Clean sheets

2.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 40 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (8th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 84.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.2, Mitchell carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One (top 16%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
