Title: Kaine Kesler Hayden
Post by: Swindonlad on August 05, 2021, 03:26:07 PM
Afternoon All

Thought I would pop on and have a look at your thoughts on the young lad we have loaned from you and it seems like we may have a gem on our hands. I thought if you wanted I would post how he is doing now and then for you and keep you updated. If it is against some forum rules or something my apologies.

Some exciting signings you guys have made this summer.

Good luck for the season

He looks very decent to me mate. I actually thought he was good enough to back up Matty Cash this season, but this loan seems sensible.

Look after him!

KKH looks like a very good prospect.
I'm sure we'd love to hear your thoughts as the season progresses.
Good luck - you guys seem to need it with dodgy owners and poor finances.

Welcome Swindonlad - yes, would be great to hear how he's getting on from time to time, if you don't mind popping by every now and again.

He's part of a group of youth products that the club has very high hopes for (we gave him a 5-year contract this summer).  Apart from the Liverpool FA Cup game (where he acquitted himself well), he's not had any real experience in what you might call first-team men's football (if you don't count U23 games), but he looked very promising indeed in the FA Youth Cup win last season.  Very tidy on the ball, and quite quick. Likes to attack, so very much in the mould of a modern full-back - but not really sure how Swindon play, so it might be you'll want him to behave differently to how he did for the teams here.

I'm always wary of very young defenders going out on loan, because a mistake due to inexperience in defence is far more costly than elsewhere on the pitch, but if he acclimatises well, then you'll have a real asset on your hands for the season ahead.

Sorry to hear about your club's troubles. I still fondly recall goal-machine Fjortoft and the Robin's one season in the PL.

Was also sad to hear that Oasis Leisure Centre in Swindon has fallen victim to the pandemic and has closed permanently. It was the place Oasis took their name from. I also had tickets to see the Human League there next December (every other gig on their tour was seated. Eff that. Not all their fans are 60+ with shit hips).

Cheers for the warm welcome guys. The Fjortoft and Oasis ones are still fond ones for me.

The good news for us is we have recently been taken over and the former owners who tried to put us out of business are now no longer in control or near the club so it is a really exciting time albeit in a poor league. The young lad has joined us now when the town is buzzing and we have something to look forward to again with a whole new management team also

Lets hope i am posting a few positive updates your way regarding him as the noises i am hearing is he is a real talent

I didn't realise that you got new owners! We had the same owner in Waterford. He saddled us with a Kevin Sheedy / Mike Newell axis of evil until they walked and so did he.
Anyway, we have new owners now, a fantastic manager in Marc Bircham (ex QPR and Millwall) and things are really looking up. Is Scott Twine still at Swindon? He's a great little player.

Scunthorpe 1 Swindon 3

Quote
Swindon set about trying to find a route back into the game. And 10 minutes after going behind they found it once Kesler-Hayden had been brought down inside the box.

The right-back took on three Iron defenders before being tripped by a combination of two. The referee waited a moment before pointing to the spot.

Swindon Lad - you may (or then again you may not!) be interested to know that one of the most memorable games of football I have ever attended was in 1968, a few days before Christmas, when Swindon beat Burnley 3-2 aet in the League Cup semi-final replay, which was played at the Hawthorns.  Good luck for the season.

Reading the match report another player with Villa links is also now on Swindon's books - Harry McKirdy (I assume it's the same one who was in our academy at the same time as Callum O'Hare).

Hope you keep us updated. My uncle was a steward at Swindon for a number of years. Got us tickets for both the away games in 1988 and the one in the 93/94 season. The 1988 game was actually my first Villa game, so have quite fond memories of the place.

To balance it out, my dad used to go to watch Oxford Utd a fair bit because his mate supported/supports them. Tells me every so often tales of Big Fat Ron (Atkinson) doing, ahem, "tactical fouls" on Don Rodgers (aka barging him in to the stand at the first opportunity).

Anyway, best of luck for this coming season. :)

Re: Scunthorpe v Swindon pre match chat and matchday thread

Wollacott 7
- Distribution was a bit poor at times and was a bit rash and shouldn't have given away the penalty. But made a few commanding claims and two very smart saves. Forgotten what its like to have a decent keeper.

KKH 9
- No wonder he has a 5 year contract. Defended soundly and was an immense attacking threat. Incredibly quick and gifted. Would have created more in first half if we could have found him with the ball!


