I think the approach to youth is more than just the development of U21 players. Rather it should also be the furer development of players below 25. In the modern game, being physical is a big part but being skillful is as important.
I think the problem in Italy is not youth does not get chance, but rather they are just not good enough. When you look at DP, Pippo, Nesta, Canna, Maldni, Totti, Cassano, De Rossi, Pirlo, and even Chellini, they got their chances despite their young age. Then you look at the youth now, the talents ain't there. As Dev said, Monty, and Aqua are probably the most creative Mids under 30, and that's a troubling sign. I really don't know how Italy can change that bc I think it has more to do with lacking talents instead of development.
