Happy that you do.
It's not such a drastic change:
1) We still have the same limits on the number of players being trained.
2) The experience factor that's already implemented will be the cost of not playing in games.
3) This will help in making the national cups interesting.
4) It's very realistic to receive individual training and lack game experience at a young age.

I like the idea, but I think it would increase the number of skilled players on the market.
For example: I've trained my starting 5 defenders up to a level that would do just fine in A-league, despite my team being in B-league. What I would want to do, under this system, is stop training that starting 5 and train two new batches of defenders.
Since wages aren't really a problem, under the current system I will likely keep these players until they retire. Unless I change my training program, I would essentially be training only 5 players until the second class replaces the first, at which time I would buy a third group of trainees and the process would repeat itself.
In reality it doesn't quite work that way, but I still think that being able to have two sets of young trainees at all times will flood the market. Nobody in the higher leagues will have to worry about playing young players because they can play their 27 year-olds and still have 10 effective training slots. 5 of those will replace the current starters, 5 will be sold, and the next batch will be brought in.
Now that I think about it, I'm not sure I can follow my own reasoning here. Time for bed.

lol,
27yo is the prime age for a soccer player in reality. The concept of retiring players won't be such a bad thing. I've sold 24yos and 25yos before because they occupy a training spot. If I had the choice I would keep them longer or retire them.
Flooding the market will not occur because you still train the same number of players. In fact it will reduce the number of high quality players on the market (the ones we retire).

I don't like the idea as it would make it too easy. Making the decision to keep training a 24yo or sell him and train a youngster can be a difficult one. Removing that decision, and allowing everyone to just train their 10 perfect training candidates would make things too simple.
Lakay, you had the choice to keep them longer, you just chose not too. Removing the importance of that choice from the game would not be a good thing.

I agree with barndog. I'm having to come to terms with difficult decisions myself, as I position myself for A league competiton. In the coming two seasons, all of my original trainees from when I started the game come of selling age.
Self, on my team, I likely will carry to age 25, bad talent he may have then but he's so critical to my team...
Meanwhile Ona, who still has steady talent at 22, I will likely hold to 24, because he has talent still, and he's a backbone def mid.
Finally you guys saw I'm selling Stephenson, who's 23 but as a winger has the least importance of the three to my offensive scheme.
I have a mid/striker hybrid Art Roberts, who's 21 but I've already decided to keep this guy through his career - as a #3 striker. His skill set is such that he won't make an awesome selling mid, but he's already a darn good backup by A standards.
So I have to decide, like everyone else does with their own players....who to sell and when.
Like Barndog, I think this is a good thing for everyone to deal with.