Baudry 6.5
- Did what he needed to do. Still takes too many risks for my liking.

Swindon Town player ratings after win over Scunthorpe United

https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/swindon_town_2014/19498922.swindon-town-player-ratings-win-scunthorpe-united/

ADVER Sport assess the performances of the Swindon Town players following the club's 3-1 victory over Scunthorpe United.

Jojo Wollacott: 7

Pulled off a handful of excellent saves and claimed aerial balls really well throughout. At fault for the penalty, however.

Kaine Kesler-Hayden: 9

The Villa man was excellent on his debut, showing pace, awareness, and most importantly winning the penalty that got Town back into the game. Hopefully, his injury is not too serious, and he can continue like that all season. Subbed.

Well i will not bore you with the game details (we won 3-1) This lad is something special that much is certain. So composed for someone so young and makes the right decisions. What surprised me most was how good he was in the air and how strong he was.

As a Swindon fan we have been fortunate over the years to have seen some good players on loan, Players like Carrick Milner etc, and i have no doubt he is going to play at the very top level. I know it's one game but you know when you can just tell. Even his passing is fast and direct. He got the penalty taking on 2 players and caused them all sorts of issues. He went off with a slught knock but think that was a precaution really 

Thanks again for the warm welcome and the memories of some of those games, the 6-4 was to this day still my best ever away game, 4-1 down then Glen Hoddle put on a masterclass and we win 6-4. Birmingham fans it won't shock you to hear didn't react well after the game

My favourite Swindon game ended 0-0 in 1988  ;)

I distinctly remember hearing the news about the 6-4 on the coach on our way back from winning at Arsenal.
I think we had won 1-0 with a Tony Daley goal. To the tune of 'Day-O' we were singing "Swindon, Swindon, four one up and you lost six four, not one not two , not three, not four. Four one up and you lost six four"!

Hi all

Thought I would give you a quick update, i won't pop on every week as that will annoy people but a quick update to let you know how he is doing.

The lad is class, getting better on the ball every week, and positionally looks very very good. In terms of playing style, i would say he is like TAA at Liverpool. I know many will probably wonder what I mean as I just said he is great defensively ;-)

Few little things to iron out as getting booked for diving and silly yellows for pulling back players and just a bit of silliness but that's why he is here, to learn how to react under pressure and the good far outweighs the bad

Finally, he was called up to England under 20s and made an appearance yesterday for them so overall the loan is working out for all of us

When I think of Swindon I always think of David Platt throwing his shirt into the crowd as we all celebrated promotion on the pitch, only for a week later for him to discover through one of our youth players exactly who got the shirt. Platt demanded it back and when I say 'demanded' he meant it. Needless to say he got it back, the twat.

when I think of Swindon , I always think of S Frogatt and I dont know why ? 

When I think of Swindon I always think of David Platt throwing his shirt into the crowd as we all celebrated promotion on the pitch, only for a week later for him to discover through one of our youth players exactly who got the shirt. Platt demanded it back and when I say 'demanded' he meant it. Needless to say he got it back, the twat.

pray tell more please...?

I went to the Colchester game on Saturday and was really impressed with Swindon. A very enjoyable 0-0. Thought Chrichlow was immense and Simpson is quite a handful. Payne and Lyden kept things ticking nicely. Kaine had a great game too. Always seemed to have plenty of time on the ball and very athletic. Should have capped off a fine performance but slipped in the area in a similar way to Jacob Ramsey earlier in the day at Old Trafford. Hope he continues to be a good player for you and I think playoffs minimum should be a realistic target from what I saw on Saturday. GO SWINDON

Afternoon guys-Quick update

Another steady month for the young lad and he seems to be a real steady player. Did have a 1 or 2 blips but that coincided with the team having a few poor performances. One thing that really does stick out is that for a small lad he is superb in the air and his covering of the back post is brilliant, definetly defensively aware but i do think he would be perfect in a 3 5 2 if you play that.

He has been called up for England again and strangely in the 2 games he has missed our RWB has been absolutely quality so Saturday should be interesting regarding selection.

On a side note there are strong rumours down here that Barry is to be recalled by you in January and be loaned to us  so that'll be interesting how that developes.

