villa4europe Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 10 hours ago, KentVillan said: Towering performance. One thing I noticed today btw - he often plays long balls that get “half intercepted” by the defence, but actually catch them back-pedalling and drop to our attackers. I wonder if the stats do him a bit of an injustice - saw this 2 or 3 times today where a great long ball by Mings would be half cleared by defender but set Watkins or McGinn up for an attack. He’s really crucial to the way we play, and I like how he drives forward when he’s LCB in the back 3. Today he was brilliant in the air, and didn’t really put a foot wrong. Shows his strength of character to just immediately bounce back from last week. Love him. The blocked mcginn shot that then fell for the cash shot came from that ball It was long but flat so the defender under pressure from I think Ollie headed it down rather than up Just need to win that 2nd ball and it that instance we did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marka Ragnos Posted September 20, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 20, 2021 Thoughts on Mings vs. Ronaldo? In terms of bodies and physicality, it seems like a tense match-up of giants, but how likely is it that they will be in close quarters? Is Mings' style a good foil to Ronaldo?

punkiller1981 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Excellent against Everton, I think we need to be realistic about mings, he will make the odd mistake and if he didn’t we everything else he offers he would probably be wanted by Utd or city. In my opinion he is better than John stones who is also liable to make an error probably more often than mings. What mings has in spades for me is great strength of character and that’s why the gaffer made him captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely last man back and clean through on goal without Konsa's clever professional foul. We were very lucky that wasn't spotted. I don't get how VAR didn't check that That was terrible defensive work, always got a mistake in him. oops sorry ... that was not Mings .... great play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Another clean sheet for our captain. Lion out there today. Oh and what was Slabhead doing setting Ollie up like that with DeGea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobzy Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 He was excellent today - I don’t think he lost an aerial ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I said it in the match thread, but Maguire blasted the ball wide of De Gea giving Watkins one of his golden chances - the type that would be used to prove Mings isn’t top class.

Mark Albrighton Posted September 25, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 25, 2021 Interesting to hear in Hause’s interview that it was Mings’ suggestion for him to essentially swap roles and have him go for the header instead. Not sure what prompted that last second change but whatever it was, it worked a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I loved how he was nipping into Midfield to win the ball ahead of their attackers at times. Loved his collosal performance today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
