Divock Origi has become a cult hero at Liverpool in the last 12 months, with some now even viewing him as a Reds legend.
The Belgian looked like leaving the club in the summer of 2018, only to stay put and contribute hugely to Liverpool’s season.
Origi scored huge goals against the likes of Everton, Newcastle United and Barcelona, before bagging the Champions League-clinching strike in the final win over Tottenham.
It has since been noticed that every side the 24-year-old netted against last season now seems to be in some sort of turmoil, leading some to believe that Origi has cursed them.
These supporters have been reacting brilliantly to the claim, with the Liverpool striker inheriting the curse that rapper Drake apparently had on others before.
Move over, @Drake.

Two seasons ago, he was shipped off to Wolfsburg on loan in favour of Dom Solanke. Since returning, he's developed a Didier Drogba esque reputation in big games, won us the Champions League and scarred teams so much that there's an Origi curse.

This is, of course, a bit of fun, but it is bizarre how much those Origi has scored against have struggled recently.
Spurs and Barcelona, in particular, are suffering badly this season, with the latter damaged after their 4-0 defeat at Anfield back in May.
Here’s hoping Origi rattles in a hat-trick against Manchester City when the two sides meet on November 10th!
