I gave my man of the match in the Man City game to Tyrone Mings. He may not be everyone's player of the game, but I was impressed by the way he gets himself right at the heart of the danger when it is there in AFCB's box and if you watch back Charlie Daniels goal you'll also see him bombing forwards to make the extra man.
That's what I like about Tyrone - he's a team player. He doesn't wait for others to do the job if he can get there and he is willing to race back when the ball is lost. I like his galloping long stride and the way he thinks about the game. He is worth watching very closely when he next plays as you'll always see something that makes you think, I didn't know he was that good. There was a point in the first half of the Man City game when AFCB had just recovered possession and Tyrone spotted Gosling on the left, and chipped a delightful, curved ball out to him on the wing. He isn't afraid to try things and when his team is in trouble, he's always quick to react.
While he could not not do much about the first Man City goal, he was racing out wide to try and stop the cross that eventually got to Sterling when he grabbed the late winner. Mings goes the whole 90 minutes and he will be a titan for AFCB in games this season. I see the three at the back suiting his game especially well as he loves to go forward with the ball.
In his post-match interview you can see how he relished going up against the likes of Aguero and Jesus and that was after a week when he played his first 90 minutes against Birmingham City, where he took a painful blow in making a goal line clearance. He is one you can rely on when the chips are down, and I'm expecting to see Tyrone in many more games this season. He is a player that can break through and keep his place and his form also add some pressure to Steve Cook's position in a back four, and Steve Cook has not been not been challenged for a long time.
