# ‘Love this kid!’: Fans React to Tyrick Mitchell Documentary

Palace fans have been affectionately showering young left-back Tyrick Mitchell with praise after the club released a mini-documentary charting the player’s rise from humble origins to a breakout Premier League player.

The documentary was released in conjunction with 30-year-old experienced full-back Joel Ward’s [positive appraisal](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2020/october/joel-ward-discusses-tyrick-mitchells-immediate-impact/) of Mitchell. Ward has been partnered on his opposite side by the former Brentford academy product, and routinely praised him for the attributes he exhibits as a character.

Ward was evidently impressed as he spoke in [the matchday programme](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2020/october/joel-ward-discusses-tyrick-mitchells-immediate-impact/) interview for the Brighton clash a few weeks ago, as re-published via the official club website:

“T is, first and foremost, a great lad,” said the full-back in his positive appraisal. “He has got an incredibly bright future ahead of him.

“In the games he has played he has shown a great level of maturity in his performances. The way in which he takes things on board through the tactical meetings and tactical play. I think sometimes as a young player it can all be glitz and glam and all a bit daunting.”

A sense of pride tinged many comments as the club looked back at Mitchell’s origins. The documentary [can be watched here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92oK-dSq2lY), and features exclusive interviews with former coaches, club staff and of course, Mitchell himself.

Unfortunately for Mitchell, Hodgson has indicated he[is a serious doubt](https://www.football.london/crystal-palace-fc/tyrick-mitchell-palace-injury-news-19187240) ahead of Palace’s Friday night clash away with Wolves, due to a training knock.

Palace fans didn’t hold back with their comments as they offered warm praise for the 20-year-old left-back:
