5 subs from next season

So you will be allowed to change 50% of your outfield players in a game that lasts 90 minutes with a 15 minute break at half time? An absolute joke. Why not just go the whole hog and make the game like ice hockey where the substitutions are made 'on the fly'?

You do know we did it last season, and in all the cup competitions this season don't you ? Not just you to be fair, everyone making a big deal of it.

thats because people thought it was a one off covid thing, so they let it go. Now it will be another change that many see no benefit with. How many players did we win the league using in 68? That was with more games, heavier pitches, virtually no idea of proper warm ups and nobody did warm downs. Crap dietary regime and physio was a wet sponge. Not to mention proper tackles. And the people who want it, say its for the players. Really. I dont say any pampered players turning up at the ground, fag in mouth, after getting off the 53, when they'd just done overtime in their proper job.

And the players died poor and crippled for the remainder of their lives.

Good times.

Has having 3 subs made the games worse than in 68, no it hasn't, in fact I thing the game is better now than it was in the 60s, 70s and 80s. Have the FA cup and C/L games been worse this season because we have had 5 subs instead of 3, not in my opinion ,no. Just people gettingannoyed by a change we have already had that has made no difference to games.

I'm not saying bring those things back. I;m saying that as the modern player does not have to deal with all those things, why do they need to be further cossetted by only playing 60-70 minutes because they cant cope. And modern players can easily afford every conceivable lifestyle option to reduce the wear and tear a lifetime inflicts on all our bodies.
 
i think the premier league missed a chance here and could have demanded using youth players like 2 youth players that has played for the EDS or youth teams in the past 2 seasons. it would stop the bigger club stocking up on quality players. and give the so called smaller clubs a equal chance