He'll train with the seniors for pre-season and the coaching staff will be able to work out whether he's ready to fight for the right back spot or whether to send him out on loan again. No point loaning him out if he is ready. I think he'll be able to provide the width that the coaches want from fullback areas.

No point loaning him out if he is ready. I think he'll be able to provide the width that the coaches want from fullback areas.

If we think he isn't far off a regular place in the 18/20 (whatever it is) surely that means he could go to a Stoke, Boro or QPR and play regularly there if some of them don't come up?

I think it's worth looking at tomorrow's opposition and how they've handled loans in recent times.

Harvey Barnes went like this for instance:

2017- MK Franchise (league 1)

2017-18- Barnsley (bottom end of championship)

2018-19- West Brom (top end of championship)

Then they recalled him in Jan 2019 when he was 21 and they'd deemed him ready as he was standout for West Brom.

Also got Dewsbury Hall who is rumoured to be starting tomorrow.

Was at Blackpool in league 1 in 2020 and had a good season at Luton in championship. Now regular in Leicester squad and he's actually 23 now so two examples of Leicester using a couple of loans for their kids to make sure they keep scaling up the football league and then they get integrated into first team squad.

Just think it may be a little early for Kesler even if he has huge potential. At worst should get a top end league 1 loan like Jacob Ramsey did.

We've seen before just chucking 5-6 into squad at once isn't always the best policy if some aren't ready so I expect 2-3 of them to go out on loan in Jan.

Notts County were league 1 when he was there, saw Walsall beat them 5-1.

He was pretty much on the fringes for first 6 months of 14/15, odd sub cameo but rarely used by Lambert so loan to championship club until that January would've probably helped just as much.

When you think of the kids that came through to make a decent impact likes of Cahill, Gabby, Bannan and Weimann all had championship loans of some kind IIRC.

My one and only visit to the County Ground was in '97 when my ex-wife's QPR visited. Allan McDonald had not long left the R's for Swindon and ended up in goal for them, owing I think to an injury to the actual keeper.

She fell over in the mud on the way back to the car, which wasn't at all amusing

How long has Guilbert got left? One thing we definitely don't want to do is to sign another right back as competition to Cash who would only block the pathway. So we would either need to give Guilbert another year (which he might not be happy with), bring in someone on loan for a year while KH gets more games or include KH from next year.

One of the points paul_e has made before is that by sticking around and training with the first team, you're going to be training at a higher standard and with higher standard players on a day-to-day basis that you wouldn't get by going out on loan.

Went up the Bescot on Saturday to watch the match and sat with the Swindon fans.

Kesler played well, and their fans absolutely love him. He's definitely got a lot of promise but I think another loan at a Championship level club is probably the next logical step for him.

That other ex Villa lad McKirdy didn't look up to much though. And whilst waiting for someone at the end we spotted Jordan Lyden knocking about.

I didn't even realise he was at Swindon, i recall we had high hopes for him at one point.

They had a number 10 called Payne playing who caught my eye, very much in the Buendia mould in terms of height/build/style but a bit more robust. I thought he was early 20's from afar but turns out he's 27 so not much point looking at him

It's sounds as though Barry's return was by mutual agreement between Ipswich and him due to lack of chances.  Was Hayden's loan supposed to be a season long?  If so it would suggest that the coaching team feel he is ready for a step up in level.  I would like to see him go out again in the Championship but I think he may be around the squad for the rest of the season until we have settled the comings and goings.  If we are spending on a left back and we patently need a centre back then that may be the end of the funds for this window.

Yeah, I agree - Barry looks more like it just wasn't the right move for him or Ipswich. That said, it should give him a bit of a grounding that having been on Barcelona's books doesn't automatically guarantee a career as a footballer even further down the league. Think a loan out to a non League club would be in order there.

KKH seems a different kettle of fish. I think he might be on the fringes of the first team squad now, maybe worth giving him 6 months to see how he gets on, then either keep him about to pressure Matty Cash or a loan out to a Championship club next season depending on what he needs - regular football/more experience or just the opportunity to fight Cash for his place.

With Tuanzebe leaving we had lost our cover for fight back area in the event of Cash getting a knock or more likely a suspension - would have him on the bench for rest of season and look to give him minutes where possible.  Guess If we bring in another centre half who can cover right back later in Jan he might get another loan into a Championship side though

Yeah, that was my feeling. If he can get a few subs appearances in, maybe the odd start, from now until the end of the season then that could do him as much good as anything. Get a feel for the first team set up, know the players he'll be playing with and that . Then a full season loan to the Championship next season, ready to make Mateuz Cashski start looking over his shoulder the season after.

