Tyrone Mings

[PeterWithe]

So did anyone else see him in his car outside The Aston Tavern about 40 minutes before Kick Off.
As we walked up a Car was being mobbed by lots of Villa Fans.  We got up to it and it was Tyrone and there was a crowd singing his name and having selfies with him.
He was lapping it up and there was a a big queue building up behind him.

I was wondering where He was going as He was heading away from the ground and also wondered if He was on the Lap of Honour done by our players after the game ?

I also saw that and thought the same, he was there ages,  I made it in with 5 mins to spare so God knows how he did. Fair 0lay to him, he looked very happy to do the photos etc, even with 500 people pawing at his £100k motor.

He was in the box in the Witton closest to the Holte.

His display was a bit casual yesterday but I am sure he will be on the button on Tuesday.

I'm sure that video clip was taken from the seat that I sat in for the 5-5 against Forest.

"Officer do something! We'm been smiled at; it ay fair."

[Rodders]

I'd agree that he wasn't at his best on the pitch yesterday, but I just love his attitude. When being given pelters a thumbs up and a big grin is probably the most aggravating a response he could have given. Well played, Tyrone.

I was looking down at this from just above, at first momentarily forgetting they were baggies fans I thought he was just jokingly offering water and stewards holding back fans, then realised he was effectively winding up away fans. Rights and wrongs of engaging with opposition fans, as someone was saying before kick off, his lovely Leeds post match interview sums him up,

that was quite a battle eh?
Response: massive smile, yeah I loved it.

Genuinely nice and fun guy.

He wasn't at his best yesterday, but I do love to see him striding out of defence with the ball.  Him and Axel could be a brilliant pairing next year if we go up.

Also, when he heads the ball, it bloody well stays headed.

He provides a bit of an intimidation factor too which opponents are wary of and his teammates appreciate and us fans love. He’s not scared of anyone.

Agree, wasn't at his best, but I too love him, strides out of defence with the ball, like you said, and almost always finds one of our players with it.

He's a leader, too.

Got a lot of man love for this guy. Along with Tammy, he seems to get the club and has bought into it more than you would expect from a loan signing. Would love it if we could sign him permanent in the summer regardless of the division we're in.

Has there been any reasonable suggested reasoning why Jack, SJM and Mings seemed to be off the pace yesterday as they all didn't seem to be at their usual best?

[KRS]

Sorry I meant apart from them being rested last week? They would have been training hard all week so surprises me that just missing the Norwich game could have such an impact on all of their performance levels.

[Lastfootstamper]

I know it's a bit simplistic, as Elmo and El Ghazi were rested too. But for weeks we'd been functioning like well-oiled clockwork, we had a week after Leeds, we had virtually a week after til yesterday, and after Tuesday there's best part of a fortnight to the final. Hardly the most congested of fixture lists. Norwich weren't thugs, personally I'd have liked to see us maintain our unbeaten run and impetus.
