I think we should look at some kind of automatic development. Like when a young player gets some minutes in competitive games he automatically improves in certain areas. Learning by doing.
Right now a player that plays a few seasons becomes worse (stamina drop) and does not learn anything. You can't tell me that any job in the world would not lead to some improvement in that field after year long practise.
On top of that training would even speed up things. Faster training is definitely something that has to find its way into the game. Until a few seasons ago the free agents covered that up.
