Crystal Palace defender Tyrick Mitchell admits 2022 was a special year for him.

Mitchell earned an England squad call and also played at Wembley for the first time.

"In football, you know you always have to do more," he told Palace's website. You have to do better than the next player, and then the next player, and then the next player, so that's just something I aim to do.

2022 was an amazing year for me. There were a lot of things I ticked off that maybe I didn't think I would tick off so early. It was a proud year: getting called up by England and going to Wembley [for the FA Cup semi-finals] with Palace

But it's hard to look back on it all when you're still playing, because every day is a new day. I feel like, at the end of my career, I'll look back on those achievements and feel proud of myself, but for now it's just about ticking off the next box."
