We are Targeting Targett!
Yes, this is real. And it looks like the most legit signing so far… Is it a good sign. Targett is currently playing for Villa at Left Back, yes it looks like he might be the Chilwell replacement.., Is this a step backwards? for Europa League football you’d think we would be pushing for a better LB (no offense) than the Villa Defender…
So, why are we interested in him now? Well, rumours have it that Ajax want £40 Million for Tagliafico, which we are saying is ‘too much money’ for him, which is ironic because we just sold Chilwell for an overpriced amount of £50+ Million… So what is going on?!
Targett has only made 26 appearances for Villa, joining them from Southampton. He is still young, an English Left Back with potential, but from what Villa have said, he is not bad but nothing special, so is he what we need for Europa League?
This is what Leicester Fan Tv’s Sam had to say about him
“He seems like a decent little player. But is he what we need for Europa League? No if you’re asking me! We can’t sell Chilwell for £50+ Million, then complain about Tagliafico being worth £40 Million, as he is also a very good LB in my opinion. It seems to go one way, but not another at the moment with Leicester, which is why we are a good little club at buying and selling, but for Europe football, this should not be our ambition. We saw it happen with the Champions League season, when we didn’t sign anyone major, and we where fighting to stay up that season rather than challenging for the top half. I feat this might happen again without depth to our squad”
This is what you, the fans, had to say about Targett…
Frankie Wightman
I’ve never really took much notice of him in matches but it’s not easy influencing a game from full back. But this is not a signing that’ll make fans excited. I’d like to think they’re saving some of the Chilwell money to improve in other areas
Sukhdeep Singh Poonj
Sky sports have not reported it was daily star for starters. Sky sports put it on transfer centre but doesn’t mean it’s sky sources
Peter Swann
I Cannot comment on this player do not know to much about the Guy. all i can say is we need another find like Ricardo he is Mint need him back Quick he has been Missed that is for sure.
Ash Allen
Mate we are link with every possible football player on the planet or his brother. This is the one part of the year that i get sick of.
Macca Mclaughlan
Decent cross on him and better than chilwell defensively. If hes around 15 mill its a bargain
Lewis Brown
Compared who we’ve been linked with, this would be a massive down grade
Jamie Dixon
Did we fight relegation last season or get into Europe ? Can’t see us looking at any players that would help us in Europa …..
Josh Butler
Rather have ajax left back i thought we are close of signing him.
Baz Wilkes
Must be missing something cos I think it’s a terrible move…..might be half decent….unsure…but as a squad, a step backwards..
Craig Williams
Good player but lacks that final killer pass or goal bit like Chilwell
Zab Kapasi
A steady eddie replacement, get him in for the right price….
Jason Harriman
He’s better than Chillwell imo, but next level, not so sure tbh.
Ashley Little
He’d have been ideal to play at the back with Ryan Bennett
Bob Gallacher
Doesn’t matter if it’s a good move or not it will be cheap
Dom Bray
Tbh its an unambitious signing , not much of a statement of intent.
James Aelfwald Elliott
Personally think agent talk, Get that new deal in for more cash
Alan Marlow
Not good enough sorry, move on
Wayne Henton
MSN are reporting we are after Danny Rose too!!!!!! Please god let this be false
Dale Hines
Oh look another one we are linked with, to be honest our recruitment since Walsh left has been awful. Sort it out please TOP as this is the only area this football club lets the fans down in every window in the last 2 seasons !
