Tyrone Mings turned back the clock vs Newcastle - and Unai Emery may need him to do it again

Harking back to the 2015/16 season isn’t recommended at Aston Villa. No-one needs to relive that trauma.
Yet Tyrone Mings pulled at the remnants of a decade-old thread in the aftermath of Villa’s 1-0 win over Newcastle United.
The defender knows better than most the legacy of that relegation season, primarily because Villa were still in the second tier when he joined the club in 2019.
Since then he’s become a club great. Remember the train station photo, when Mings, nearly 24 hours on from Villa’s Play-Off final heroics was still wearing his matchday shirt?
