    Shades of Lovren and Hoedt in this one - international defender at a big club who’s form has dipped and needs a fresh start. Let’s hope it’s more the former!

    Liverpool tried to sign him 18 months ago for £20m but the deal fell through as Marseille couldn’t find a replacement in time.

    I'd be curious to know what role he was assured of by Semmens/Ralph. Assuming we stick to 4 at the back, he's got a job getting into the team.

    And for the first time... Sali (but also ABK) has a genuine challenger for minutes. This is a good thing!

    This sounds like a proper steal.

    Did he also play at RB for a bit or have I dreamt that up?

    This was my preferred CB. A really good signing IMO.

    My god. This is an exciting squad.

    I don't know how to process having three genuinely decent options at centre back. We've been used to only one for so long <laugh>

    Adam Blackmore is going to have his work cut out with these double barrelled names.

    Doo-yay Chaletta-Char is the pronunciation too
