No I doubt this very much, I just think most fans will be thankful for having such high calibre replacements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I think a lot of the terrible mindset for this game can be put down to Mings being injured horrifically. Especially so after what happened with Buendia a few days ago. But we are definitely going to be weaker without him this season. Gutted for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 The biggest loss we could possibly have. We are useless without Mings and have never been able to fix it. I'm quite worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 McGinn was affected by that no doubt. He’ll be back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Newcastle did a job on him - but definitely would have been gutted for his pal effecting his performance in the process. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 We are going to miss Tyrone so much but, and I say this with the greatest respect, it could have been worse if it was Konsa. My reasoning? Only Carlos and Chambers play right sided centre back whereas Torres and Carlos can play left-sided. Torres has had a baptism of fire but showed flashes of brilliance. Konsa needs to stay alongside him. We need a back-up right back and two new forwards. Bailey needs to leave ASAP - he disgusts me. How can a physically fit man be knocked over so easily so often? He is a coward - an absolute coward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 At least were playing Everton next. With Maupay up front my Nan could step in for Tyrone no problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be devastated by the injury and knowing what he’ll be missing with Europe from where we have come from together. Get well soon Ty Hadn't even occurred to me that he was weeks away from European football for the first time. Good grief, how depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should've started wide right instead of Bailey and Coutinho start wide left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now we are missing our best CB by far. Our best communicator, Mr Aston Villa. Only Luiz and Martinez getting injured would ahve been worse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing yet but looking at the knee snapping on video suggests it’s at least one ligament torn. Twitter doctors (tifwiw) suggest an ACL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDR V2 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 You rarely see a player sobbing being stretchered off but that's what it looked like when watching it. Worst case he could be out for months, it's really sad for Mings, never mind anything else 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me think it's Wesley type multiple ligaments gone. I worry for his career now The club just can't financially compete with hammer blows dished out like this. To happen to the player who is such a heartbeat of the club. Just makes me want to turn away from football So gutted for Mings. I pray for good news, even a standard ACL rupture and a full recovery for next season is good news atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