They really did seem to love him. Is his development not worth him staying there for the full season? I guess we need RB cover or maybe there's a championship loan on the offing. Neither though are guaranteed to aid his development but staying for the remainder of the season and playing week in week out would do. Fingers crossed as seems to be a good one.

I think there's an element of Gerrard wanting to get to know some of these kids and see which he thinks have a future with us and seeing how that affects his transfer plans for the next couple of windows. We may well then lend them out again nearer the end of the month. KKH may have some championship clubs interested in him and then we can't deprive him of experience at the next level up.

Clubs often bring loan players back in January then send them out again. With Tuanzebe gone, he may get on the bench. We may be in the market for a player and waiting on agreement before he's allowed out. Either way, he's doing really well and we're in a good position.

He obviously made the grade at Swindon. Doesn't automatically follow he then needs to go to Div1 or the championship before getting a run here. Could be worth checking out as cover for cash. Bit of a risk, but if you don't give them a chance, you never find out.

Great goal, great celebration. He was really impressive, defensively and in attack. Good positional sense. My wife remarked that he was clearly a cut above the rest of the team in little bits of skill and intelligence. Give him a season in the championship and he will be snapping at Cash’s heels.

Thanks great to hear the scout report. Seems a naturally comfortable attacking which is great. I see this MK Dons club are high up in league 1 and previously who was playing high up in league 2 (Swindon)great progress and both seem to be decent football which suits.
I wonder if he could be progressed into the first team squad next season though given his potential
Unless we sell Cash and sign a major upgrade Kesler could have the opportunity next season perhaps?
Not even 20 till next season though but I do hope these young players get given opportunity on first team squads and game time.

Involved assisting the second goal
Providing brilliant services for MK Dons push to promotion.

The way he seized on to the goal keeper pass error was great anticipation and determination to get there ahead of opponent and drive towards the goal making the second. Marvellous.

The lad Scott Twine of MKD looks a good prospect, he scored four goals against Plymouth yesterday, for his hat-trick goal the pass from KK-H was superb, he just gently lobbed it over the defender who was closing him down directly into Twine's path for him to bury it.  Class.

Yep possibly a season too soon for the back up to Cash role but a whole season in the Championship will be the progression he needs. He’s done well this season, half at Swindon in League 2 who look like they’ll get in the play offs and now half a season at MK a whole division higher who are also in the play offs. Seems logical for his progression to head to the Championship.

If MK are promoted, would it be better to send him back there (knows the manager, most of the players but could struggle) or send him to a club expected to finish higher up if we can find one, but where he might not get the same amount of game time.

Given how well he played for Swindon against Man City in the FA Cup, I'm not sure he needs to add too much more to his game to be considered as the backup to Matty Cash. He played very well against one of the best sides in the world that day. He's not ready to be first-choice, obviously, but short of a Cash injury meaning he was the default first choice for a prolonged period of time, I think he'd be fine as a back-up while integrating properly with our first-team squad.  Hopefully would play a few cup games and the odd league game for us.

Agreed.  I'm convinced KKH is ready to be back up and will be excellent when given the chance.  I guess the difficulty is keepng back up players happy when the could be further developing on loan.  It's harder to give substitute minutes to a fullback when typically you want your 3 subs to be tactical changes.

Didn't Klopp get his own way and it's 5 subs next season, so maybe opportunities to blood youngsters.

I see where you're coming from but I'd be loathe to make the assumption he's ready on the basis of one game against Citeh no matter how well he performed. I suppose we'll see what happens in pre season and how integrated with the first team he is or if the pathway is a loan into the championship? Whatever the club decide he looks an excellent prospect for challenging for Cash's place over the coming seasons.

Until last year my office was technically in Milton Keynes (but I rarely went there) so I know a lot of people who go to their games and generally they thought he was excellent for a few months but was looking a bit tired the last few weeks. On the Wycombe games in particular there seems to be a suggestion that Wycombe targeted him for a bit of a kicking.

