poitier Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Very good, soft pen for a 50/50 tussle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Thought he was great today. Obviously the pen will overshadow this but it shouldn’t because he was great today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Salah was terrorising us from the start of the second half up until the penalty, give him enough chances and he'll get something sooner or later, I have criticized Mings in the past but it was a great performance today even with the penalty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish_Villain Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 It wasn't a pen at all. Great to see him stand up and improve under Gerard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughable Chimp Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 This game is a microcosm of his entire career. Has a good game, then goes and **** it up anyway. Kind of bored talking about it at this point. For the record, I do think it was a pen. But Ings should've had one too. Also, the early chance where Cash had his arm around a Liverpool player.

Van Dyke got lucky today. Being punished for errors is part of being a centre back. Unless we’re expecting him to be the best centre back in the world, it shouldn’t really be a big talking point anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are actual statistics that have measured these and he made more errors that have led to shots than any other CB for each the last 2 seasons in the league. I'm not expecting him to be perfect, but he absolutely has a penchant of making high-profile mistakes and I'm tired of people pretending that they're exaggerated or that his mistakes don't actually happen at a higher frequency than other players. They do, and there's a reason he's developed that reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WallisFrizz Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Gerrards right, Salah definitely fouls Mings first. Then the contact sends Mings off balance. I actually thought it was a pen on first viewing but changed my mind now. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keener window-cleaner Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Immense today, sorry for him that a harsh penalty decision prevented him from keeping a clean sheet. He made so many clearences, must have been a record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Thought he put in a really strong performance today and was a key player in containing Liverpool for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattVillaPortsmouth Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Thought he showed what we have been about under gerrard - put his body on line more than once, was always talking/encouraging, gave it everything - as for the pen, unfortunately that happens, Salah played it well, Ty got a bit off balance then it could have gone either way - bit to me it doesn’t go in the Ty error draw, just one of those.

VillanousOne Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I thought it was a penalty, now i've seen it back I agree with Gerrard. Mings was immense and that penalty doesn't change that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QldVilla Posted December 11, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 11, 2021 I haven’t been a fan on Mings prior to Gerrard’s appointment, but fair play to him he’s been at it every game since and been the leader on the field. The penalty wasn’t his fault, they were trying for the penalty the whole game, the ref finally fell for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we signed him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
