Starts against Crystal Palace Mings started and played the full 90 in Wednesday's 2-1 Carabao Cup loss to Crystal Palace.
Impact Mings received his first start in over a year Wednesday, with the defender returning to the starting XI for the first time since tearing his ACL last August. This is great news for the club, as he was a high-quality defender before his injury and should still compete for minutes on this team. That said, he will look to continue in the starting role, although he will have to beat out the likes of Pau Torres, Ezri Konsa and Diego Carlos.

Impact Mings is now in fully team training daily as he completes his rehab from a knee injury. The defender won't be back for a Saturday clash with Wolves, but a return to the bench against Ipswich in the final match of September isn't out of the question. Mings could push Pau Torres for the starting center-back job when he's fully fit.

Impact Mings is still in individual training, but he is getting ever closer to a return to full training. After suffering a major ACL injury there's no guarantee Mings will be rushed back, even when he's back in training.

Working on recovery Mings continues to build strength and work on his recovery following a torn ACL.

He's not expected to return this season given that he's only in the gym and building strength in his knee in late March. If all goes well, he may be in light training in a month or two, but it'll likely take a few months before he's ready to take part in a match.

Knee requires surgery Mings sustained a "significant knee injury" in Saturday's opener and will be out months after he undergoes surgery.
Impact This was thought to be the case for Mings and it's unfortunately the second knee surgery required from a regular starter for Villa the first week of the season. While they had decent depth entering the campaign, that's already diminishing, as Pau Torres and Diego Carlos will get chances for more time without Mings on the back line. Mings had started at least 33 matches each of the last four seasons for Villa.

Injures knee Saturday Mings was carried off in the first half with a possible knee injury in Saturday's match against Newcastle.
Impact It doesn't look like a great injury for Mings, who couldn't do much on his leg and was carried off in tears. While Villa have more depth than last season, it could be the second severe knee injury for them in the last couple days, following the news on Emiliano Buendia. Pau Torres came on for him Saturday and will likely start next to Ezri Konsa going forward with Diego Carlos an option from the bench.

Impact Mings had some ups and downs here and there but made a fantastic partnership with Ezri Konsa at the heart of the defense overall and finished the campaign in style, with one goal, 45 clearances and 13 interceptions over his last eight starts. If Villa wants to take another step forward and finally earn a place on continental competition, Mings' performances will probably have a great say on their fate.

Impact Mings had plenty to do behind the ball throughout Saturday's draw, piling on major defensive volume throughout. The center-back has remained a consistent option defensively with 154 clearances and 52 interceptions in 34 starts. Mings is a cornerstone of the defense and a nailed-on start to close out the Premier League.
