Last season we shouldn’t underestimate Gary Cahills influence and guidance which helped him massively with his introduction to the first team. This season he has 2 x new centre backs to get used to and a new style of play under PV. I’m confident he is the best choice for left back, give him time….

The thing is everybody is learning at the same time and trying to find their feet at the same time. Mitchell learning in a new system and being a first choice Why people are over critical after each game is too reactionary. It will take time with mistakes that are punished mixed with mistakes that are not punished. It’s early days let them settle into the playing style alongside understanding the strengths and weaknesses of their team mates. We wanted a new era - this is it - give it time !

Nicely put Nubes.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

I know this will be unpopular opinion with a lot of fans but I genuinely believe we need a new left back. Mitchell is a decent defender and excellent 1 v 1 but he is shocking with the ball at his feet and it really holds us back in a lot of instances. The amount of times he miss places or over hits an easy pass is criminal. In today’s game we need more than a decent defender.

over the last week i have read a few tweets from dickhead c***y palace fans knocking him. i would like to show my support for the kids learning to play under a new manager…for clarity 1) he is not s*** lets support the future of the club not put them down! if you are a palace fan putting him down give your head a wobble & wake up. Edited by braunstoneagle (25 Aug 2021 8.26pm) Either radio 5 or Talk Sport today forgotten which one it was were discussing him as a future England international, anyone who can't see how promising he is is completely barmy.

He is improving but still not good enough. We need new fullbacks on both sides.

If you believe Mitchell is close to an England cap then you are completely barmy. He will never get an England cap with the players he is up against in that position.