As backwards as it seems I hope the latter is true, with his pace and frame he'll be someone who gets that so the sooner he starts working out how to deal with it the better.

personally I'd like us to keep him around the squad next season. If he doesn't seem quite ready he can go out again in January but with the league cup we hopefully have a chance to give him gametime whilst also getting him to train alongside players of a far higher standard. I'd also like to keep a bigger than normal squad for the first half of next season because I think the world cup will have a big impact regardless of the break in games. Having a few U21 players we can rely on as part of that is helpful because they are 'free' in terms of squad registration.

Yeah, been impressed whenever I've seen him. Would definitely have him ahead of Young as back up, assuming Guilbert gets sold or loaned again. Would maybe have him ahead of Guilbert anyway, even though I like him.

If we can get some decent cup draws, for once, and he impresses, I wouldn't even be amazed to see him pushing for a first team place in the league.

Thought we had one created by Swindon Lad when he was on loan there. I said then that I realise it was lower levels but he looked very similar to Trent Alexander-Arnold at Liverpool going forward. Although as the latter has shown recently, the Right Back does need to defend first and foremost and then anything else is a bonus.

I think so too. We want him in training with the first team and learning all he can, playing in the cup games, and getting used to the league. He's played well against both Man U and Man City this year, so we can see he's capable. It also helps us rest Cash and keep him fresh, as bombing up and down the pitch all match is hard work.

He's still only 19. It's not unusual for players to have several loans before they come into the thinking for the first team and yes, he's been on loan to 2 different clubs but it's 1 season of league football.

I was hoping he would be Cash's understudy this season and with him looking good during pre-season but a season at a championship club who did well last season and almost got promotion will do him a lot of good. In a year's time Young will retire or go elsewhere and KKH will step-up, pretty much seemlessly, you would think.
Title: Re: Kaine Kesler Hayden
Post by: Smithy on August 12, 2022, 11:43:33 AM
The Championship is a good step up again for him - six months in league 2 and excelled, six months in league 1 and did well.  Now let's see what he can do in the Championship. A good six months there and he'll be ready to push Cash as part of the first-team squad.

I can see the advantages of keeping him here as Cash's understudy, but Cash played more minutes than any other outfield player in the entire league last year.  If he's fit, he plays, and he doesn't appear to tire in games, so I can see why the club might think a 6-month Championship loan would do KKH good.

I'd like to see him play our cup games, but I suspect 20-odd championship games will be better for him than a handful of early-round cup games for us?
Title: Re: Kaine Kesler Hayden
Post by: London Villan on August 12, 2022, 11:44:17 AM
The benefit of keeping him is that he doesn't take up a squad place and can be cover at right-back, the balance is that he won't develop sat on the bench or playing a league cup match or two. Tricky one to decide.

Who would you rather have as back-up to Cash - taking into account how important an attacking right-back is to our current set-up - KKH or Young or Feddie (Konsa and Chambers are just not attacking full-backs)

Multiple loans is not a bad thing at all - especially if the loans are at progressively higher levels.  He's only had one full season of senior football (still pretty good for a 19-year-old).  Mason Mount had two seasons on loan before getting regular football at Chelsea, Tammy Abraham had three seasons, Harry Kane had FOUR loans across three seasons before becoming a Spurs regular.

I just picked those three because they are all TOP players, domestically and internationally, who've had multiple loans in their earlier years.

The time to worry is if the loans aren't a step up on their previous loans, a la Keinan Davis, which suggests his time is done here.

If he is ready, then he will show it in the Championship and he'll be in our side come January.  The Championship, after all, is where Cash's performances convinced us to pay £16m for him after just ONE season as a right-back.  If he stands out as an attacking right-back as well as Cash did, then he'll have no issues in the Championship at all!

Whilst it won't do him any harm, he's been out on loan twice already. I'd rather have him on our bench. I think he'd make a good attacking option as well as full back cover.

Agree.

Especially now there is the five subs rule. Kaine would be a great impact sub to have if we are chasing the game. He could even play in the right wing position and then move Bailey over to the left.
 
I am still a a little wary to the defensive side of his game, but a step up a division will surely give us a chance to see how he does.

Good luck Kaine.

Post by: eamonn on August 12, 2022, 03:03:52 PM
The Championship is a good step up again for him - six months in league 2 and excelled, six months in league 1 and did well.  Now let's see what he can do in the Championship. A good six months there and he'll be ready to push Cash as part of the first-team squad.

