Bournemouth sold Tyrone Mings to Aston Villa in the summer.
Bournemouth sold Tyrone Mings to Aston Villa in the summer in a move which split opinion.
The £26.5 million price tag was seen by many as over priced, but that is forgetting one key element, Mings is a very good centre-back.
He has been called up by England and made his debut for the Three Lions against Bulgaria.
The game was overshadowed by racist abuse suffered by England’s players.
One of the effects of this was that Mings’ professional performance seemed even more accomplished.
He did not look out of place alongside Harry Maguire and England dominated their opponents away from home, winning 6-0.
Did Aston Villa net a bargain after all by landing Mings? It might be the case, especially in a crazy transfer market where his England centre-back partner went for nearly three times the price.
Bournemouth supporters had mixed opinions on seeing Mings play so well for England.
Here is a look at some of the reaction on Twitter…
