Aston Villa’s Tyrone Mings is enjoying his time at Villa Park.
Aston Villa defender Tyrone Mings has told Sky Sports that he is loving life at Villa Park – and namechecked John Terry as part of the reason for that.
Villa needed defensive reinforcements in January, and whilst they brought in Kortney Hause on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers, they struck another deal on deadline day.
Bournemouth defender Mings made the move to Villa Park, penning a loan deal until the end of the season having struggled for playing time on the South Coast.
The 26-year-old is now showing his quality with Villa, proving to be an absolute colossus for Dean Smith as Villa chase a play-off place in the Championship.
Mings has played a key role in this run of five straight wins, and fans will no doubt hope that he makes his move permanent come the end of the season.
Mings has now admitted that his time at Villa has been great, and feels that Villa will have a good chance of beating anybody if they get into the play-offs.
The defender added that he has felt welcomed by all at Villa Park, and is loving playing under great coaches such as Terry, which has all made him love his time with the club so far.
“It’s been everything I could have wished for and more,” said Mings. “We’ve hit form at the right time, momentum is key going into the play-offs. Anybody we face I think we’ll have a real good chance against.”
“I’m loving it, the fans have welcomed me, the manager [Dean Smith] has been great, we’ve got some great coaches – John Terry for example – and I’m learning every day and enjoying football again,” he added.
