A respected leader on and off the field and the players clearly like him around. which interview is this m8? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think someone has posted a transcript of this interview on El G’s page. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have telegraphed Greenwood doing what he does, but it’s just a lovely bit of control and feint by the Man Utd forward. Looks worse than it is (which is why only one person with a constant agenda commented after it). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 thought Mings should have done better for the 2nd goal, but overall I think he played really well yesterday. Greenwood is a very good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Personally, I think he's a proper nasty peice of work. The amount of "accidental" elbows and high boots he leaves in is far too high for me to give him the benefit of the doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KenjiOgiwara Posted May 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 13, 2021 Anyone that thinks challenges like that is because of malice can't have played much football. It's very normal occurrence and it's to do about fatigue, being slower than expected and utterly miss timing a challenge. There's no incentive for him to being doing that 3 meters from the referee anyway. Not in the 88th minute and we have **** all to play for. I thought he was a giant today. Was excellent. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 yep for me both his tackle on Calvert Lewin and the reverse earlier which could have damaged Mings ankle were both accidental. It comes with playing in the centre back position. It was a hard but fair battle and nothing malicious compared to how the England captain plays Hate to think people would describe Alan Shearer style of play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Great block at the end sliding in. Hope that hasn't cost him a euros squad place. Doubt we'll see him on Sunday but Hause played very well last time out v Palace so he'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 It was a terrible tackle. People saying he got there late are wrong, at no point is he going for the ball. In the photo above, DCL hasn’t even touched the ball yet? Lucky boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) yeah he was lucky to stay on the pitch, but we've had so many dire VAR decisions go against us i'll take it all day long! Edited May 13, 2021 by VillanousOne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 The tackle was one of them where I didn't think it was malicious at all but still fully anticipated a red, surprised he survived that but glad he did as he was otherwise excellent. Probably should have scored in fairness but when it came to his primary job you couldn't ask for much more. Clearance at the end really summed him up as much as anything - what a man. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t disagree. I’m stunned he hasn’t seen red. I watched it several times and I swear Tyrone knows exactly where the ball is and where the man’s leg is and he deliberately attacks the leg and not the ball. He’s got previous for some really outlandish tackles. There were question marks over whether he meant that tackle on the reading player when we were in the championship. Almost killed him! Played well today, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Should have been sent off IMO, but I'm glad he wasn't and he was good otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongVillan Posted May 13, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted May 13, 2021 If only he can head the ball with a little bit of accuracy. Should have scored, should have been off, but generally played well and good defending at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCL was positioned brilliantly. Mings either had to squeeze it in past him and the post, or play it across the keeper, it was a very difficult chance even though he was quite close in. Thought the commentator was talking bollocks with the usual "got to hit the target" cliché, he'd have hit the man right in front of him if he'd not tried to place it right in by the post. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted May 13, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted May 13, 2021 Think it was no more than a tired very badly timed challenge which he didn't fully carry out - had to be as ref was right on it and VAR cleared it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Played great today. Challenge was awkward I wouldn't have had complaints if he had got carded, but he didnt so I have no complaints either. Everton players didnt protests much to their credit. Love to see Tyrone getting forward more in open play. Great stuff. Edited May 13, 2021 by ciggiesnbeer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
