# Liverpool: Fans slam Divock Origi’s first-half vs Preston

**A number of Liverpool fans have hit out at the first-half performance of Divock Origi on social media during Wednesday’s meeting with Preston North End.**

Jurgen Klopp [rang](https://twitter.com/LFC/status/1453413703232131075) the changes from the 5-0 Premier League win over Manchester United on the weekend, naming a completely different XI which included a senior debut for Harvey Blair and a full debut for Tyler Morton.

However, it was Origi’s display that had a number of supporters talking online, and not for the right reasons either. The 26-year-old was making his [fifth](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/leistungsdaten/spieler/148368) appearance of the campaign, playing in a front three alongside Blair and Takumi Minamino.

Origi netted and provided an assist in the [previous round](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/leistungsdaten/spieler/148368) against Norwich but struggled in the early stages at Deepdale. He’s played just [two](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/leistungsdaten/spieler/148368) minutes of Premier League action this season and appeared rusty, hardly touching the ball and losing possession on six of his 12 touches. \[[Sofa Score](https://www.sofascore.com/team/football/liverpool/44)\]
