Cole Palmer and Malo Gusto great examples of smart recruitment – Talk Chelsea

Malo Gusto is only 20-years-old and is already becoming one of the most important players in this Chelsea team. He has it all and above all, his attitude and mentality is incredible and is THE key.

The signing of Gusto for me simply MUST prove to be the blueprint for future Chelsea recruitment. I don’t mean his age as such, and you will all know that I truly believe we need to add in more proven and quality experience to balance out this squad and detest the silly U25 rule, but the price point and type of scouting we did to get Gusto in, was VERY smart.

THOSE are the type of personalities we need to be targeting in this squad, and players like Axel Disasi are also good examples of strong mentalities.

Like I’ve said, there are question marks over some of the signings we have made, but players like Gusto, and also Cole Palmer, even though he was a little more expensive but still a fair price, are blueprints for smart recruitment, and we need to do more of this now.
