"...I came back and found myself playing within myself because I didn't want to make mistakes and didn't want to put any unnecessary pressure on myself. They're things that are nothing to do with football – they're just a mentality.”

“He thinks he’s made it now”, “he’s better than he is”. These are comments I used to read on several posts when his form dipped. It just goes to show how powerful, yet damaging social media can be. CHOOSE YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY - we’re all aware of the serious impact it can have.
Most of us fans follow players closely and we somewhat have an understanding of what they’re like as people. Those who made claims that Mings ‘believed his own hype’ were deluded. So before jumping on a bandwagon, just stop and think about the implications your actions can have.
You never really know a person, and you most definitely won’t understand what they’re going through internally.
Moral of the story: BE KIND, ALWAYS.
