Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

[Lastfootstamper]

So why let him go? Is he a moody teen who acts like a dick in the canteen?

It was posted earlier in the thread that he's turned down a new deal as he enters his final year. Perhaps we're becoming quite the pull now.

I think they see Kesler as a right winger, although I know he’s supposedly a right back. In a lot of the games I saw him play, he started as a winger.

[algy]

Guess there's also the question of whether it's better for Kesler is ready to properly challenge Matty Cash for that starting berth yet. He might be better off going out on loan this time round, getting a bit more experience.

Watches GB News, doesn’t support taking the knee, etc?

Yeah I've heard that too, which would make the Livramento link more plausible than if we saw Kesler developing into a right back.

Watching Kesler I think he could potentially play in a more box to box midfield role too, he has the energy and ability to play a lot of positions from the few games I saw him in. Real talent.

Same reason why they let Lamptey go, won't get in ahead of Reece James and Azpilicueta still played a good amount last season.

As could be said with Arsenal with Martinez.

He's clearly decided there is no path to the first team at Chelsea and has turned down a contract offer. Whether he is good enough to force a way in at Villa we will have to see.

Our investment in youth and younger players is on a different scale to anything I can ever recall us doing though. It's clearly a long term strategy to build a team that can maintain sustainable success. In my opinion we are 2-3 players in the squad from sustaining a top 6 push, but it would be great if 2-3 of the youngsters can then come through and be Premier league players for us.

[London Villan]

Or if 2 or 3 have to be moved on for decent money then it funds bigger purchases.

[ozzjim]

Agreed. Not sure we need to stockpile 60 odd out on loan the way Chelsea do though.

he might think that breaking into the first team at Chelsea is somewhat unlikely.
The club basis its youth development program on recruiting loaning and selling

[Hookeysmith]

This investment for the future is brilliant and very welcome, especially as Dean never has an issue in playing them but I would like a couple that instantly strengthens the first 11 other than Buendia (I see young as a very experienced back up utility squad player)

[Steve67]

I still think we need an out and out defensive midfielder.
