villa4europe Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Said in the ratings thread I thought his handling of kane was superb, it's a hard job cos he pulls him about and drops deep but mings was brilliant with it, passed him on when he needed to, stepped out, dropped off, gave him space in the right areas, closed down in the right areas, read the game perfectly My MOTM And Kane with that grabbing his arm free kick what a cheating word removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO it's fine to be petty if you've backed a player and he's shown his quality. It's people who revel in 'calling it' because they said someone was shit that does my head in.

Tbh I already loved the guy albeit accepted he has his limitations but some of the stick he's taken this season has been so pathetic it somehow made me warm to him even more. More than proved his worth as the season has gone on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Immense today. Definite leader. He's talking is so important to us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't think he has that many limitations tbf - he'll make a mistake sometimes but it's rare, but all defenders do - I really think he's up there with some of the great CBs we've had tbh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 His biggest weakness is when he stands off sometimes his lead foot gets stuck. Watch Salah's second goal against us in the 7-2 it happened sort of today but Mings managed to get a deflection on it when Kane had a shot which Emi saved. It doesn't happen often though. Other than that he is going to be a Villa legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Huge player for us. To think, Bournemouth thought they'd ripped us off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 i like the Mings, Hause, Konsa combo, wish we'd played that everytime Cash was injured/suspended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Mings is quality, such an important player for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I think its noticeable he hasn't been pissing around with the ball as much recently. Such a great player when he simplifies his game. Excellent tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 There was a header towards the end of the game where it was slightly behind him and too high and he not only got to it but cleared it 30 yards with immense power . Love his leadership commitment and considerable ability. Martin Laursen got loved for putting it all on the line in games. Mings is at least the equal in the air as Laursen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you wonder what we might be like with Mings, Hause and Konsa operating as a back three more regularly against the ‘bigger’ teams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icouldtelltheworld Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Last two games really highlight how important he is for us, our other defenders are so much more solid with him organising the line. That we have a mostly settled back 5 is really promising moving forwards, as it gives us an excellent base to build from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roscoe Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I reckon this is where JT has had his biggest impact. Has moulded him into the Voice and the Leader of our Defence. TM has his moments, but don’t we all. Very impressive individual and a great leader on and off the pitch of which we should all be proud to call ours.
