Hello everyone,
I bring a proposal that seems very interesting to me, although I don't know if it has been discussed before. If so, I apologize, although I haven't found anything in the forum.

I suggest creating national teams of veteran players.
For example, they could be players from 37 or 38 years old.
In this way, managers would have the challenge of avoiding level drops and the useful life of many players would be extended.
Another advantage is that good veteran players would not sell for a few thousand to play one or two games, because being in a national team they could not be fired.
Furthermore, by creating another category of national teams, more managers could aspire to be NT coaches.
Of course, this type of NT would remain at a level of importance below the U21.
What do you think?

i actually like this idea, but instead of going off age, why not go off salary?

Reason for the suggestion in change is that if you use Salary as a baseline, the coaches of these Veteran NT/U21's would have to make decisions based on player profiles. Where as age, if a team has a trainer with the career extension function, then they'll remain at a higher lvl for longer. So if you use Age as a deciding factor, then teams who have career extension managers would have an advantage. if it's salary it's an equalizer for everyone.

Futhermore, if you use salary, then even the smaller nations would be likely to field more competitive teams too!

I appreciate your opinion, but my idea is that just as there is a NT for young players, there should be another for older players.
