He even looks down just before it happens.

It's a judgement call for sure and you'll always piss off somebody with those. But even if Mings thinks he got the short end, behaving like a small child won't change anything about it. He comes across like an utter bellend.
The guy's been out for 15 months with a knee injury. Just started playing his way back into Bournemouth's first team. Shaky comeback, lot of home fans on his back, but for the first time in that Man Utd match we saw a glimpse of his potential. Flashpoints aside, he pretty much held his own against Ibra.

I don't think he comes across as a bellend at all with his tweet. Just a sense of sarcasm at the perceived injustice.

Check out what he's like in real life. The opposite of what we expect our modern day footballers to be. He's actually a good and genuine guy.


"Off the field, Mings has gained a reputation for charitable and generous acts. He spent Christmas Day 2013 feeding homeless people and when he was given the number 3 shirt by Ipswich at the beginning of the 2014–15 season he replaced the shirts of fans who had already bought ones with his old number on the back."

"Big-hearted Ipswich Town left back Tyrone Mings has seemingly paid off his mother's debts in his latest act of generosity"

"Ipswich youngster Tyrone Mings made headlines as he noticed that a fan on twitter was “too skint” to make it to the Bolton game, so sorted him out with tickets to the game"