I can see the advantages of keeping him here as Cash's understudy, but Cash played more minutes than any other outfield player in the entire league last year.  If he's fit, he plays, and he doesn't appear to tire in games, so I can see why the club might think a 6-month Championship loan would do KKH good.

I'd like to see him play our cup games, but I suspect 20-odd championship games will be better for him than a handful of early-round cup games for us?

Agree with all that except that Cash being a permanent starter. What about when his form dips?

Maybe we can’t shift Freddie as easily as we thought and he’s going to be given another crack at the back up RB spot. Also Calum Chambers can play there also. But I’d have loved to see KKH given a shot at taking the RB spot from Matty Cash this season.

Guilbert got the bomb squad treatment with Chukwuemeka, so I don't think he will be in our plans even if we can't sell him. Personally I'm disappointed we are loaning him out again.

I'd be absolutely amazed if Guilbert makes the squad this season.  I guess we're going with Chambers / Konsa as back up.  A bit short sighted for me given the attacking dimension KKH can add.  If we're chasing a game it would seem a great wildcard to be able to chuck him on.

The flip side of that is that Cash stays fit and he gets very few chances to play in which case he’s better off getting regular football elsewhere.

I think it's pretty clear that he sees Young as covering for Cash for this season so this makes sense to ensure KKH doesn't stagnate with no game time. It's the same reasoning I've been using for why I wouldn't have a problem with Archer going out again for a few months.

The right decision in my view. More progression for the lad at Championship level after loans at L2 and L1 last season. He’d have maybe got League Cup and League Trophy games this season with possibly some cameos behind Cash, which isn’t enough in my view for his development.

I think its the right decision too. By next  year we'll have a young player with 60+ matches under his belt of first team football. He's not going to force Cash out the side and he won't learn enough sat on the bench.

Exactly, he will improve significantly more on loan than filling our bench. Long term this is the best option.  Even in he short term I don’t think we are exposed with young and Fred in reserve.

If we are going to use Guilbert as cover, fair enough. If the plan is still to shift Guilbert and have the Ghost of Ashley Young as our first choice right back AND winger on the bench, then it's fucking mental.

Either way, good luck KKH. I reckon he is going to be great. Hopefully this will aid his development and he can come in and fight for a first team place next season.

I would of liked KKH to stay as back up/challenge to Cash and if Cash gets injured or loses form, we’ll struggle there.
Saying that he’ll be playing for a team probably challenging at the top end of the championship, so a step up from his previous loans. Hopefully he’ll come back completely ready for the first team if and when needed.

Looks like our lad has made a good impression first time out.

From the Huddersfield Town forum:

“He was my MoM and I reckon there’s more to come. Lovely touch, doesn’t flinch a tackle, disciplined and a good array of passes.

Three or four times, he threatened that run in behind and that could be a real potent weapon once they all get on the same wavelength.

Great potential - great signing.”

Loan terminated at Huddersfield's instigation.
They've just signed Matt Lowton from Burnley and have another regular full back just back from injury, so KKH is effectively surplus to requirements.

Guess we'll find another club for him for the rest of the season.

I think we have to realise what an utter shitshow Huddersfield has been this season they’re currently in the Championship relegation zone having changed manager at least once and KKH by all accounts has been pissed about massively in terms of playing time and position. Whilst I’m not exonerating him entirely, he may have been a right pain in the arse, the evidence suggests otherwise.

Players develop at different rates.  He's played well the last few games apparently, but in a relegation battle they'd prefer to rely on the exp[erience of Lowton and use the loan spot to get another keeper.

I'm dissapointed as I've been excited about KKH, but a cancelled loan won't make or break him.  In fact it may be good in building his charachter and giving him a taste of adversity.  But I think what he does in the next 5 months is important and that should definitely be on loan and not on our bench if at all possible.

In the three games I've watched him play his pace and technique have stood out. He's very comfortable in posession and can beat his man from a standing start. The game for Swindon against Man City, he was superb and had the beating of the player he was up against.

I reckon when Emery sees him close up he'll like what he sees, and if he's not truly convinced by Cash (I'm sceptical of this though, I think it's more about him being away for 6 weeks) then we'll start to see a fair bit of this kid.

I felt for McGinn a bit, as I have too worked for bosses that were sound to me whilst being wankers to my colleagues. It's uncomfortable.

