This!
100% agree with this. as a player myself, if I'm getting criticised and benched when playing well(or even just decent) while another older player is playing terribly but can do no wrong, then I'm out. I'd say my piece to the coach and if nothing changes I'll leave.
You can blame the coach for that one and, to an extent, the club for letting it happen. Not that I've ever read anything negative he's said about the club, but wouldn't blame Locatelli if he he did.
We loan Locatelli out when we got Bakayoko. We were trying to get back into UCL so was it a bad decision at that time? I don't know but I only know its easy to give young players a chance when you are at the top or when you are forced to.
