There was a small study done on this but i can't find the report now,. The conclusion twas that actually it probably slightly favours the lesser teams as they can get more fresh legs on to ease the burden of chasing shadows for 90 minutes, whereas the big clubs are probably replacing like for like in terms of quality which doesn't necessarily give them any advantage (although it does of course give them a fresh quality player on the pitch)I'm not sure what to think about extra subs. I'm thinking it gives an advantage to the big clubs with star studded squads.
Grant Hall still wouldn't get game timeSwap 11 - 11 at half-time like a friendly
Their subs running down the side of the pitch at the Riverside frightened me.That may well be the case but I’m sure someone posted on here not too long ago that Chelsea brought on something like two hundred and fifty million quids worth of players when there’s only three subs allowed.
Hopefully if McGree is back it increases the options a little. At the moment he changes the strikers and that's just about his only option other than maybe rotating Bola and Taylor.Klopp will be happy. I don't care what any of them say it definitely helps the bigger and better squads. These clubs have subs that would walk into the majority of other prem sides.
I can can see Dyches issue. You look at his bench and ability to use 5 and look at Peps or Klopps. They have genuine game changers.
The chances are they won't use 5. Most don't use 3 unless it's one or two for a bit of time wasting.
Warnock hardly ever used the full allocation during lock down.
I'm not fussed either way. I doubt we have 5 that Wilder would trust to bring on. He seems to make the same 1 or 2 every time. Then one for time wasting (Sol)
Sadly it won’t. I agree it can only help the likes of those clubs fortunate enough to,have a string of internationals on the bench. I can see them also wanting to expand their squads too no doubt paying obscenely large amounts of money for more international,standard players. The gap grows wider still.Absolutely farcical changes the whole dynamics of football. Hopefully it will fail
