# Crystal Palace: Fans praise Tyrick Mitchell’s first-half display

**A number of Crystal Palace fans have praised Tyrick Mitchell on social media for his first-half display against Manchester City.**

Roy Hodgson made [two changes](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/live/crystal-palace-man-city-live-stream-score-b1840664.html) from the defeat to Leicester City last time out, with Mitchell and Andros Townsend coming in for Patrick van Aanholt and Jordan Ayew.

The 21-year-old came in for his [14th](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tyrick-mitchell/leistungsdaten/spieler/730893) league start of the campaign and [first since the win over Brighton back in February](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tyrick-mitchell/leistungsdaten/spieler/730893).

Palace went into the game in [13th](https://www.premierleague.com/tables) place, knowing a shock win over Pep Guardiola’s side would take them over 40 points.

Mitchell, valued at [£4.5m by Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tyrick-mitchell/profil/spieler/730893), has made just [18](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tyrick-mitchell/leistungsdaten/spieler/730893) appearances for Palace and is coming up against [City winger Ferran Torres](https://www.sofascore.com/crystal-palace-manchester-city/hr) at Selhurst Park.

Prior to kick-off, Mitchell averaged a Premier League match rating of [6.61/10 this season](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/162/Show/England-Crystal-Palace), as per [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/162/Show/England-Crystal-Palace) – and it seems as if numerous Palace fans think he’s putting in a solid shift.
