Popular Post icouldtelltheworld Posted January 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2023 Asides from Grealish, he is the most important player in the club's recent history. He'll be considered a club legend by the time he's done here IMO, if he isn't already 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Indigo Posted February 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2023 There's been some stinkers signed on the 31st of January before but the club will do well to make a bigger (literally), more impactful one than this again. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Shame he's only been captain for 1 of those 4 years. He was basically the on-field captain almost from day 1. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupinthe5th Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 All over the place today. Needs replacing in the summer. Not good at playing from the back. That's going to be our identity from this point forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I find it hard to believe we could find an upgrade on him for less than 50 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hard to believe we couldn't upgrade him for £50 after today. Slow, unaware and positionally shocking. The sooner him and Konsa are replaced the better. He's been decent at times but if there is one thing I hate, it's a player telling his teammates to calm down when he's putting them under pressure.

Jareth Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Nah - keep Mings, new contract please - but on the understanding he may not be the main man in the years ahead. The guy is Villa through and through, would be mad not to hold onto him. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is Villa through and through, would be mad not to hold onto him. yeh, i'd keep him as 1 of 4 central defenders fighting for the 2 spots, the problem right now is that he has zero competition, same for Konsa tbh. I think 4 CD's of Mings, Konsa, Carlos and another (Torres type?), would be just fine, the problem now is just that our central defenders have no genuine competition for their places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 There's something about a defender when he always seems to be the last man that makes me think he's not doing something right. Today, it looked like he was playing sweeper but, in a back four. For me, Ty made too many errors today. It's a trait of his game to mark space rather than pick up someone. He did that today for Ihenacho's goal. He followed him into the box perfe tly, cleared the ball then, for some reason, ignored him and walked moved towards the near post to mark nobody and Ihenacho just pretty much stood and had a free header. I saw people blaming Digne but he was with another Villa player picking up two Leicester players at the back post. Far too many times I see Ty marking space. He's done it on corners, free kicks, crosses into the box etc. His job is to defend and stop players from scoring goals or creatinf them. Space doesn't score goals - players do.

Tommo_b Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Didn’t think he played particularly poorly, Leicester were clinical and capitalised on mistakes that Mings didn’t make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
