BOURNEMOUTH, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 04: Divock Origi of Liverpool celebrates as he scores their second goal during the Premier League match between AFC Bournemouth and Liverpool at Vitality Stadium on December 4, 2016 in Bournemouth, England.

The Liverpool striker returned to the team due to Coutinho's injury and repaid the manager’s faith in him as he scored twice against Bournemouth. In an otherwise forgettable match for the Liverpool fans, Origi's performance was superb, to say the least.

If the Belgian continues to keep up performances like this, the team might not even miss the creative magician that Coutinho is. Liverpool play their next fixture against West Ham United, a team who conceded 5 goals in their last game against Arsenal.

West Ham's defensive vulnerabilities make it imperative to have attacking coverage from Liverpool and Origi may just be the right person for that.

Next 3 fixtures: West Ham(H), Middlesbrough(H), Everton(A)
