Matty Targett being lined up on a free when he leaves the barcodes. I can see legs in this one! 7/10 in the Bright Book of Possibility!

We won't be the only ones looking at him. He's had a good season at Middlesbrough, and stayed fit. He's left-footed, provides good cover, and is an upgrade on Byram. I think these sorts of deals are no-brainers.

Unless you're picking up a real talent at a cheap price, we still need the sort of players who won't start every week but can do a job when called on. That leaves more money for the three or four main targets - striker, AM, etc.

Think this makes a lot more sense than Mings.

He's stayed healthy, would likely accept that he starts behind Gudmundsson, but at the same time be honestly trying to push him. Good enough to step in for Gabby when injured or suspended, or in cup games.

2 yr deal makes sense and as OG post says, won't break the bank.

It raises the floor in the position, even if I preferred we went out and tried for Hartmann or Diouf myself.

Similar sort of player to Krejci and a damn site cheaper.
