a m ole Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Small amounts of subcutaneous fat ≠ worse physical fitness. He’s also pale, there’s a reason bodybuilders paint themselves with ronseal. Fans get really weird sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug said he'd have to just lose muscle and I said he does have some fat that he could probably lose without reducing his muscle mass. I never said that made him unfit.

I’m not coming at you, more a comment on the original chat from the Young thread which has been moved here. Point is, it’s weird when people say x player needs to lose weight when they’re clearly not unfit, performing brilliantly and have top fitness coaches managing their bodies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTed Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) Let’s see if we can get this really weird conversation about his physique into this thread, Ashley Young thread, culinary delights thread, Things that pee you off and because a professional footballer who from what I’ve seen is a nice humble bloke and has probably earned more in his career to date than we will in a lifetime, is dating an attractive girl, the relationship thread.

AVTuco Posted June 20, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 20, 2021 It's weird when you can only give feedback to poor players, and then the habit here is to run them completely into ground and try to chase them out of the club. I've said, or meant to say at least, in match threads a couple times that Targett would be even better if he lost a couple pounds. And I stick to that view.

Phil Silvers Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 He was in better shape last year then the season before and I'd be expecting him to be even better next season what with all the extra curricular activities he will be getting up to with his little lady.

The fact he played every single game last season and absolutely smashed it tells me his perceived physical condition is of no consequence to the likes of you and I, who are most likely sat on a sofa inserting jaffa cakes into our face and chatting shit on a forum. Meanwhile he's busy inserting something else so I suggest you leave him to it along with your best wishes and heartfelt gratitude for being Matt Targett lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" Doughy " lol Unless he is meant to to be at 3 percent bodyfat, like a dried out bodybuilder, I don't see how he is doughy. I actually think, he just put on a little bit more muscle last season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying he could probably lose a few pounds before losing muscle mass which I think is a fair observation. I never commented on his quality although he did substantially improve this year.

That isn't a dig or anything just a fact. And I don't think anyone can dispute that. Edit: although I will say jack claimed targett doesn't spend time in the gym last summer. So I would hope he has actually you know worked out since when his photo was taken. That being said he still didn't look that different in the games this season.

It's like me saying Mings should build up his chicken legs/calves, as they look pathetic next to Jacks. Targett probably has bigger quads/calves than Mings... I bet Traore is " ripped " due to his genetics, but in reality he is just skinny and could probably do with gaining some muscle. Basically, leave our favourite soft spoken Ginger alone!!!
