da supremo: Divock Origi is optimistic that he will get back to scoring ways for Liverpool following a recent goal drought.
da dobrowin: The Belgium international has so often been preferred to Daniel Sturridge by Jurgen Klopp, but he is not repaying his manager’s faith at the moment.
After netting goals in five games on the bounce across late November and early December, the forward has now gone nine games without finding the back of the net.

It was made even worse for Origi in last week’s FA Cup third-round replay against Plymouth as he missed a penalty at Home Park.
Despite that, the striker has told Liverpool’s official website that he is not concerned about his form.
“As a striker you always want to score, but the most important thing is to keep doing your thing, keep focused, keep playing your game and of course, if the qualities are there and the instinct is there, then it’s just a matter of finding the right places. [You have to keep] focus. I’m confident that it will be okay.”
The forward has not been a regular this season having started just six Premier League games and making appearances off the bench.
He has largely been used in cup competitions, with five appearances in the EFL Cup to his name and one in the FA Cup.
So far this season, the 21-year-old has scored seven goals in all competitions.
