in five Premier League matches before he was asked to deliver again.

He will have a few more minutes before leaving Anfield.
