The Origi thing is such a mystery. He comes in at the most random of times. Although he's clearly not good enough anymore, I do enjoy that it makes the people questioning his professionalism and that he doesn't care look stupid. 

Don't think it's random necessarily, I'd guess that Mane was always being pencilled in to be rested for this game (and the Leeds game has made that look harsher than it should), so if Jota is playing in the middle he's always going to be the third man up for that left sided attacking spot.

 

Given Jota has done well centrally so far it minimises the disruption changing 1 of the three than bringing in, say, Minamino to play as a false 9 (or on the the right) and and shifting Jota to the left or Salah to the centre.

Yeah, I edited my post a bit. If you're giving Mane a rest, there isn't much other choice. Although, if he was as lazy as people say, he wouldn't even be in consideration.
