Ethan Ampadu, oh my word. His energy... his football intelligence, his technique. Do you remember him early doors at Chelsea? It was so different at Chelsea because he was a centre-half who was good on the ball, now he's playing centre-midfield and dictating play. He's been amazing.
The 27-year-old has done quite well since joining Leeds at the start of the season, and he has attracted the attention of multiple Premier League clubs. According to Football Insider, Liverpool could look to make a move for him after the departure of Ibrahima Konate.

After Chelsea had surrendered a two-goal lead, Moises Caicedo surged into the right side of the penalty area and delivered a perfectly weighted low cross across the face of the six-yard box. Unmarked and standing just a yard out, Palmer seemed certain to tap home for his fifth goal in two matches. However, the 23-year-old shocked everyone as he failed to connect with the ball properly, sending it high over the crossbar into the Shed End.
Pascal Struijk will definitely miss this game; he has problems with his hip flexor. [Anton] Stach will be back, probably just for the [Aston] Villa game. Apart from this, I hope to have everyone available. You miss a player with red-hot form. Pascal was a rock in the last weeks. He is the only left-footed centre-back. If you play with three at the back, it makes a difference. A right-footed player has different passing angles.
Illan Meslier has been linked with a move away from Leeds United in recent months. The French goalkeeper has fallen down the pecking order at the English club, and he needs to leave in order to play more often. Sitting on the bench at Leeds United will not benefit him. He has been linked with Turkish club Besiktas. The Turkish outfit is hoping to sign the player before the winter transfer window closes, but the player is reluctant to move to Turkey (h/t Leeds Live).
They had more possession in the second half, but we had some control of the ball. The feeling is we still had more expected goals, more shots, and we weren't far from winning. Overall, a good performance from my lads. We need to control the offensive game. We didn't allow any chances in the first half. It was great for the boys to create situations, and they should've scored. It was an excellent away performance.
