After returning from injury 9 months later, Lamptai was still the "small steel cannon" of the side. In the Premier League in the early morning of the 19th, facing the old owner Chelsea, he contributed 7 successful confrontations and 4 successful passes, "torturing" Marcos Alonso. As an excellent representative of Chelsea's youth, his talent has been recognized by the vast majority of people, but Reese James was in front of him like a "big mountain" at that time. Leaving Chelsea doesn't mean running away, he's already running out of his own piece of the sky at Brighton.

Lampteay vs. Bellerin data comparison
Lamphuthai was born into a Ghanaian family in Hillingdon, London, just a 45-minute drive from Stamford Bridge and a 30-minute drive from Chelsea's Cobham base. Lampte likes Alves and Luo Jr., and also uses Ashley Cole and Essien as his role models. When they joined the Chelsea Academy at the age of 8, the whole family was very happy, and there is no doubt that this is a milestone event for this "hit worker family".
Although the family conditions are not superior, Lampoutai's parents are very unusual. The Mirror has revealed that Lampte's father has a good relationship with former Chelsea director Emmenaro, and his mother even had military experience.
Lampte, who has grown steadily in Chelsea's youth training, first won the U18 league title with Gallagher, Rees James and others, and then won four youth championships in the 17-18 season. There is no doubt that this batch of Chelsea youth training is full of talent. After Lampard took over the Chelsea coaching position in danger, a "youth storm" was blown. Lampte made his first-team debut off the bench in the London derby against Arsenal in December 2019. He also became the seventh young player to be named under Lampard.
Emerging in the first team does not mean that he can stand, because he has not only the veteran Azpilicueta, but also the "Zhan Huang". Rees James had played alongside Lamptey in the youth team, but the former had to "high" Lampteay in an echelon, and had better appearances and comprehensive qualities in the first team. When the youth team was in the youth team, Lamptai, who constantly listened to the guidance of Reece James, obviously understood that the gap between the two sides was widening after the "brother" experienced the first team game earlier. "Zhan Huang" is the "big mountain" where his first team has a stable debut opportunity.
Lampte's choice is to leave the team! After he refused to renew Chelsea's contract, he was interested in him by domestic and foreign teams such as Paris, Wolves, Lille, Nice, Brighton and Turin. Moreover, Brighton, Lille and Turin all sent sincere offers. Lamptey chose Brighton because the "Seagulls" at the time lacked an aggressive flashpoint in the right-back position, giving the first team a chance to play.
Under Graham Porter, Lampte's characteristics on the offensive end were fully exploited, and he became a beautiful landscape in the Premier League. However, due to the "kicking and kicking", he suffered hamstring and muscle strains at Brighton, and in March 2021, a severe hamstring injury caused him to leave the game for 9 months. But after recovering from injury, Lamptai did not "lose everyone", he is still a super explosive point on the side. In the early morning game against Chelsea in the early morning of the 19th, he successfully played 6 times in 8 confrontations, 6 times and 4 times successfully, completely suppressing Marcos Alonso.
After Brighton played well, he has already had scandals with bayern, Arsenal, Manchester United and many other big teams.
Lampte can be a right-back, right-wing-back, and with good offensive qualities, he can also make a cameo appearance as a right-wing forward.
Lampteay's course heatmap for the last 2 seasons
Due to his height of only 163cm, Lampte is a very "special" player, with shortcomings and advantages that are very prominent.
1. Short board
Due to his height flaws, his shortcomings in high-altitude defense are very large, so he needs to rely more on his teammates when defending the low-side high-altitude ball. That is, the full-back who is close to him in the three systems, or the back in the four-back system, the back has to go back to the box to help. Moreover, once he is stuck behind his opponent in a defensive confrontation, he will be very embarrassed.
In addition, Lampouti's "end" job is not good. To put it bluntly, his crosses were not accurate enough. This is also determined by his physical shortcomings, his stride is smaller, and once there is not enough space to work, his cross success rate under pressure will drop significantly. For example, he has averaged only 0.6 successful crosses per game this season (19% success rate).
Lamptai's crossing ability is not too good
2, explosiveness, flexibility, speed
Lampteay's explosiveness, speed, and agility are terrifying. Moreover, willpower, teamwork, and individual confrontation qualities in sports are very good.
Lampte has ball and no ball speed in attack and defense
Facing the old owner Chelsea, Lampte completed a very "explosive" personal advance in the face of multiple obstructions after defending the broken ball, and in addition, last season, against Newcastle, Lampte showed a very good speed of recovery when the set-piece attack was delayed.
3. The improvement and change of confrontation
The obvious physical disadvantage does not mean that Lamptai is "white" in the confrontation, because his center of gravity is low, the core strength is good, and the confrontation in the displacement process is excellent. In the last two seasons, his number of ground confrontations has shown a downward trend (5.3 to 4.5), but the success rate has risen from 54% to 57%; more importantly, his average loss of ball per 90 minutes has decreased from 15.8 to 9.9.
Lamptey successfully confronted St. Maxima
In the ball-holding confrontation, Lampte has improved more obviously in 2 seasons: his average turnover has increased from 1.2 to 1.4 times per game, and the success rate has risen from 45% to 53%. This shows that Lampte is reducing his impact on the ball (perhaps due to injury considerations), but his offensive efficiency is indeed improving. The average key pass or assist data per game is still "slightly underserved", in addition to the quality of its own crosses is not good, in part because Brighton lacks a strong finishing ability of the front.
Lampte's cross from the back post was not up to par with Mopai's handling in the penalty area
Lamptai's development template is not Reece James, because the physical quality of "Zhan Huang" is very explosive, except for the explosiveness and speed is not as good as Lamptai, other skills are fully ahead. Putting aside the height shortcomings, Lampte is more like Ashraf or Bellerin at his peak.
In terms of speed ability, Lamptai is not weak compared with Ashraf and Bellerin, and his physical confrontation quality is also close. What is lacking is the comprehensive ability of technology and vision. These can be accumulated and rectified through competitions.
Brighton manager Potter: He's so fast that while threatening the entire backline, he can do his defensive job well. I've talked a lot about his personality – he just wants to improve himself, keep learning, and it's refreshing to work with him.
Teammate Mo Pai: Lamptai is everywhere, this child has no upper limit, he is only 19 years old, it is already such a high level.
Neville: Lampte's standard and the matching he has demanded of a full-back in modern football is incredible. Not just defensively, but also deliver assists, score goals, and do the things that determine the outcome of the game.
