I hope he doesn't bulk up too much in the coming years. Stay slight up top and keep the speed and power in the legs.

I'm not one to go ott on a player and hope people don't as the next step is to usually knock him back down.

However he really impressed me against Moldova. Very good use of the ball, great positional play and considering his size he wasn't knocked about to much.

He's only going to get better. I know Liverpool fans really rate him!

Remember Glen Hoddle?

He scored on his debut for Spurs at the age of 17. The following season he bulked up another 17 lbs. Didn't do him any harm.

I was also very impressed with his positional play and use of the ball as well as his determination to 'make something happen'

Word has it there is another Welsh Wonder kid just about to emerge from Chelsea's academy. :thumbup:

I remember his dad "Kwame Ampadu" playing. He used to play for Swansea. It sounds as though Ethan might be able to play for Ghana, Wales or the Republic of Ireland (who his dad played for). Hope he chooses Wales!

Wasn't he on the bench against Moldova? That says to me he's picked Wales already.

Coleman needs to bring him on in the next game even if its for a minute.

The Blades winger who came on against us and played really well, Brooks, is also Welsh. Ampadu highly rated .....England after him.
