Output in context · Millwall finished 3rd of 24 · an upper-table side
3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 48.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 63.3, Mitchell carries the 12th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship (top 19%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
