    I don’t think Mitchell will be in the squad.
    For Wrexham or for Millwall U21s today?
    For Wrexham. I have heard from a player that he has fallen out with Jones.😀
    And a few weeks later Zach is on the bench

    Looking at Enslin getting game time at Dorking (a level he is probably above), I wonder if it would be worthwhile sending Zach on loan to Dorking for rest of the season seeing he isnt likely to feature for us.

    I get he is (likely) above that level but would be a good way to get him some game time and as long as he performs well boost his confidence?

    In terms of ability, our U21 is probably level with national league/national league south. Loans at that level is mainly to toughen players up, Mitchell has had SPL and League 2 experience he doesn’t need a taste of men’s football. It’s a waste of him either way playing in U21 or NL/NLS but at least being at the club he’s subject to higher level of coaching and can try and adapt to what Jones want

    Tbh I think coping physically would be why we would send him down there to "toughen up", we say he has been at SPL and league 2 but league 2 was two seasons ago and it didnt go great for numerous reasons and in the time in SPL he only played around 10 games.

    Either way I think for the lads own good we make a decision early whether he will be given the chance to impress here or we send him on loan early to the right level/team. How long has he got left on his contract?
