I really like Firmino, but I am not hesitant at all to say that I would personally have gone with Origi over him in a game like this. You need a proper striker on the pitch. He's better at attacking balls in the air and quicker than Firmino. We cannot go in to this game with the same approach we have recently against bus parkers. What is going to trouble them is pace and width. We're not going to go through their midfield because they won't play though our midfield. Looking back at some of their visits to City and Arsenal they haven't coped well with direct pace.
Firmino in the City game, yes. We need him there. Hope he recovers in time for that.
