That is bad. Lucky it was just his nose and face and not anything to his eyes. Mings has form as well as he stamped on zlatan I think it was.

I would like to believe its not

Its worth noting you slow anything down and its worse than it is

I know this isn't related but my cousin was driving and a bird fell from a tree in front of us, as the bird was falling bang in the middle of the lan, it tried to land and fly. My cousin swerved from the lane the and went towards the other lane and the bird fell and flapped to the other lane. My cousin accidentally ran it over.

This all happened in less than a second. If someone recorded it and slowed down, it would look like he purposely drove over it but unless he super human, there is no way you could have the precision and foresight to kill the bird on purpose whilst driving at 40mph

Mings is running and isn't in control of his body in the air. Unless he knew the other player is going to put their head there, its hard to try and aim for a stamp after you have taken off

Deliberate (although I’m sure he didn’t mean to cause as much damage as he did)

He has form on this as well. Got found guilty of stamping not long ago

He’s made a serious mess of his opponents face. That is some force he’s stamped down on him with.

Deliberate all day long, unbalanced you don’t put your leg down like that, but forward and if about to stand on a face you take the fall - simple.

Has previous too.

Anyone who has played at any level knows you leave the boot in here and there, but not on a face.

Looks to me like he shortens his stride to put his foot in the other guy's face.

IMO he could have easily extended his right leg to go over the opponent. He even looks down before stamping on him. Should be a big suspension.

FA aren’t doing anything about it as ref saw it and took no action.

Disgusting really and really feel for the club.

Recently made wholesale changes from top to bottom, got put loads of first teamers (huge squad) and went out for strong loan players - this fella being one of them.

Relegation battle and now without the main striker literally two days after the window shut.
I’ll be absolutely gutted if they go down at the end of the season, selfishly because of the impact it may have on the academy status and my boys development.

Looks deliberate to me. He sort of adjusts his stride/leg before stomping down with extra force. It's not the natural way his stride would've happened.

Just watched it. I don't think it's deliberate, slow-mo makes it a lot worse - sometimes the brain doesn't act fast enough to stop your body doing something. Like when you drop an object in front of you and somehow end up stepping on it despite desperately trying not to.

If it WAS deliberate though...lifetime ban and a prison sentence.

Im inclined to believe its unintentional. you'd have to be a serious thug to deliberately stamp a face like that.

Compare the reaction of Oliveira to that of the Rangers striker last night, who caught a glancing boot to the side of the head, then went down and rolled around like Neymar/Salah. He got up without a single scratch on him, and got shown a red card.

Looking at it, personally I think its deliberate. Lets looks at the evidence, previously banned for stamping on Zlatans head, Mings is also an ex-Ipswich player stamping on the face of a Norwich player. It he did mean to do it, and only he knows for sure, that's some serious thuggery. Olivera is lucky he didn't lose an eye.

How many times a week does a player get his faced stamped on in the 4 divisions? Mings has done it twice in two seasons, he should be banned.
