That is why i wanted him to stay because finding guys with the skill sets of Lamptey is really hardGesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Stats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 We were fucked up big time with his contract issue. How the hell we let this gem slipped through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wanted to start matches, but Azpi is our captain and RJ was our youth captain with CS experience, so Lamptey did not want to renew because he clearly is an intelligent guy. Chelsea would have wasted his time by playing Azpi and RJ all the time instead of him, even though his characteristics are hard to find in a full backGesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Stats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't it's Lampard fault all day and night for this one. Gave him a chance, impressed massively against Arsenal only to be sidelined afterwards. People talk about James but we could've converted him into midfield and keep Lamptey as RB. Nero and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Reece James who is literally one year older and is also a fantastic prospect. Lamps was bringing him in gradually too. He brought him on in a huge game against Arsenal when we were 1-0 down. But it is just Reece James. I am sure Lamptey would of loved to work under Lamps also. A lot of players in his position would hhave signed the contract we offered, so fair play to him. It is annoying but we actually couldnt do much more in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Well unfortunately this is the down side to having such a good academy, some will leave due to there not being enough room (Barca had the same 'problem' in peak La Masia days ala Thiago and Cesc).

Pizy 18,938 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 The main thing he's got that Reece doesn't is that hyper-aggressive mentality. Lamptey wants to take his man on every time he gets the ball and is always looking to sprint down the channels. Reece is more easy going and cautious. Think the only question that has to be answered for Lamptey is how well he holds up physically over a long season due to his tiny size. Once opponents figure out how good he is they'll start targeting him. We'll see if he can handle that. Lightning pace + confident, aggressive attitude is a deadly combo, though. ja1, kellzfresh and Vesper 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is he has an excellent, low centre of gravity. Saint-Maximim has ran against him a couple of times and Lamptey has done well and Wilson looked like he was in the clear and Lamptey made a brilliant challenge. Decent leap too. But yeah I love his hyper-aggressive mentality. A joy to watch. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
