In the case of Matt Targett I didn't see too many that upset when he left, like many home grown players people don't see their real worth till they are gone and suddenly people change their minds a bit purely based on the fact that someone else wants them |  |

Targett needed to move and Villa were prepared to pay an over the odds price.
Let's face it, he only played when Bertrand was injured or suspended.
He was an adequate stand in, but nothing fantastic - which he demonstrated on our trip to Villa just before Xmas.
The deal was good for both clubs and the player, so let's all move on and wish him well, apart from when he plays against us again. |  |

To be fair Nick i was jesting a little with my post. I like Matty Targett but fully get why he went / was moved on (or call it what you like). Yes it left us short if Bertie got injured, but he probably wanted game time and let's be fair, the money was probably handy for us to horse trade for other players.
A few were probably upset when Shaw, Chambers et al went as was I, but not many have improved since their days with us. | |

You cant generalise like that.
Targett was seen as an up and coming prospect by many and I for one thought bearing in mind who we had to choose from in that position he should have been given more time.
We are very quick to lose good players. | | | |

As with Chambers ... the money was too good to turn down for somebody who would only play as back up.
What was criminal was not finding an adequate replacement back up. |  | | |

We had to let Targett go, so we could fund the loan of Danso |  |

Personally, I did think at the time it was a poor decision and I think I said so, at some point on here. At the time, I felt Bertrand was the one that should be moved on as his form and attitude had been indifferent for a little while. It has picked up this season. I guess the reason for Targett going was to try and raise some coffers, but I did think it was a short term decision and gained us little. But, we all make decisions that sometimes come back and bite you - I certainly have, so I am not necessarily criticising the decision. |  | | |

Approaching 24 in the summer he had stopped being an up and coming prospect and he had to kick on, I liked Targett but he needed to play football he couldn't wait another year for Bertrand to go down hill.
Good luck to him, I wasn't one of those who slagged him off as not good enough | |
