This is his chance to shine, great to see & good luck to him. Just one thing Ethan - if you’re thinking of clattering someone tonight, make sure it’s not Ben please!

Noticable lack of finger pointing from him so far

Unprecedented disaster, recall him ASAP.

Ethan Ampadu's first half performance vs Tottenham Touches - 69 (most on the pitch) Accurate passes - 64 (most on the pitch) Pass accuracy - 96% The 19-year-old is looking at home in London... #TOTRBL

EXCELLENT defending by Ethan Ampadu saves Leipzig. They send men forward for a break and Steven Berwijn has a chance to run in on goal as Spurs counter but Ampadu tackles him on the edge of the box.

Did not look out of place in a very good side. Hopefully that’s earned him plenty more starts between now and June.

Brilliant performance. Hope he gets more minutes from here on in. Shame Leipzig have Upemecano (and others) to come back in. Still, done himself the world of good. Especially considering the opponant and occasion.

I missed the second half, only half watched the first. Saw him miss a long ball and had to be bailed out. Quite surprised to hear he did well.

Especially considering the opponant and occasion. I know nothing about Leipzig. Just wondering are all those talked-about injuries not in the middle of the park? Ethan played Saturday (as well as today) as FB. It felt that it was a back four on Saturday and a back three today.

Looked like his CB partner gave him a call on that one, as Ampadu sort of ducked out of the way. Aside from that though no dodgy moments, really composed on the ball often dribbling the ball out into midfield, and solid defensively. Great performance.

Barring injury Ampadu will become one of our greatest ever players.
This season has been disappointing but he has just played a last 16 champions league game and been one of the better players. This us after hardly playing this season. He is only 19.
Personally think we could play a back 3 with Rodon and Mepham going forward with Davies and Roberts/ William's as wing backs.

I'm not sure Davies would make a good wing back but has proved to be an excellent left sided CB in a back three. Playing 3/5 at the back limits the number of attackers we can field which is where we are relatively strong at the moment. It might be worth that sacrifice away to top teams though.

Ethan Amps did himself no harm at all with his, on the whole, solid performance for Leipzig last night.
Qs: Might he be better off staying at Leipzig next year too, rather than being a fringe player at Chelsea?
Are season-long loans ever extended (or do they have to become permanent moves, if the player and the club are interested in his staying on?)

Can't imagine anyone wants that loan extended given how rarely he's been given opportunities.

Great video of his performance:
..and to think the waistcoat wanker Southgate picked Lloris as MOTM. Them grapes must be very sour.

Only saw the last 20 mins or so but he hardly put a foot wrong.
Some pinpoint crossfield passes and a great goal saving tackle at the end when he was suffering from cramp.
Commentators were creaming over him.

From RB Liepzig presser:
Julian #Nagelsmann:
"Against Spurs, @ethanamp4 proved that we can use him. Whether he plays against Schalke depends on the situation of other players. There's no reason for Upamecano not to play. However, it might be the case that Ethan plays tomorrow”.
Not sure what to make of it. Nice to see the gaffer now has faith in him though
Also, one of their defensive midfielders is a doubt/injured...
On the bench 😢. At least Rabbi starts. Here’s hoping for an early Rabbi goal, a slight defensive injury for Liepzig, and an Ampadu clean sheet!

That's a very harsh assessment, he was great in the first half and faultless in the second. His distribution was incredible all game Not really an assessment, like I said I was half watching the first half whilst doing other things, didn’t see any of the second half. The moment that stood out was him getting done by a long ball, I was surprised to hear he got good reviews.

Bloody hell, it’s going to plague his career isn’t it? Why is Cymru so injury prone!

It’s already been reported he won’t play for Leipzig again due to the on going back problems.
Starting to get a bit concerned about that tbh.
