Not everyone connected to Liverpool are happy with Divock Origi's new deal.

His performances were a pivotal part of last season's success and the Belgium international was awarded with a new long-term deal.

However, club legend Steve Nicol has blasted the decision.

"I was asked this question whether they should resign him and I said no," he told ESPN FC.

"I don't think Origi is any better today than he was [when he joined]. He's 24 now, he joined Liverpool when he was 19.

"I don't think he's any better today than he was then. He doesn't see the field enough.

"He's come on and scored some important goals, yes. But his actual play is not good enough, it's not a high level.

"If Klopp wants to give Firmino a rest for example and you play Origi, the level drops so far down. That's my problem."
