That is precisely your argument.

"But would any of those been given a chance without a pathway and Farke figure at the club ?" is what you asked.

The pathway long predate Webber & Farke.

Do you think the likes of Bellamy, Eadie, Akinbiyi, Cureton, Daryl Russell & Rob Green moved hundreds of miles from home as young teens because they thought progression was unlikely?

Craig Bellamy said this, explicitly, in the recent podcast.
He turned down Leeds, Chelsea & Liverpool because - IN HIS WORDS - Norwich convinced him of a pathway.
