Tom13 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Quality Targett is. Hope it's rubbish as would be gutted if he left. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if the club thinks it can get it after all he would be a replacement for a 50m sale I just can't see us getting a lesser player than him with that money and a pretty decent chance it is an improvement Alex Grimaldo from Benfica is apparently available for 30m a vastly superior player.

omariqy Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Targett is underrated by many. He needs a bit of work no doubt but he can be a very good LB for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s very skilful but also pretty delicate. Would definitely like a solid back up, either Henry or Lewis & happily move him on if we could get both.

Stevo985 Posted August 28, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2020 I think he’s good enough for Leicester. We should NOT be selling him though 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Jack is more effective when he has Targett and Hourihane in that triangle with him on the left as the defenders know a decent ball in can come from any of them so they can't just focus on him all the time. No chance we will be selling Targett right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone would think we were talking about Bayern Munich. They are a Europa League level side at best, who pulled off a probably-never-to-be-repeated miracle once. They've just sold their starting left back, they will need to get another one from somewhere, and I don't think it's absurd to imagine Targett might be in the conversation. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChinlessWonder Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I'm not a huge fan. If they give us 10% more than we paud for him i'd snap their hand off, i think we over paid in the first place. I think it's possible he could improve but i'm not confident enough to want to see us turn that down. Can't honestly see anyone going for him at the moment anyway though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly. It's what makes me NOT want to sell him even more. My main issue with him, is his injury record. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they doubled it then yes, otherwise I won’t sell him. One of our most creative players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanpabloangel18 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Vastly underrated IMO, one of the league's most creative FB's (check the stats), and selling him would leave a gaping hole in the team.

useless Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 We won't want to be seen to be losng one of our first teamers to a team like Leicester City, sends out completely the wrong message, unless they make a ridiculously good offer there's no way we'd accept the bid.

You’d want to sell our first choice left back meaning we’d have to buy another one, in a window where it doesn’t appear we’ll be doing MUCH business for a 10% profit? I don’t get it. Even if you don’t rate him I don’t get that. each to their own 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible business which would make me WONDER if you're only CHINLESS. I agree that we did overpay for him. However, valuation and supposed "interest" would probably suggest that he had a higher ceiling than we give him credit for, and/or are yet to see, which the coaching staff might have. ALSO, just like with every other player, should do better with another years experience under his belt, the other players in the team having the same, PLUs having better players around him overall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
