Allegri doesn't think that Yildiz and Chiesa can function together. That's the reason why Yildiz played when Chiesa was unavailable, and why he's being benched when Chiesa's ready to play.
It has nothing to do with Allegri deliberately destroying young players, or giving chances to youngsters in order to develop them.

I understand the need to have 'balance', playing with 5 defenders(including wingbacks) against teams that are on a much higher talent level.
But the fact that he's not 'convinced' of fielding three attackers upfront against some of the worst teams in the league is beyond appalling.
We saw glimpses in the Napoli game where both Chiesa and Yildiz could co-exist. In fact it was our most productive 20 mins in the entire game.
Besides, Chiesa's best games for JJ right from Pirlo's season is when he played as a right winger.
It's all about making efficient use of your resources, fielding your most talented players in a setup which brings the best out of them.
He's not intentionally doing it but his ideas are hurting the team big time.
I've had enough of 'I'll let attackers do their thing while I'll just focus on organizing the defense'
This team badly needs coaching.
