Hmmm....
I have mixed feelings about this.
While it seems like a good idea on paper, I would prefer that managers can name the subs they want. If I were a young player rising through the ranks and named on the subs bench while this rule was enforced, I would have serious doubts about whether I merited the inclusion because of my performance or merely to make up a quota.
Also, this rule doesn't give the young players a true picture or feedback about where they stand in the pecking order or how close they are to breaking into the first team.
