His father works as a scout for Chelsea.

Handy to know .       Dad whispers to  son who whispers to Dean smith for some talent for the club.

I thought Tyrone was raised in a homeless shelter while living with his mother there, so he may not be close to him

He has a lot to prove but it would be good to get him and Axel in permanently

If he has a lot to prove then the same can be said for every single player on our books.

Indeed it can. And therefore we need to be circumspect on players we add and remove from them at the cost. Especially after a dozen years when we were anything but.

I am a fan of Mings - I wouldn't spend 20m on a 26 year old who has played less than 100 games. Well I would if his name was Paul McGrath

Who was 30 when we signed him and had only played 160 odd not to mention slightly iffy knees and a dubious drinking record.

Evidentially awesome. This is quite some chart, out there on his own to the point that in statistical analysis he’d be dismissed as an outlier.
Apologies if I missed it before.

Since I have your attention, did it get reported what his injury was, I thought I saw some discussion of cramp but often that’s stretched out/run off? .

“Tyrone Mings is a cut-above, playing progressive passes to the opposition half often and with great accuracy. ”

Though in following tweet,  having just found the whole thread

https://twitter.com/rramesss/status/1132945551513726976?s=21

“Mings' outlier nature in the previous graphic can be qualified from his deeper position.”

Interesting, if a little difficult to read. Maybe some slightly to the right of Mings ought to be scouted as potential incoming CB for us?Can you supply a link to the original?

It’s the twitter link in the post below, there is a whole thread of these type of charts apparently made by him.

Of all our loans, Mings is the one we have to get whatever the price.

Read over the shoulder of someone that we’d agreed a fee of £14m. Couldn’t make out what the site was. No news on that?

A Ming vase has been sold today for £14m.
