Post match “we had to do something quite alien to us which is defend long balls for the entire game”
-
Bet he didn’t expect he’d be getting photos like this last season
-
Think its more "rotation" than "back up". The Prem has never been as physically demanding as it is now, the amount of distance players cover in the modern game is very high.
-
For sure, plenty of 4-4 draws
-
He’s always scored goals and been a talent, I think he may actually surprise a few people in more of a narrow role - we need to get him firing though. We need to get them all firing. Although we probably just need to get him to actually play first and foremost
-
Only just turned 26 a few months ago, I hope Digne pushes him back into form! Up the Targett!
-
He has played as a striker, I don’t think it would be a problem tbf
-
We could end the window with this line up. Insane.

We're not though, he's cost us £800k which may rise to circa £2m if he fulfils his potential. I'm glad we're signing "the next generation" alongside the senior players we've also been signing, you must admit for a 16/17 year old it is pretty rare to be getting first team minutes even in the SPL especially as a CB.
-
Pretty sure I read that they plan to utilise him from the bench not as a starting option. Obviously it depends how well he shows himself in training, but you’re right that they need a squad
-
Announced so I assume he’s available for the weekend!
-
He’s a very, very good player
-
Their fans are fuming - lots of annoyance over many things, E.g. apparently Digne was taken off corners months ago by Rafa but he’s still got their best corner stats for the season or something along those lines.
-
Ah I see, so it’s just newspaper crap. What I can see Digne has directly said is that he didn’t want to leave and he signed a new deal there last season hoping to stay for a long time. The fans like him, his teammates seem to like him too judging by the Instagram replies. Surely it makes more sense to go off this, rather than some crap made up by some journos?
-
Said he wanted to leave to who? He literally just posted on Instagram that he didn’t want to leave
-
And he has 7 (approximately I think it maybe 8?) appearances this season and we’re only half way through. What were you expecting?
-
Won’t be surprised if he goes, won’t be surprised if he stays. That said, his brothers going up to Scotland for the next 6 months, maybe a “we’ll do the same to you Carney” move
-
Exactly. He seems to have been shunned by Rafa and probably didn’t want to leave - but he’s had to. Now he moves into a new chapter and I’m sure he’ll post a long nice story about it in his shiny new kit
-
Probably because he’s been 16 years old for the majority of the season so far
-
Can’t see Deano lasting much longer, they’re absolutely awful. I hope they’re smart and allow him to stay on regardless as he’s the man they will need to try get promoted next season, but as things stand it doesn’t look good at all
-
Neymar - the new superstar, or the new Robinho?

Probably sign him on loan in the Summer -
AEG is easily worth £15m - we’re spunking £25m+ on everybody we buy, we can’t move forward undervaluing our own players.
-
Targett being crap in the final third is a myth though. There was a period where he had the best output for key passes etc. for a fullback in the league. He just seems to have lost it again - as many have said when he loses his confidence it’s as if he loses it all. When it’s bad it’s bad.
-
You’ll see Matty Targett at his best when playing behind closed doors. It’s a shame but he really seems to be deflated, and it’s surely not a coincidence that when he was at his best it was in empty stadiums.
-
I love AEG and fully appreciate what he’s done here, but we were fully in the game when he came on last night - he had no better opportunity to make an impact in a match, but he just looked flat. The press completely stopped and he was moaning at team mates within minutes of making his entrance.
