If our academy can remain successful then I think this could benefit us as

several of our rivals benefit considerably from loans from prem cllubs and may not be able to do so in the future. If we can continue to produce first team players from our academy then we should be in a good position.

I wonder if the clubs will find a way around it by "selling" players to lower league clubs on 1 year contracts and then in advance giving them a new contract that kicks in once that 1 year expires!
