If you are needing to reky on origi for a month then we are in deep shit. He was rated highly when we bought him, we loaned him out/back to a French club and was voted worst player in the league. Would agree that he had potential but have never seen this "exciting player". He has popped up with a few Important goals but is nowhere near even making our 2nd squad thesedays. He deserves his plaudits but is seriously not good enough for us. Wish him well where ever he goes though, comes across as a likeable ladHe was a kid with potential then. And that potential was exciting. Downing probably did had a decent run at some stage but he was never an exciting player for us.
Origi came onto the scene at the same time as Rashford. And there was some debate on here who was the better player. Origi's done more than Rashford has so far.
I wouldn't want to rely on Origi for a whole season too but for a month or so, he's perfectly good for that.
