[Albion] Do you play Lamptey tomorrow?

[Bombardier]

My old dad used to say to me "if you are good enough you carry on doing it". Would seem a huge shame not to start him. I think he would be better suited to the United game rather than Norwich. Besides did he not leave Chelski in an effort to play regular first team football?

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Yes 100%. I can see no rational argument for leaving him out, the boy is clearly a bit special and ready for this.

 

[Seasidesage]

As well as playing out this season we also need to start planning for next. The boy needs game time and experience. Putting him in against better players is the key to development..

 

[Javeaseagull]

With Duffy likely to start we need pace at the back to cover him. Lamptey starts for me.

 

[vagabond]

It's just normal. Very rare for teenagers to get an uninterrupted run of games in the Premier League.

I expect he will be one of the players who is rotated in and out for the rest of the season

Exactly.

Especially with Potter.

Think Connolly and Alzate, and I believe Daniel James at Swansea. GP doesn’t like to play kids in consecutive games.

I would love to see Lamptey start tonight though.

 

[Frankie]

Absolutely, he played very well on debut and apart from one rash tackle , which I still liked , benching him for this game would send out a negative signal to the player I feel , Potter will play him or risk the wrath of the NSC bovver boys .

Play him tonight, rest against against Norwich......then bring him back for Liverpool to face off vs Mane

I'm probably being hypercritical but it does rankle when I see a boss calling a 19 year old, a kid and a boy. 18 is the age of majority in this country. An inexperienced young man, yes, but he isn't a child.

With the 5 subs and Norwich game close at hand I continue my usually doomed attempts to predict Potter and say he'll come on at half time

HIja

 

[Swansman]

I would, but I doubt he will start. More likely against Norwich.

 

[Robinjakarta]

No, we don't play him. Potter does or not and knows best, so let's support whatever decision he makes. Fantastic debut and look forward to seeing more of him as we will.

Hopefully Utd are knackered. Bring him on with 30 mins left to tear them apart and give him a full game against Norwich.
