sharkyvilla Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Some players would have got frustrated that the ref got in the way of him but he just took a second and picked out a quality chipped cross to Mings. He is so important to our balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Yeah, agree with the consensus, he was excellent forward and back. He's looking like a really good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 (edited) And to think some people were debating why targett should replace Taylor....madness. Looks a class player for me, so good as a modern full back, and an assist for him today. I don't remember the last time I could look at both our full backs and think.....class players.

CosmicVillan Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Villa's best left back since the Scottish Cafu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Needs to work on the defensive part of the game still, but he is a joy to watch at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted December 1, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2019 He's certainly on Targett to have a great season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Excellent today. Very much an integral part of our offensive game, very tidy and smart in his use of the ball, finds good positions too. You heard it here first but he could get a call up if he keeps playing like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elton Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Massively impressed so far. I was underwhelmed by his signing as I hadn’t really seen anything of him and he wasn’t Southampton’s 1st choice LB but he’s proving a bargain. We read he wasn’t defensively strong or quick but I can’t recall any defensive issues. Looks strong in attack and defence and Southgate is meant to rate him from his England u21 days, so maybe he’ll be in with a chance of a call up, unless Southgate thinks he already has his full quota of Villa players..

HanoiVillan Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I think Chilwell is an excellent player, and probably a level or two above Targett, so I don't expect Targett to be getting into the England team on a regular basis at any point in the forseeable. It wouldn't be completely unthinkable for him to get a chance in a low-stakes friendly at some point if he keeps his good form going. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Classy, tidy footballer. Seems like the more Deano and the lads work with him the better he becomes. I don't think he'll be good enough for England for a while as they are fully stocked, but he may well get a call up one day if he can sustain this kind of form. United put James on him, who is a fantastic player by the way, to try and do him for pace, but Matty stood up. I'm a big fan of his potential.

Said he is better than that waster Rose and he is better than Bertrand so unless Shaw gets fit targett should really be England's back up left back.

Danishlad Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 seems very good going forward and doing well defensively. I hope this continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 He's working out darn well Targett is, considering the Southampton fans were saying we got done over the transfer. He's a very good LB and knows how to attack down his flank as well as link with others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Football is a simple game sometimes, you look, see a player and either pass it to him or whip it into a space where he is going to attack like against Newcastle. I wish Neil Taylor when he was younger was introduced to a football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish Neil Taylor when he was younger was introduced to a football. I think Targett is making it look simple. Actually some of the stuff he is doing is really clever. Like Jack, he weights his passes extremely well and is very good at bending the ball around defenders. I would not like to be a right back dealing with those two.

So great this isn't it. Has anyone got worse under Smith? Maybe marginally Kodjia? He's never really had a run though, what was being asked of him changed a lot. What a coach.
