Popular Post spiezels Posted November 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 19, 2021 I think some can be too harsh on him too. We used to hoof the ball up the field or play it to Clark who would then loft it up, deano came in and wanted us to play out the back. we’ve had success with it, but there will also be mistakes… and when those mistakes happen they’re catastrophic because it’s the last man losing the ball. he’s our best CB on the ball by a mile and his distribution is also much better… only have to look at korts passing to see the options. He makes mistakes. But he’s being asked to do a lot, and his blocks, headers, clearances make up for the mistakes imo. there is an agenda against the guy by a lot of England fans; and it’s the case for some villa too, might be down to his swagger, some see as arrogance maybe, hence the chewing gum bull shit. people also seem to take offence at footballers having a voice and opinions that they aren’t afraid to share. i like the guy, wears his heart on his sleeve and fights for the club, he’s also a clear leader, you need someone vocal, not afraid to call others out. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point remains, he wasn't done at age 29, with dodgy knees and an alcohol problem on top of his age, because he read the game so well. I'm not claiming that Mings is going to end up on the level of McGrath, but it's far too early to say that he's over the hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time he is hoofing. No idea where this myth that Mings is good on the ball has come from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea where this myth that Mings is good on the ball has come from. I swear his passing was/has been a lot better than is now, he would actually take the ball over the halfway line and chip some reasonable balls forward. Now he will pass sideways or backwards and doesn't even attempt long passes for us or for England, his confidence has gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying he’s slapping the ball about like paul scholes but his distribution is better than the others we have in defence and the stats show that. You watch the games, when Korts came in for him, you could see the vast difference in the 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball playing defenders are great at passing through press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiezels Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Well we’re onto our 2nd manager that wants to play possession football, so we better get used to our CB’s making mistakes in possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I look at the 3 years under Smith we were never a possession team. More of a counter attacking team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiezels Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 “Wants to play” Smith talked about it, and so has Gerrard. We played out from the back way more than we ever did before under smith. Can’t deny that. Doing that is going to see more mistakes being made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Mings is comfortably one of the weakest player on the ball we've ever had at CB. You can talk about hoofing James Collins Richard Dunne...I've never seen someone play as many hospital passes as Mings. The amount of times he underhits a pass or slices the ball when clearing it is just not good enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
