Zidane has allowed the youngsters to see a lot of game-time.

Real Madrid have diverted towards using home grown players only as back-ups rather than as regular starters. In the recent past the likes of Jese, Callejon and Dani Parejo have all moved onto different clubs citing lack of playing-time as the reason.

The situation seems to have changed since Zidane's taken over.

Lucas Vazquez, Marco Asensio, Nacho Fernández and Dani Carvajal are all regulars on the team sheet under Zidane and they've repaid the faith of the manger by taking their performances up a coupe of notches.

This stat is telling - as far as Zidane trusting the youngsters in the team is concerned. So is the one related to assists by Carvajal; going up to 21 from 8 under Ancelotti.

Madrid's new darling, Marco Asensio, has had a breakthrough first couple of seasons under the manager while he was sent out on loan under Benitez. The Spaniard has already scored 20 and assisted another 9 in just 77 matches for his side.
