Delivers seven crosses in draw Lamptey took two shots (one on target), created two chances, delivered seven crosses, made two clearances and committed three fouls in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Newcastle.

Impact Lamptey was not able to make it on the scoresheet Saturday but he still managed to rack up offensive stats. The defender had a great outing on the offensive end in his first start of the season with two shots, two chances created and seven crosses. He will look for another strong performance Saturday versus Aston Villa.

MATCHDAY: Brighton at Palace after impressive start to EPL

Brighton plays at Crystal Palace having taken a surprise 12 points from a possible 15 in the Premier League so far

Starts, goes 45 minutes midweek Lamptey started and went 45 minutes in Wednesday's Cup match against Swansea, producing three crosses.

Impact Lamptey is officially back from a hamstring injury, but he'll probably need another week or another appearance before he's ready to start in league play. At his peak, he was a nuisance on the right flank for Brighton and once he can get back his full fitness, he should figure into the starting XI.

Makes bench Sunday Lamptey (hamstring) was on the bench for Sunday's win against Leicester City.

Impact It's a great sign for Lamptey, as he inches closer to full fitness. His return will likely be gradual, meaning multiple bench appearances are possible before he's given a start, mainly because he's been out almost a year with this hamstring injury.

Edging closer to return Lamptey (hamstring) is "looking better and better each day," according to manager Graham Potter. "He's still on target to be involved in the Carabao Cup next week."

Impact Lamptey played 20 minutes in a friendly more than a week ago, so it's at least good that he hasn't suffered a recurrence. Brighton are taking their time with him given the length of his absence and there's no guarantee he'll be an option before the international break.

Stepping up recovery Lamptey (hamstring) played 20 minutes in an intrasquad friendly Tuesday and could be involved before the end of the month, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact Lamptey still only managed 20 minutes in a friendly, so he still has some ways to go before he's ready to compete in the Premier League. It appears his first appearance will come in a Cup match and then he'll slowly work up his fitness so he's ready for a league match, something that may not happen until October.

Continues to make progress Lamptey is making progress on his hamstring injury and is expected to ramp up training over the international break, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact Brighton are taking things as slow as possible given Lamptey's setbacks from this injury. He's been on the pitch for a couple weeks, but it looks like they'll use the break to ramp up his fitness and get him in training. If all goes well, he'll hope to be an option at some point in September.

Pictured on pitch Lamptey (hamstring) was pictured with the ball on the pitch Wednesday along with Danny Welbeck (hamstring).

Impact Lamptey is still projected to return to full training around the international break in a couple weeks, but it's a good sign that he's playing with the ball and on the pitch. He's slowly recovering from a lengthy hamstring injury and is unlikely to be pushed too soon given how the last eight months have gone.

Hopeful to train after break Lamptey (hamstring) is still doing rehab and "with a bit of luck after the international break," he'll return to training, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact This isn't an overly positive update on Lamptey, mainly because a possible return to training is still about a month away. It's been a weird injury and one that is pushing close to a full year after originally going down last December. He clearly tried to return too soon originally and now can't seem to get his hamstring right.

Unlikely to be fit for opener Lamptey (hamstring) is unlikely to be ready for the start of the Premier League season, according to The Athletic.

Impact Lamptey was training with the team, but it appears the injury isn't healing as fast as was hoped. Brighton's manager Graham Potter is understandably cautious with the midfielder noting, "It's important that we just stay patient and do the right things for him, make sure we finish off this last stage of his rehab in a good way." It appears that Brighton are playing the long game with Lamptey and will ease him back into the team later in the season.

Taking part in preseason Lamptey (hamstring) has joined his team in early preseason, roughly a month before the season starts, reports The Athletic.

Impact This is a great sign for Lamptey, who hasn't featured for Brighton since December because of ongoing hamstring issues. If he can get a few friendlies under his belt before the new campaign, there's a decent chance he'll be ready for the starting XI come Aug. 14 against Burnley.

Running on pitch Lamptey is back running on the grass this week, following a lengthy lay off from a hamstring injury.

Impact Lamptey tried to come back too soon multiple times from a hamstring injury, but this time he took more than two months before returning to the pitch. He last appeared in December and hopes to get back his fitness over the next couple months ahead of the new campaign. After making 11 starts this season, he looks set to explode in the new campaign, assuming he stays at Brighton.
