Good news, he is a better bet than Sam McQueen to eventually replace Bertie, his crossing is excellent.
I believe Beefy said that Targett signed this extension months ago. I wonder why they've chosen now to announce it.
Targett a better crosser when he gets it right, McQueen more athletic and more inclined to get forward. Both good prospects. Bertrand much better all-round understandably.
Smart timing by the club, this will surely make supporters forget about the complete lack of transfer activity
Happy with this news however i would pick McQueen over Targett personally. I think like Stephens, he really stepped up when called upon and adds more bite going forward. If Bertrand were to leave i'd trust them both.

This news has been relatively common knowledge on here for a while. Pretty happy with it too, don't think he'll ever be a top player but there's potential there to be a solid PL left back.
