This leaves little room for cheating the Cup draw. If ever a user intends to manipulate the draw, he will have to sacrifice the results of many matches in the previous season. The only problem in there would be in the case of tankers who may put a weak starting line-up for all the matches, though this is unlikely the case as they will miss on the additional attributes' points that there intended first team players for the next season can gain.
I like this. I saw similar/identical suggestion in the past. But it will unlikely adopt because it require enormous programming effort like recording average quality of team for long period and cannot possibly generate extra revenue. So I only expect minor change like the one which will soon be implemented.
