Weston “Immovable” McKennie (55 Viewers)

True, but he won't be tactically sound. He's too dumb for that. If he plays at all, it will be for non-sporting reasons. Agnelli clearly stated why do we keep the guy ("McKennie is an example with his attention regarding issues that are very much debated right now").
Allegri won't like that, but he'll have to play McKennie from time to time. Unfortunately for Bentancur and Rabiot, they don't enjoy the privilege to be a black American with "attention regarding issues that are very much debated".

If being key here, it relates to all of our players, not just Texas. We cannot know how tactically sound most of our players are simply because their last coach didn't even know how tactically sound he was, being a rookie and all.
Experienced coach and serial winner with lots of seasons behind his back would certainly know how to work with players like Wes and how to challenge him and make him improve his game, with Max those who disappointed or didn't perform at their top level last season can easily surprise and prove to be useful in the next campaign... Weston is a good candidate for that scenario...

He needs some polishing but Max will use him. His runs, finishing and heading capabilities are very good. Tactically and passing need to improve, with the tactical part being one of Max’ best coaching abilities. I’d be surprised if Allegri won’t use him a lot, finally a midfielder with decent box to box characteristics in his squad.
Lets not forget that McKennie was utilized as a RM and occasionally as a LM by Pirlo. Not strange that he looked so lost on the pitch, same could he said for other guys like Kulu and Bentancur.

The way I see it is that he managed to shine under pirlo in a midfield that had no idea what to do or how to play. Any form of organisation, instructions, and with hopefully the likes of locatelli and possibly one other newbie he could play a key role..whether it is starting or from the bench.
He has a lot of room for improvement, but now has a manager who he can develop under.
Shames me to say the above considering our last manager was one of if not the best Italian midfielder of all time.
