Would be happy to see Lewis get another chance under Howe, not hard to imagine that maybe there's a real player in there somewhere beneath the mountains of shite that were dumped on him from Bruce's immense backside.

Yeah, look at Krafth

That's exactly my thinking. He was signed as a stop-gap but it was a happy accident and worked out really well, so you roll with the punches and focus elsewhere. It would really be in keeping with the build we expect. Better than what we've got from Targett feels a bit ahead of ourselves anyway, that's pretty elite.

 

Its the bittersweet of moving forward as a club we experienced with Kelly, Peacock, Sellars and co.

The Lodi link seems like there’s something in it. If we are planning on signing him I can’t see us signing Targett. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to sign both but difficult moving loads of players on.

You can make a case that Lewis hasn’t had a chance yet but where say Joelinton showed signs of talent in there, I don’t think we can say the same in his case. I can’t remember one good game that he’s had in the shirt.

 

You have to trust Howe but you’d really wonder what he’s seen to even consider him as an option instead of Targett

You've got to trust Howe, especially if attacking full backs are critical to how he wants us to play, but I really will be gutted if we don't keep Targett like. Not keeping someone that good feels alien, he's been magnificent.

 

No risk because he's a known quality.

An 8/9 defensively every week and a 7 overall

And he can improve his attacking play

 

Let's hope that if he does go it's a Kelly to Beardsley and Sellars to Ginola situation where no one wanted Kelly or Sellars to go but then we immediately got it once we saw Beardsley and Ginola.

He was their player of the year. Brighton certainly won't sell him anytime soon but would love someone like him.

Been linked with Chelsea & City hasn’t he? Would be a great option. Don’t see it being anyone other than Lodi though.
