Tyrone Mings

PitchKeep Take · The Premier

Tyrone Mings is a defender for Aston Villa, age 33, £4.5m. The Premier ranks him 215th overall by splitting Sleeper BPL 2025 (#304, 22.8 points) with the consensus of 3 other boards (239.67). The industry still has him 64 spots ahead of the 2025/26 Sleeper count. The Premier pays that reputation something, not everything. Brand does not outrun a down year, and a down year does not erase a player Aston Villa still builds around.

The 2025/26 Premier League line is 15 starts and 1322 minutes, 0 goals and 1 assists, 3 clean sheets, 23 goals against, 5 tackles and 102 CBI. Official FPL scored it at 50 points (2.9 per match) with 4 bonus. Sleeper's table turned the same counting stats into 22.8. Defenders get 10 a goal, 7 an assist, 6 a clean sheet, and −2 a goal against. CBI at 0.4 and tackles at 1 are how a centre-back cracks the overall 50.

Underlying: 1.3 xG, 0.42 xA, 1.72 xGI. The defensive events are the floor: 5 tackles, 102 clearances/blocks/interceptions, 3 shutouts. Sleeper is built to notice that. ICT and xGI boards are not, which is why a centre-back's spread on this board is usually ugly and still informative. The friendliest board is FPL Form at 34; the coldest is Sleeper BPL 2025 at 304.

Market: £4.5m, 8 boards on the file. Price is the FPL tax, not the rank. The Premier is who produced and who the boards still believe. FPL's own EP-next is 1.7. ICT 46.8.

Instruction: he is on the 400, which is already a statement, and he is not a star. Stash in Sleeper if the minutes are real. Do not let a Pitch screenshot make you start him over a Premier top-80. Nearby on The Premier: Andrey Santos, Vitaly Janelt, Olivier Boscagli. Versus The Pitch (Sleeper-only #304), the hybrid moves him up to #215. That move is the third list doing its job.

Age 33 is not a moral failing and it is not invisible. Youth-lean boards (The Athletic-style remap on this board) push him down; veteran-rating boards (WhoScored, SofaScore) keep him up. The Premier averages those instincts instead of pretending a 33-year-old defender is 24. If you need a three-year window, look younger. If you need 2026/27, he just played 1322 minutes and that still counts.

Full-backs and centre-backs separate on this board by attacking events. 0 goals and 1 assists are how a defender outruns his GA column. Without those, you are betting 3 clean sheets and the CBI stream (102) against 23 goals against at −2 a piece. Aston Villa's 2026/27 defensive shape is therefore half of this player's rank. The other half already happened, across 15 starts.

How to use the file: The Pitch is the Sleeper-only 400 (he is #304 there). The Premier is the 50/50 with every other board we track. Attack, Midfield, Defence, and Keepers re-rank the same Sleeper table by position. BK Value on this page follows The Premier when you are on the hybrid calculator and The Pitch when you are on the Sleeper calculator. Same curve either way - 12,000 at 1.01.
