Stefan de Vrij being rumoured in Italy, available on the cheap because he's in the last year of his contract at Inter Milan.

I'm not as down on Mings as some, but a bid of 30M+ has to be considered. 

Same here, but if we sell Mings for 30m+ to the barcodes and replace him with Sven Botman for the same or less then I imagine the Newcastle fans will be a bit unhappy to say the least.

Unhappy isn't the word. They're talking about pipping Chelsea to Neymar  ;D

I'd sell Mings for anything over £30m.

Helped get us up, stay up and establish ourselves so his job is done. Surely when we got him we didn't think he was gonna take us into Europe? I'd say thanks for your contribution, wish you all the best Tyrone. Been a good signing and great captain but the time is right.

Newcastle taunting us for signing a 29 year old for £23m and then signing 29 year old Tyrone Mings for £35m will make me lol.

See the Wolves lot think we’re wasting all our money on old players as already over half our first team are above the age of 30.

The one they were desperate to sign for £32m five months ago.

Does Harpo Marx look any closer to being a £35m footballer yet?

Hopefully just a rumour. I'm all for bringing in a bit of experience but let's not go full-on Dads Army.

He might make a mistake every 270 minutes but the slander he gets is a little over the top.
Agreed

How he hasn't made the latest England squad with the rubbish that's been included is a mystery to me.

Suarez as a 3rd striker I'd take. He's not going to play every game or start tonnes. But even at his age, the ball falls to him inside that 18 yard box, its going in. If he has Ollies chances on Sunday, we win 4-0.

The problem with these former elite players is that they usually don't accept not playing every week and are very hard to manage as a result. Suarez is finished at the top level and his retirement home should be elsewhere.

He's managed to cope with coming off the bench on 80 minutes for the last six months.

Is that also ‘Screech’ from Saved by the Bell?

The day the latest England squad was announced Mings posted a tweet that left me feeling a little bit uncomfortable.  Reading between the lines it smacked of a goodbye message of sorts.  I hope I'm wrong I like the bloke, mistakes and all.
