Just throwing in the new name - Jake O'Brien from Lyon, 3yrs still left on the contract. He was scouted but there are a few CBs regarded as preferred choices.

Never heard of him, immediately checked if he is HG and I don't THINK that he is as he was at Cork City (ie outside of the English League system) until he was c20 when he was loaned to Palace.
I like the idea of unearthing a gem though, it's what we do best!
I would be surprised if we went for him though as he's a right footed CB and we already have VVD, Konate, Quansah and Gomez.
{Ed002's Note - Hardly unearthing agem. There is plenty of interest in him but none from Liverpool.}

Ryan Sessegnon for free anyone?

I am an O. L. fan as I live in the city of Lyon. He was OK for O. L. this season, but the team was shocking in all fairness. Lovren still plays for us . That says it all. Jake is OK in French league 1, as many of his mistakes don't go unpunished as they would in premiership. His positional sense, aerial duals and tackling are very suspect to say the least. Physical player who always gets done for pace and always error prone. Ball watcher and poor concentration levels. His true level is league 1 mid table team or English championship mid table at best. Extremely limited in every department. Loaned by palace as the owner also owns O. L. too I believe. Definitely not lfc standard by any means. Apologies for being too negative and critical about him. Just my opinion of course, but I've seen plenty of his games last season.

Isn’t he the one who nearly prompted a suicide pact on here when he went to Fulham instead of signing for us? No thanks.

No thanks Langland, his career has gone all Spursy.
