not afraid to tell AEG to move...
He was a proper leader though, bought some clever free kicks and not afraid to tell AEG to move more. Useful on and off the pitch.

Useful on and off the pitch.I also don't remember him moaning at the ref as much as he seemed to yesterday. I don't mind it though - I don't want Villa players to be nice and accommodating on the pitch!
From memory, Targett didn't play so well in the first game out against Sheff U last season. And then had an absolute stinker against Fulham away. Shortly after that, we played Liverpool at home and he never looked back. He's a touch player, who needs to play to get sharp and get focused. Barring injury, suspension or whatever, he shouldn't be dropped for a 36 year old.
A solid performance by Young Vs Newcastle who deservedly kept his place though started and remained at left backYoungy is one to have a go at other players and ref far more than Targett and brings that edge as well as quality and experience. Certainly one to use and rotate position with Targett as MT played all of last season and now has fair competition for his place.Well played Ash. A nice second debut . Clean sheet. Job done.Particularly liked way gave words to the diver who tried to gain a penalty first half and then it all kicked off.Young won't hold back with what he has to say. Good voice to have on our team.
Just before El Ghazi took the pen, for some reason You g caught my eye, and he was really geeing up all the other villa players nearby. I thought he had a decent game, but more than anything was another captain on the pitch, which is a real positive. Another leader whether he’s in the first team or not.
