ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 2 February 2019
Villa hand a debut to Tyrone Mings as Dean Smith's revolution continues but they are held at the Madjeski. Having been in post for three months Dean Smith embarked on a clear out of the Villa squad he inherited, organising fresh loan spells for 6 players as well as bringing in and immediately loaning back French right back Frédéric Guilbert.
Centre back Mings Tyrone makes his Villa debut aged 26 after joining on loan from AFC Bournemouth until the end of the season. Mings becomes the 928th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Midfielder Tom Carroll makes his Villa debut aged 25 as a 74’ substitute after joining on loan from Swansea City until the end of the season. Carrol becomes the 927th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Another of Dean Smith’s signings Lovre Kalinić keeps his first clean sheet in his fifth game for the club having conceded 9 in the previous 4 to make it W1 D2 L2, 9 Goals Conceded, 1 Clean Sheet and 1 Booking so far in his Villa career.
Future Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez lined up for Reading whilst Tommy Elphick lined up for Villa against the club to whom he had been exiled by former boss Steve Bruce.