I've been on both sides and, if I'm honest, I preferred it when I was one they were being a wanker towards

That's very big of you to confess to being a wanker to your team.

Oops, it does read a little like that doesn't it, fortunately I only manage services and projects so I can treat those like shit and no one cares.

Finn Azaz did really well there last year, hopefully he goes back there this season.  I like the concept of loaning in pairs.  Makes ‘Jedinak’s job easier and hopefully builds bonds between the players.

Really pleased for him. Hopefully, this will be the catalyst for him to really kick on from here as for whatever reason, his last season flatlined. This is a kid who's highly rated at the club but needs games. And one of my best mates is Argyle. I saw their championship winning performance last game at Port Vale with him. They play attacking, pragmatic football with their full backs on the front foot. Perfect for KKH. Think they're surprise a few in that league, hopefully starting with the Boing Boingers and the Dogshite at their place

They've got an unbelievable following for a lower league club at the end of the country. They sell out their stadium and easily take a few thousand to away games all over the place. Plymouth is a big city in terms of population and I think they're trying to punch their weight in a pragmatic way. They're run on a data centric, Brighton/Brentford model and it's good they've pinpointed Kaine as the ideal man for the RWB.

Long may it continue, after a stalled loan last year he really needs this one to be big for him. For what it's worth I think if he can make a success of this one he could develop to be a similar threat to Moreno on the other side because he has bags of pace and skill, just needs to be contributing to creating chances regularly and holding his own defensively.

It would be nice to have that balance.

Have an attacking LB & RB along with a defensive LB & RB, would give us the ability to attack down either flank or defend either flank, depending on who we are playing.

Cos sometimes, just attacking down the left could be countered by the oppositions RB.

And switching the flanks & attacking their weaker LB could make the difference between winning & losing.

I’d like him to stick around so the coaches can assess and work with him and decide if there is a player there they can work with.  If we aren’t gonna buy a right back would prefer trying him to stop having to stick Konsa out there when we really want Konsa / Torres back as CBs.  Maybe Chambers is off to so want extra defender for the squad?

Alternatively he might just be off somewhere to get starts or a fee in

Agreed.

A CB pairing needs to be consistent & moving Konsa out of it to cover Cash hasnt helped with that.

Although, Torres has had a few injuries, but still, Konsa is better at CB.

I think to a certain extend that's true of all fans, of all clubs. Not just Plymouth.  We all believe our own club deserves the very best, and anyone not bending over to provide it is 'scum'.

I think our relationship with Plymouth will be pretty good given the experience they've helped our youngsters get, and how it's helped them on the field.  I'm sure they were given the opportunity to match the Azaz fee.  Though I guess that might change when we find out where KKH is headed.  Given we've just bought a young right-back, I'm assuming he's headed straight back out of the door.

I would have thought there is a break clause in the parent clubs favour to recall at discretion of whoever is our loans manager nowadays, used to be Jedinak before he went to Spurs didn’t it?

There has to be an agreement between both clubs for a year long loan deal to be cut short, so I imagine it's as simple as Villa putting a January recall clause in. So we simply say to whatever skint prick carrot wrangler club that wants one of our kids: "Here's a 12 month loan agreement that says we can recall him in January if we want to.

Yup. I think it usually (but not always) comes down to who is paying for what. So in a case like this where Azaz and KHH being at Plymouth is benefitting us in giving them experience and increasing their value they are probably doing little more than paying their wages. But because there aren't loan fees to us involved, we keep the option of having them back if we want.

On the other hand, with someone like Barkley in the past where we supposedly paid Chelsea £10m to have him for the season, they don't have the option to take him back. Not that they would have wanted to.

Wouldn't have been too funny for us if Chelsea had recalled him and sold him to Wolves. It's not often players have much of a say though that was Abramovich Chelsea where budgets etc weren't real. Wolves were in a higher division so could be justified a lot easier. Maybe other lower league clubs wont take kindly to the stunt we pulled with Azaz and we will struggle to loan out players to clubs that will treat them well. Penny rich (£2m), pound poor vibes off it and it's being driven by the FFP incentives to sell academy players for profit.

Stunt? Haha…it’s not a stunt, it would have been in the agreement that he could be recalled in Jan at the behest of his parent club.  They had 18 months and a promotion out of Azaz so we haven’t exactly done bad by them.

