Roy has a dilemma because Jairo has been one of the better players in pre-season so LB may be a way of including him if he insists of having two experienced CDMs (MacArthur plus either Luka or McCarthy). However, that leaves Mitchell wondering what he's done wrong. He's very much on a learning curve. Will be interesting to see what Roy does and it's nice to have this kind of problem.

I completely agree. At least we actually have a squad of twenty five this year. Last season against Liverpool, when we couldn't even field a full bench was embarrassing.

To my mind, Mitchell is a bit below the required level. On the ball he's okay if a touch panicky. Off it, he's positionally questionable and very reticent about (and not great at) tackling.

Maybe because he's a kid, a Palace kid, i watch him with an overly critical eye. But he makes me nervous. awb was unspectacular with the ball, but defending one on one he was as quick as a snake from the very start.

I'm definitely not saying he can't make it. But to my eye he's not ready now. I guess if Roy sticks with him, I'm wrong. Because he's not the kind to play in unready youth team players willy nilly.

 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.
