STM Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 5 minutes ago, pedro111 said: He's mint. Don't know why or how he was suddenly perceived to be shite by some people. He's a 7.5 out of 10 every week if he's fit and that's not to be sniffed at. While I agree, he's a player who probably needs a run of games to get into full swing, despite his performance yesterday.

Lotus Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 He managed to cut out a couple of cross field passes with his head. Good timing and decent leap. Was good to see. It’s what Burn absolutely excels at. If Targett can add that to his game it means Burn has to up his he weaker parts of his game (control and passing) to get in the team. Win win. I’m pretty much at the stage where I just trust Howe to play who’s most inform. We clamour for other players but when they get on the pitch we kind of see why they haven’t been starting regularly.

Theregulars Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Became a bit of a forgotten man by circumstance. Would love to see him reach levels that others have done, likeable and capable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solitude20 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Thought he was decent when he came on. The left side with him, Gordon, and Willock was pretty dynamic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Don’t understand why he gets no game time, always looks good when he plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 He's a very good option for us and much better than Burn with the ball, but Burn offers more in defense and set-plays, he will start against Man UTD next week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I think the concern is the injury has kinda killed off what little pace he had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Is there a way for him to play more while still getting the height that Burn offers? Left-footed set piece option just works on days when Trippier can’t cut it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are playing burn not being an extra cb with the ball I genuinely can't see why targett doesn't play. I'm not a big fan of burn to start with but really struggling to justify it when he's going forward more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Offers something else. Burn has been very good but if he gets a run of games I think Targett is still the better option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 If my memory serves me correctly Targett was in fact rather bad the last time he played. Was canny today though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Good to see him back, Burn had a particularly rough evening and it was nice to bring Targett on who can deliver a ball. That free kick that ended up with Wilson hitting the bar was quality and I hope he gets more minutes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Would like to see him or Hall play more often. Especially against teams who primarily set up to defend against us or when we are chasing a goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Burn has started every game of significance that he's been fit for since he's joined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
