avfc1982am Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I thought him and Konsa were garbage tonight. Both far too slow moving the ball forward. Been one of our better players this season but tonight the less said... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They moved it between themselves, waiting for movement from our static midfield for half of the game. I thought they looked good, and so did most others here it seems. And mings got the assist. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not worried what everybody else thinks I thought they were both poor and too often took too long moving the ball forward. There were many times when Cash or Digne were open and still they went side to side to each other or backwards. Great that Mings got an assist in what was a poor team performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing, the movement in front of them is so poor that no one shows for the pass That's why they're slow in possession or go long, non existwnr midfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the Holte End you could see several occasions when there was an outball wide and both CBs decided to check back and slow the tempo. Mings played a stupid ball inside in the first half to Luiz I think when there was a better option out to Digne. Giving possession needlessly away.

Chine Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I thought the big man has done well since UE has come in including last night , what a ball for the assist ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted January 5, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5, 2023 That pass for Ings was sublime. There's attacking mid players that would be struggling to make that pass, let alone big centre backs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 thought he was awesome yesterday and has been under Emery, him an Konsa get forward so much more and get into the thick of things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheltenham_villa Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Everyone see's things differently, I thought last night that Mings often slowed down the play but I now wonder if it was more to do with Digne. It was clear early on that the Wolves midfield 3 were going to block anything through the middle of the pitch to Luiz and Kamara. This meant Mings often had to go to Digne who just kept giving him the ball back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveburnside Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 The holding onto the ball and passing around the back is to draw out the opposing forwards and make space in the midfield. Its intentional. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I thought Ings was slow, he was nowhere near being offside. </Sarcasm> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Mings has been excellent under Emery and for this season overall. If we see a new LB and when Carlos is fit and hopefully playing well. I think Mings will hit another level. He's surely going to win player of the season at this rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 All the stick he gets. Last 10 minutes is when he's a huge miss. It's o.k wanting better footballers in the backline (not that we had any in there today) but you need guys who can communicate aswell. At least fitness permitting him and Martinez will start every game left this season now rather than messing around putting reserves in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
