I think it needs to be more than “if they are good enough they’ll break through” KT was on the verge of leaving before he got his chance under Deila. He’s using a lot of examples that he didn’t give debuts to.

That’s simply not true about Neil Lennon and Callum, not sure where you heard that but that’s not the case, by all accounts there was a big offer same window KT left
There was good fortune for KT but he took his chance, he never looked out of place. Look at where those players who left at 17/18 are now? Hard to think of a player who has left and shone.
They'll only ever show if they're good enough if they're given starts. One youth player in the starting 11 is not gonna ruin our performance, only way they will get up to speed is throwing them in the deep end. If we done that with Doak we might have kept him.

Supposedly Lennon was in favour but was persuaded otherwise.
