Stottie Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Here are his stats. He comes out well in the defensive ones at the bottom. 3141 minutes won't be far off ever present. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakka Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Solid PL left back for defending. That's enough for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather have Targett in on loan than no left back being brought in. Lewis will no doubt get minutes but he’s hardly been a shining light so far. I'm still praying Ritchie's one of those who loses his squad spot tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Don't know much about him tbh, but a loan deal can't be bad. Full backs sorted. Mint. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Targett is defensively very solid indeed. Had a poor first season with us, then a brilliant second one (think he was player of the year, or thereabouts). If we let him go, it'll be because he doesn't offer enough going forward, and attacking full backs is a key tenet of Gerrard's way of playing. If you're looking for a defensively very strong full back, though, Targett is definitely that. I'd much rather keep him, even if he's now behind Digne.

Skeletor Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I agree with Gerrard's philosophy of two attacking full backs but never the less he's an improvement on what we have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe has that philosophy as well, we'll be buying a marauding LB in the summer. For now, we just need someone who will help keep us up, and on loan this is really good business.

Gallowgate Toon Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I suspect Howe is going to keep us as a counter attacking team for the rest of the season, tbh - the defensive signings are suggesting it. Plus, Targett is probably good defensive foil for Maxi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordie_b Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Never really noticed his defending ability (although Rafa wanted him) but what does stick in the mind is his whining and complaining to the ref. Said when he was first linked that he has a massively punchable face, looks like a rat on coke (Not the best example) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think as soon as Villa signed Digne a few people mentioned it yeah. I see this as a Dummett replacement (at least in the short term) - he seems to fit the same mould as him, solid defensively with not much going forward.

Still better than Lewis going forward (He doesn't panic in attacking positions and can has a good cross on him). He's not great with the ball at the feet but better than dummet and It's not like Lewis or Ritchie ever go past players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just concerned we might end up with too many defenders registered as it stands leaving other areas light. Hopefully we'll be sensible. If Clark does go it'll be reet Is there anything to suggest we won't be sensible? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
