From an ideological perspective 100%. Academy players have had significant playing time. Some of them will hopefully be part of this team long term, maybe some of them will be sold for more money than they were worth a year ago.
As a whole we only finished 3 points behind last seasons total but the extra 14 goals conceded are a worry and not something that the coaching staff has been held accountable for. It’s not just Kepa that’s the problem here. Granted he’s had a bad season but our defensive personnel was largely the same as under Sarri.
More than happy overall, with Ziyech and Werner we’ve done some good deals early on which is promising. Ideally sort LB out next or just settle on 3 at the back and go with WB like we did under Conte.
