Awol Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 1 minute ago, IrishVilla10 said: I think the only real difference in Digne and Targett is Digne has better delivery. I don’t see either of them as the type of player we need for the system we play now though. For the money I don’t think it’s enough of an upgrade. Agreed, I thought Borna Sosa was the one we’d go for. Much better fit for Gerrard’s system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Definite upgrade on Targett but I'd have preferred Hickey. Tagliafico I'm not sure about to be honest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 51 minutes ago, WHY said: He’s been bang average for 18 months now, would steer well clear of him. Has he been? Can't profess to have watch an enormous amount of him or Everton, but I've an Everton-supporting mate who didn't suggest so and most of the stats suggests he's generally been about the standard he's usually been.

gurru991 Posted January 9, 2022 Visiting Supporter Share Posted January 9, 2022 Wow !! Coutinho and Digne .. that is big time !! That would certainly send a message to the rest of the PL. Good for you guys, I would love to see a shift in the balance of power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Digne was at Barca for about six months with Coutinho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he will be expensive for only a small upgrade on what we have. He’d be a massive upgrade on delivery, attacking movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete101 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 French , meh Would be upgrade on targett but enough to warrant the wage he would demand ? not sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 How is Digne worth £27 million now when he signed for Everton he was worth £18 million? I'd be shocked if we shell out that much for him, I was thinking maximum about £20 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's max a year off, doing very well in Serie A for his age, I'd have him over Digne to be honest. Would be more in line with what we've been trying to do last few years.

Digne is also clearly much more mobile than Targett, and is able to move with the ball where Targett struggles. Im not rly pro or con Digne, but its pretty clear he's a fair bit better than Targett. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Ideally Id like us to sign Digne now, move Targett on in the summer and then sign Hickey. That gives us a couple of years to develop Hickey into a PL ready player and eventually replace Digne. Easy, give me a job please Villa 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think under Stevie we won't be developing players he will want pretty closed to the finished article. Don't think he promoted any youth players at Rangers. The signing of coutinho, and links to Digne and Ramsey should give you an idea where we are heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
