Tyrick Mitchell

It’s a shame a Herman the German clearly doesn’t fancy him for England

Agreed but Herman wouldn't notice a bacon sandwich at a bar mitzfa the useless c***!

My view is that Mitchell's England problem is that for 95% of England games you don't have to be a very good defender as England qualify so easily and mostly face a low block so there isn't much defending to be done. Attacking ability is more valued for the left back to make the extra player to defeat the defences sitting in.

The issue then comes in the tournaments and you play the top international teams at the top of their game. Then you need a defender. And there isn't one in the squad or they haven't been given enough games to have the necessary experience. Look at the disaster on the left of the defence against Argentina with Messi given free reign.

Up until now Mitchell has not had the consistency of quality crossing or finishing. Maybe those goals yesterday and the reality of him becoming one of the senior players at the club will help. Chilwell may help too so Tyrick gets some rest and maybe some competition for the starting line up will drive his attacking standards up.

He really is a credit to the club.

He really is.

Cant imaging him going on strike either!

I know as palace fans we’re going to be a tad biased, he’s one of our own and all that, but I think what was frustrating was that despite it being a problem position for England, TM didn’t even get a sniff of a chance, totally over looked. I think he’s massively improved since Glasner took over. He was doing his best Munoz impression yesterday getting forward 🤣

He's been the one LB/LWB who has generally kept the top wingers such as Salah and Saka quiet. I recall one game in which Saka was subbed because Ty marked him out of the game.

Probably not the 5-0 defeat 🤣
