    Ralph wants him out hence we were prepared to let him go in January.....only Villa offered £7m, Cardiff and Fulham only wanted to loan him.

    Targett is talking to several clubs, guy is almost gone

    2 Championship and 2 Prem

    Him and his gf are boxing their stuff up ready. So I can see it being soon, unless it goes wrong.

    If true that Villa offered £7m we are mugs for not accepting.

    The Okereke rumours are a joke, right?

    Might be the club making it known we are willing to walk away from Che Adams due to transfer demands

    If Birmingham see that we are willing to spend that kind of money on an unknown Serie B player, I don't blame them for wanting more for a proven Championship player.

    Unknown to you perhaps, and myself. Might well be highly rated in Italy and the scouting world in fairness

    I like Targett and would have liked him to succeed here, but I trust Ralph's judgement. Strange how we all trust RH....mainly because of what we have seen, but also partly out of a bit of needing to believe in him.

    By selling on Targett and Soares we can promote Vokins to LB and bring in Mæhle at RB and we would be stronger in my opinion. Would be decent business.

    Whoopie-do. Has he performed even in Serie B?

    10 goals in 54 says no.

    when you've earned 10 million a year for 5 years do you ever think maybe I'd like to play football again before I'm too old?

    I like to think Bertrand could help out Vokins, help him mature etc.

    Harry Kane had 14 in 56 when he was 22 before making the break through with spurs - mostly in the championship.

    My point is that you shouldnt really judge a 21 year old that you have never seen play.

    Come on.

    Harry Kane is an anomaly. You can't use him as a justification for spending £15m on someone who has never done anything ever of any note.

    I thought that was our criteria for spending £15M! <laugh>

    This is my exact point - you (and I) have literally no idea if that is true -because we have never watched him play!

    Also - another random player i searched: Drogba. At 23 he had 12 goals in 64 games in the french 2nd division. Tons of top players hadnt scored that many at 21
