Summer mercato 2024
Bennacer injured with the algerian national team. This guy is beyond useless. And this leaves us in a very tight spot, we’ve got 4 midfielders for 3 spots, and have you seen our schedule!? I still can not believe we havent signed a real DM and/or an extra midfielder. Maybe we start using Zeroli and Liberali…

Origi is actually more talented(in his prime) who can contribute on field more than Jovic and in his pool days he was their saviour and has good stats despite hqving limited playing time idk what happened to him in Milan??

Absence of other Liverpool players. You and me could score if you put us on the field with those folks. He's one of those like Nocerino. As long as he's surrounded with good players he can do something, otherwise - no.
Avaiting for arrival of exorcist into our boardroom.

When was Origi's prime?!? He's a 29 year old striker who has scored 72 goals in his career. His record in one season is 11.

And yes, Jovic is a one season wonder who also made bad choices. And we should have never renewed his contract.

Yes. Both economically (for us at least - he himself has won the lottery) and technically.

Considering that Origi hasn’t played a minute so far this season, not even part of the first team at all, it’s like burning cash for Milan. The fact that a four-year deal was signed in the first is highly questionable and in hindsight, it could down as one of the worst signings in the club’s history.

Origi seems more keen on getting his hefty paychecks than actually attempting to revive his career.

Nothing new, we already know this. He will not play a single more minute for us. We made a huge mistake signing him and we just have to accept it and live with it until his contract expires it seems.
Longo: Possible 3 months stop for Bennacer.

Is Origi fitter than old man Bennacer?

Compare him with his playing time. He has always being a back up whether in Pool or Belgium. His next destination probably would be Turkey as now Saudi and UAE do not accept players like Origi even for bench.
Forza Diavolo ale!!!
The good thing about Bennacer's injury is: The conflict between him and the management could be eased.
I still think he and Fofana could form a strong pair, and free Tiji for CAM position, but maybe it will never be tested.
Bennacer injury might be a blessing in disguise
Forza Diavolo ale!!!
Damn....Caldara 2.
Love how Fondant îs giving Gabbia the middle Ginger...
