I think we would have seen him under Frank is he was ‘that good’ but again who knows. Not doubting he has potential but whilst Leeds may not be the worst move, its hardly outstanding either as theres no given he will play much more there than here really. Don’t think he will play regularly there this season at least anyway, although if he does fair enough. 

Livramento going to Brighton when Lamptey is there, is 100% a stupid move though. If he wants to play, going to a team who have another young RB - who had to leave us in the first place at to get first team football and is only 20 years old - who will likely be their first choice, well its stupidity. But again, fair play.

Lot of talk that Sterling has impressed Tuchel in training so we will see how it goes with regards to if losing these 2 is as bad as people seem to think. Bate nowhere near the first team regardless so can’t see the fuss for the next 2/3/4 seasons at least and Livramento well we’ve got James who is vastly superior as it is and the most sensible long term option looking at our squad for RB/RWB.

It probably means either a) Lamptey is going or b) his injury issues aren't getting any better.

how much did we get for him? any buy back clause? what is it with these academy players running away from Chelsea lately?

He had only a year left on his contract and he's a youth player. What do you expect?

There were others - West Ham, Liverpool, Brighton - that also wanted Bate but he chose Leeds.

Aye would think so. If Lamptey doesn’t go though means he will probably be their back up RB. Which he could have just stayed and gone on loan perhaps.

He signed only 3 years contract.

What exactly is a sell on clause?

Should Leeds sell him, we'll receive a portion of the fee.

Weren't we giving Leeds £6m 15 years ago for three academy players?

Hopefully it is sufficient where the club doesn’t regret it too much in case he becomes a great player.
