Jurgen Klopp's one undroppable Liverpool player has become clearer than ever after Everton win

I think Luis Diaz has to play every game between now and the end of the season. He absolutely balances the team up, and Sunday's win over Everton showed that.

Diogo Jota is lost on the left, he does all his good work down the middle. He kept on coming inside and narrowing the play, meaning we couldn’t get Robbo into the game. But as soon as Diaz came on, he made such a difference.

Heading into the run-in, Origi looked so fit and lively despite his lack of minutes. He is an impact player and doesn’t have the same effect if you start him. With our remaining games left this season, we have six forwards all champing at the bit which is absolutely brilliant. It is what money can’t buy and could be the difference to go on and get two, three or who knows how many trophies. They all want to score and they all want to play every game.

Origi's Liverpool's legacy is clear

Origi will go down in history now with the big goals he has scored for the club. He came on late on against Everton and was probably the man of the match as he made all the difference. He is one of the best players from the bench we’ve had, David Fairclough was the same when I used to watch Liverpool.

Origi gives you something different as we haven’t got any forwards with his height. Everyone will wish him well at the end of the season when he inevitably leaves, which you don’t often get when people see their contracts out. Origi needs to be featuring on a regular basis and people will be sad to see him go. He has given us some massive goals, and there may yet be more to come in the last month or so!