We didn't pull any stunt at all. He was on loan to Plymouth last season as well and they did well well out of him. We didn't have any obligation to leave him there, presumably they knew he could be recalled at any time. They were happy enough to have him back this season again under those conditions.

Afaik, both clubs have to agree if you want to end a loan early. However I assume that can be overridden if the parent club wishes to sell said player, which makes me believe we've buyers for both.

To recall them early and then sell them to another club in the same division is bad form really. Reeks of PL bully boy tactics. Another rotten consequence of FFP that definitely isn't in the interests of the game and/or player development.

For the player the chance of a permanent move has got to be better than the uncertainty of a loan surely.

Indeed. I don't see why moving to a bigger club than the one he was playing for, being paid more money, on a five year contract is worse for Azaz's development than him being loaned out to clubs by us.

Im 100% sure that the contract with the recall option would have been agreed by all parties when the loan was set up, so it's not like they didn't have an inkling that a recall could possibly happen.

And lets be honest, if either had been shit or got injured, they would have sent them back in a heartbeat...

People do realise the Tammy Wolves move was only a loan move, and there was no guarantee it would have been legal due to the three clubs thing in one season. (No one was sure whether the Charity Shield counted).

It was a loan offer.
https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jan/08/tammy-abraham-snubs-wolves-loan-move-stay-aston-villa-transfer-window-football

I recall a Grealish interview where he said he was doing his best to persuade Tammy to stay, promising him he was nearly back from his injury and they'd get promoted.
Title: Re: Kaine Kesler Hayden
Post by: dcdavecollett on January 19, 2024, 12:56:07 AM
Okay. Perhaps Chelsea wanted an obligation to buy after the loan, or wanted more loan money from Wolves than we could pay.

The Grealish story is quite a funny one. "I'll be back soon, Tammy! Well, in about six weeks..."

All turned out fine in the end.

I think it’s more a case of them worrying we were taking him off somewhere else because we weren’t happy with his development there. In that case it’s understandable that we would assure them that wasn’t the case and we were having him back because of how well he’s developed and we need him.

And me. He looked like a real prospect and I’ve followed his career via social media and it’s seems very hit and miss. Maybe he’s just never found that home. Grealish found Notts County and it clicked, same with Ramsey and Archer at Middlesbrough.


Or, he’s just not quite got it. I hope not though.

They are and I hope you’re right that he does get a chance but I won’t be holding my breath that he will.
Cash may have his faults but he’s given a lot more for the team and is infinitely more experienced than  KKH and he’s been pushed out more often than not to be replaced by our best centre back playing out of position so for a rookie to come in would be a surprise for me.

Given we've just made a big deal of signing an 18-year-old right-back, you'd have to imagine KKHs time with us is probably up.  Maybe they're planning to cash out on him this January like they did with Azaz (though I'd be surprised if his fee was a much more than Finn's).

I can't imagine Unai wants the new kid, Cash and KKH in the same squad.  Or maybe Cash is the one to be leaving for FFP purposes?

Cash has about 18 months left of his original 5 year contract, so he will only have another £3.2m or so on his book value by this summer. I don't think he will be on the biggest wages either.

I think the KKH situation is going to be resolved by the summer, one way or another. He's got 4 months or so to be assessed by us and put himself in the shop window too. Emery can then decide if he goes with Ned and Cash or Ned and KKH.

I think he would be massively exceeding all expectations if he came in and showed enough to be first choice from the start.

I imagine he'll be a squad filler to start with, getting cameos where suitable but generally, getting the time to understand Emery's system and how he wants him to play away from the limelight and with no pressure on him while he acclimatises.

Speaking of Harry Kane, I wouldn’t look too closely at how a player gets on at a loan club. Kane played 15 times on loan for Leicester and scored twice. One of those was on his debut. So 1 goal in the next 14. Who would have predicted what would come next?

He seems to be part of the first team squad after being recalled, and I think he should be afforded some minutes at the right time. Emery will only improve him as a player.
I suspect he's going to be a cover for right back, but when Liverpool are giving their new young right back opportunities, I think Kesler could be given some action.

His chances will be much higher if Digne starts, he's too attacking to be picked in the same team as Moreno, from what I've seen. The fact tha Ned is the same makes me wonder if there's much of a future for KKH with us, which will be a shame because there's plenty of potential there, he's just nver really put it together at senior level.
