I'm not sure Todd Boehly wants to maximize young players, because if Todd Boehly wants young players to be stronger and for the long term then Todd Boehly does not fire coaches so often. Because after all, maximizing young players for the long term certainly requires a long process, but in fact Todd Boehly is quite visible that he is unable to appreciate a process because he is too quick to fire the coach. After all, the young players in the current Chelsea squad are many choices made by Pochettino and thus, Pochettino should still be at Chelsea to improve the quality of the young players of his choice and not fire him.
At first glance, Chelsea management policies seem to be at odds with their long term plans. On the one hand they want to build depth in the squad with a foundation of young players, but they don't retain managers who help these players develop gradually, this is clearly incomprehensible. I think Chelsea management and officials only think about trophies, and don't really care about the process, that has been their style for a long time. Todd Boehly will likely not be as successful as Abramovich, and the two have similar habits when it comes to firing coaches.

Pochettino legacy squad will largely be Enzo Maresca mainstay next season, and to manage them Enzo Maresca certainly needs time to adapt. We know that Enzo Maresca is contracted for the next five seasons, but if he fails to get Chelsea to finish in the Champions League zone, Todd Boehly will kick him out sooner. We'll see whether Todd Boehly plan will work as expected, what is clear is that the competition for trophies next season will be even more difficult. Hopefully the change of manager will get Chelsea back on the right track, so Enzo Maresca should be given time to prove it.
