Origi not concerned by Liverpool dry spell

Liverpool hitman Divock Origi is adamant he is not worried by his lack of goalscoring form of late.

The 21-year-old Belgian was looking like a revelation under Reds boss Jurgen Klopp when he netted in five successive games across the end of November and start of December.

But while eight appearances since – albeit four coming off the bench – have not yielded a single goal, Origi is not allowing that unwanted stat to affect his confidence.

“As a striker you always want to score, but the most important thing is to keep doing your thing,” said the former Lille player.

“You need to 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 OK.

“Obviously every game is different so you have different instructions, but for me the main focus is to keep doing my thing and just work hard and look forward and play with a lot of passion.

“You always want to score as much as possible, but the most important thing is that we win as a team, that we play our football, that we get confidence from that.

“And like we’ve seen before, when the team plays well, obviously as a player you also benefit from it.”
