Crystal Palace defender Tyrick Mitchell says the players must step up in the absence of Wilfried Zaha.
With Zaha sidelined through a hamstring injury, a 2-0 loss at Leeds last night made it 17 defeats from Palace's last 19 Premier League games without their talisman.
“Of course he is a big player, one of our best players so it will always be difficult without him," Mitchell said of Zaha.
“But we have good enough players to step in when he's not there.
“We had a strong enough team on the pitch and a good bench. It was just a disappointing performance."
