Ain't no way anyone is paying money for a player that has played a total of 10 games worth of minutes across the last three seasons, 8 of them being 2 seasons ago. Best we can hope for is a loan with obligation to buy if Leeds gets promoted type of deal imo, if they are indeed interested at all, which I suspect they aren't.

Isn't he out of contract at the end of he season? Can't see anyone paying £7 million for him, unless they're gagging for left back cover.

End of next season, I believe.

He's an excellent player at that level, he'd be one of not the best FB in the league. If he's willing to step down, every team with the cash should be trying to get him in. Surprised none of the bottom PL teams are in for him. Guess no one needs that position.. 

 

 

It might be his salary, probably on the high end for a full back. Plus he's 29 so no resale value. Good defender though, would definitely do a sterling job for a lower or mid-tier PL club.

If the £7 million figure is true it feels a fair deal for all parties. He's got a big question mark over him due to the last 2 years of injuries and he's not going to have a sell on value which we all know matters in a PSR world.

 

Equally he's shown he's good in the PL, seems a good character and is in what used to be considered his prime years.  

 

So taking a loss on the £12 million spent but still getting a decent chunk back and getting his wages off the books, which is becoming more important due to European Competition's wages to turnover rules, is about right.

Thought he was quite passive in the challenge and in the air. They did seem to target Targett with that diagonal all night. 
 

Solid enough, mind. Still rather him there than Burn if Hall isn’t playing.

Can definitely tell the difference between him and Hall tho, he is just solid and dependable whereas Hall really does have much more in his locker.

 

Targett is a good defensive LB though to bring on to close games down

Never looks vulnerable, that's desirable for a squad player. Keep imo 

 

First requiisite for a defender, that's why he played an important part in keeping us up. He'd be a decent buy for a lower PL side.

Certainly looking healthier with him, Krafthy and Tripps all back to getting minutes

Subject to fitness, agreed.
