Matt Targett: set to sign for Leeds United (Wilson) / no he isn't (Ryder)


Recommended Posts

Thought he looked understandably rusty today. Casting my mind back to the second half of 21/22 and he was excellent for that second half of the season. 
 

If he could stay fit then I’d be more than happy to keep him as backup LB. However he’s one of these players who

will just randomly disappear for months on end, so if someone offered us £5m or so then we should really be snapping their hands off.

Looked solid,never really troubled, got into some good positions on the overlap( although his crossing was poor, admittedley) . Reminded me of what he was pre injury, he's on a similar footing to Krafthy imo. I'd say that's more balanced to your damning report, like

Yeah, I mean he looked decent in a side that was aspiring to be just above relegation. I have nowt against the lad, it's nowt personal, I agree today he will have been rusty and that a fully fit and regularly fielded Targett is better than I witnessed today, but on today's showing alone, he showed he was miles off the pace both physically and mentally versus league two opposition.

There were times first half where not only was his distribution poor, but he showed no attempt to be in the progressive poisitions he should have been in, was not in the defensive positions he should have been in, was too left footed and made bad decisions. He was literally poor in every aspect of his game.

 

I hate being "this guy" but he was. It's literally so unlike me. :lol:

He played well shows he's still got something to offer this team going forward. 

I'd happily keep him if he's okay with been backup leftback. 

We played Bromley 😂

 

He's barely played a game in two years, he should be moved on in the Summer.

By your reckoning then miley can't be praised because he played Bromley aswell.

Miley is a 17 year old kid who was holding his own in the CL last season, and has clear quality.

 

Like I said, Targett hasn't played much in years and is only going to get worse.

 

You saw today the lack in quality of our players in reserve, so I don't think keeping them around is a good plan if we want to be qualifying for the CL every year.

Had a canny few shots aswell at the edge of the box that weren't far off. 

Overlapped well fair enough some of his cross attempts weren't great but I seen enough to show he's not in decline like the migster and the staffy. 😂
