Great comeback today! A decent days work all around, Milner and Hendo my pick of the bunch. Sturridge must start vs City. Origi looks OK, but DS seems a bit sharper at the moment.

Disagree on studge, he looks like a super sub but not a starter over origi for me, his fitness isn't a patch on origi and we need someone up top against city who will run all game.

Origi looked a bit clumsy on the ball at times, a bit slow to press, not as accurate combining. A player not in 100% form. Sturridges looks to be heating up. Would like to see him start and provide 60 solid mins on saturday, then hand over to Origi. We'll need them both up to speed in months to come.

Origi's link up play / passing was amazing today, Yes Sturidge is more direct and dangerous in his own right, but Origi is more of a cog in Klopps red machine, he's got to keep his place in the team.

We need to put city under pressure from the start, origi will do that for us. Studge hasn't played more than 45 mins in a long time. Bring him on with 20-25 mins to go. Origi also allows us to go direct if need be as he's strong, can win it in the air or run in behind.

Origi's pass to mane led to equaliser and showed good composure under pressure.

Origi is still a young lad.
He will be a little up and down for a few years yet.
But a bargain for the money paid.
I think he plays better when Coutinio is on the pitch as the opposing defenders also have to keep an eye on him as well.
This frees up a bit more space for Origi and Firminio.

Great win lads. Could have been a banana skin with Crouchy and Joe Allen playing. 8/ 10.

Andie, Origi will not be benched for Studge and his goal does not change any of that. You say Origi does not press enough? Does DS? DS is not match fit yet neither has he shown this season that he warrants a place ahead of Origi and Firmino. Origi was clumsy at times today BUT so were many others. His hold up play at times and lay offs to Mane and Lallana, were simply sublime. He will be starting vs City, IMO.

Just think we won't get as many chances v City. We can't afford to waste any. DS can be lethal, when on form, and he looks to be getting there.
But I base this purely on the last two games. Trust JK to get it right for Saturday. Could be a front three with Couts, Firminho and Mané aswell, if PC is up to speed.
