Aston Villa captain John McGinn admits there's major concern for Tyrone Mings after their thrashing at Newcastle.
Mings was stretchered off during the 5-1 defeat.
McGinn said: "Tyrone is a huge player for us.
"A leader. After losing Emi [Buendia], it is a bitter bow and we are keeping our fingers crossed for him. It is devastating to see him like that.
"Pau [Torres] comes in, we've spent a lot of money to recruit him, and we have no excuses."
