    прост.
    lay one's eye on smb.; have a thing for smb.

    Когда-то давно, точно Ирина Викторовна и не помнит когда, она поняла, что Никандров к ней благоволит. Очень. Может быть, это было то, что называется "положить глаз". (С. Залыгин, Южноамериканский вариант) — Sometime long ago, Irina Victorovna didn't exactly remember when, she realized that Nikandrov was sweet on her. Very much so. Perhaps this was what is generally known as 'having a thing for her'.

    - Вот, - говорит, - Витёк, Ирина хочет посмотреть твои фотографии, и чтобы ты её снял. Можешь сейчас? Ещё бы не могу. Я уже глаз на неё положил. Вот, думаю, кого я с удовольствием сфотографирую. (А. Сегень, После всего) — 'Vic, look,' he says, 'Irene would like to see your pictures, you might take a few snapshots. Could you do it now?' Sure I could. I'd already laid my eye on her. Here's someone, I thought, whom I'll photograph with the greatest pleasure.
