Bentaleb and Townsend are just as proven in the PL as Shaw and Chambers. You are also forgetting that all the Southampton players have played for managers (and/or situations where they had to) who are willing to give youth a chance, where as we have only had managers willing to give youth a chance since last December.None of those 4 have become huge successes though yet
Bentaleb is not getting a look in under Poch, Mason is showing early promise but it is just that atm, Kane is a bit part player with potential and Townsend is too dumb to be a top class footballer
Whereas Chambers and Shaw and Ox and Walcott and Bale are proven premiership performers
