The Prophet Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I don't see the logic of Villa letting Targett go out on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc123 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Targett is better than any of our lefties. But take Maximin out of the team and there is almost nothing left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would quite like to have something on in the background tomorrow but can’t be arsed with Sky and all their clichés. There is no alternative Whilst SSN is clichéd when it comes to Transfer Deadline Day it's the place to watch it. And for the first time in years it's worth watching from our perspective.

City’s facility to bring him on for 20 minutes when the game is done is much better for his development than a high-pressure relegation battle. Gonna need to learn trench warfare soon ..

Andy Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Not sure what to expect tomorrow, but with the way we've been messed around by other clubs this window, I'd be surprised to see loads of business suddenly concluded.

Solid enough defensively, doesn’t offer much going forward, great for a yellow card bet. Rafa wanted him two summers running, though, so he clearly rated him. Might be the right sort of player to have behind ASM. I always try to look on the positive side, but he’d be more underwhelming than Wood in my eyes. There’s a reason Villa jumped at the chance to spend £30M on Digne. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Wouldn't be a surprise if clubs that started upping the price of their players will be contacting us after we walked away and didn't cave (Ekitike and Lingard for example) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'd be okay with Targett on loan but permanent would be underwhelming as I'm sure with a bit more time in the summer we can get better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaztoon Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 The money will be to good to resist for some clubs hopefully..easy saying no 25 days left in the window.. when money is on the table with 6 hours left its a totally different thing.

Spose if he's better than what we've got then it's immediately a positive signing. That's all we've needed this month, which I've tediously repeated on numerous occasions. Going way over and above in terms of quality, a la Trippier and Bruno, is just a bonus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams holding out now have a more real decision to make. For example Lille we’re expecting Renato Sanches to join Milan to ease their cash flow woes but it’s fell through in the last 24 hours. Bet they are more open to a bid now for other players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) I think some of the players we’ve signed or want, Wood, Burn and Targett are with one eye on the possibility of needing those type of players to get us out of the Championship next season should we go down, but in the short-term hope that they will give us the experience, character and ability to come straight in to help us stay up. Do that and they will become decent squad players. Sensible signings that make perfect sense for where we are at, where we could end up and where we are trying to get to? We could do with a Tripper level of quality player up front and in midfield still and ideally at CB too. Edited January 30, 2022 by HTT II Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Burn is being signed to play CB Dummett is very limited on the ball, Manquillo has done well there but he's not a natural left back Which leaves Lewis, I like him but he's not played much for Howe so maybe he wants someone a bit more dependable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
