On a broader point, he really needs to ditch the whole “I was working as a mortgage adviser” schtick now. He was playing for Ipswich in the Championship, aged 20, in 2013. It’s been 7 years now of high-level professional football. The origin myth should just be the opening chapter of his autobiography, not the first thing journos still write about him. He’s hardly the first footballer to be rejected as a teenager and make their way back into the game through non-league. I like him, but I worry that this team is still a collection of egos rather than a solid unit, and he is indicative of that at times. Its certainly not a solid unit and I think Tyrone has contributed to that, even though he is still our best defender. He is not playing with same conviction he did at the start of the season...maybe too many reversals has affected his confidence and our other defenders.

He's a very good player, and provably has an impact on our results when he starts. City would have thrashed us in the Cup Final if he'd been out. Definitely Premier League quality, definitely worth a lot of money. Still has room to grow as a leader. I too think better players around him, would have an affect.....personally, i am not enamered with the full backs, in terms of defensive capability.....that leaves him more or less on his own, because the other CB is changed so often with the manager naturally searching for consistency. He is trying to do too much and can't trust those around him.imo Edited March 28, 2020 by TRO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are correct, I also think that Mings plays better when he is paired in a flat back 4 with Engels as his centre back partner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man City, Man utd, and Leicester. Laursen called it right, he lacks focus and that ,for me, is a terrible trait for a centre- half playing in the premier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Terrific stuff from Tyrone on Talksport this morning from 19.27 below. Interesting stuff about his childhood club , playing in front of us, the restart, his academy/the NHS. Quite an ambassador for the club. https://talksport.com/radio/listen-again/1586840400/1586851200/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 50% pay cut if we go down according to report at weekend. Also complicated now by euros being held next summer.

OxfordVillan Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 When football does start making its comeback, then for me Tyrone Mings has to be made Aston Villa Captain. Team captain, club captain. Or McGinn as club captain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question - if we value him at £30m who would buy him? Maybe arsenal? I would say Everton but with ancelotti I'm not sure, West Ham?? I don't think the market for him will be that competitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did think of them but they have a Croatian u21 kid called benkovic out on loan at bristol who could come good and I think would be in the squad next year (or so FM told me...) The money would fit, they've also got Ryan Bennett on loan from wolves so they do need a CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
