479Villan Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 It's a good thing Villa Park doesn't have a roof, because when he takes the pitch for the first time, the cheers from the fans would blow it right off. I may yell myself hoarse from 4,000 miles away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Surprised so few comments but was great to see him in the build up to the game on Wednesday, although in true VillaTV fashion they appeared to begin the broadcast after the interview with Mings had begun (we really need to do the whole media thing better). He was his usual eloquent and collected self, seemed to be very positive about getting back so fingers firmly crossed for that. Had he been available last season I think we’d have conceded much less from set pieces in particular, but then we’d have probably not seen as much of Pau and he was highly influential in the amount we scored, particularly in the first half of the season, so it’s a bit of a conundrum really and will be interesting to see what we do if, he comes back to the same kind of level as pre-injury. I guess with Konsa becoming a bit more adaptable he can play RB but whilst he’s competent in that role he’s clearly better suited to CB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I think my opinion of Ming's demise may have been grossly exaggerated. Still, happy to be proven wrong, we could have certainly done with his biting commitment on occasions last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Real shame this. Get the impression he won't get the chance to have much of an impact this season by the time he's back and then actually up to speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantholtgolazo Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 A “few” months from now would be November/December, plenty of time left in the season to have a significant impact. Can’t wait to see him back on the pitch, I think he’s become a bit underrated in his absence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Fully expect Mings to have an impact at some point this season. I love the guy and yes we'd have conceded less if he was around last season to organise the defence and head some of those crosses away. Whether it is October, November or December it does not matter so long as he's fit and healthy; his leadership will greatly help the team upon his return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're short a LCB as Pau gets injured again like last season we're in deep trouble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll have been 15/16 months out, it's not like players miss that amount of football and are then are immediately back up to speed when they return. All going well he'll still likely need a good chunk of time on top of that to actually build up his sharpness and match fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 4-6 weeks after returning to full training to get back to match fitness. So even in the pessimistic view there'd still be half a season of games left, including the business end of any tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisvilla4 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Met him before the game last week with my son. Fantastic man and role model for this club. Going to be a little emotional when he gets back on the pitch for him and possibly me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMelvillan Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 I'm oddly nervous about him coming back because if he were to break down again on the pitch I don't think I could handle that emotionally ! Need him to be absolutely in the clear medically before even thinking of stepping onto the pitch (which of course he will be - i know) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 In fairness, even just being able to train and travel with the squad will be a massive morale boost. Playing or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob Tanswell has given us no new information. "The sense is" tells you that a reporter has no hard facts for his article or tweet so he is going by his feelings rather than actual knowledge. He has to post something regularly because it's his job. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
