Origi when he hears of MLS interest in him….

Didn't we get told this guy spends more time injured than he does fit before we signed him? He really needs to sort himself out ASAP, we are being forced to push Awoniyi like we were pushing Wood over the last few weeks and we are now an injury to him away from disaster.

He's here to do a demolition job on the PT stand and boat club if all else fails

Are they made of cake by any chance, because if they are it's a miracle they're still standing with Origi in the vicinity.
The plan was that he walked across the stand and then went dancing in the boat club

Seeing as though yesterday's match was top secret and only visible to those in the world famous city ground, can someone please tell us how Mr Blobby played yesterday?

It looked like the ball hit him and went in rather than a good finish.

Yeah I was there and couldn't really tell what happened for the goal really. I think Felipe should probably claim most of the credit.

Otherwise his all round play was OK and looked decent with the ball at his feet in wide areas, albeit against championship defenders. Could be a useful back-up/sub option for the wide positions, but If we end up with him leading the line for any length of time it will be a struggle.

Last night didn't really change my opinion of him, but I'll guess he'll have to do as 3rd/4th choice for the remainder of the season. Hopefully Taiwo stays fit, Wood returns quicker than anticipated and Ribeiro offers something so we don't have to use him much.

He's at least a little fitter than I had feared. Probably won't be much use if we bring him on chasing a goal, but might at least be useful as an outlet if we need to see games out and Taiwo is tiring.

Just tell Divock that the ball contains a pie, he’ll chase that f***er then.

We're at a point where, if Taiwo got injured, we just need a body to play up front. Origi's nobody's first choice for that role but if the worst happens we'll be glad to have him.

In fairness to the lump I think bringing on when chasing a goal has been his remit throughout his career - he has form for it and could be an effective foil of sorts as a second striker... (a bit like putting a biffa bin in the area and punting balls at it might be.)

Why do we have to be so abusive to our own players? Taiwo suffered it, Wood suffered through it before he hit form and now Origi is getting abuse. Please can we give the guy a chance and cut down on the disrespect of our own players.

We only seem to back our own players when they are playing well. This is not support.

Yes I have and i've also heard of the concept and reality of abuse. It hurts to be abused and it doesnt hurt any less if the intention was to be funny

It really makes me feel sad that we only 'support' our players when they are playing well. If they are not they are seen as fair game
Feel free to put me on ignore if you don't like my abusive posting style.

Maybe if he put some effort into getting in the sort of shape you'd expect of a professional athlete, who has access to some of the best support and facilities in the world, people would be more inclined to cut him some slack.

Paul Taylor was there when we took the squad photo that made everyone think he was fat because of untimely gust of wind. Paul said himself dude had a six pack.

I don’t think Divock is unfit in that sense, he’s been plagued with injuries since coming here and by the radio last night it sounded like he had a good game.

First half he ran down the left and evaded a couple of challenges -it got pulled back for a foul on him but lively play. Like any player-needs match sharpness though playing minutes and goals always help.

Good call and I've heard he's got a right big wacka on him but he doesn't like it to be mentioned so please don't make any lewd songs
