Its pretty obvious that 5/6 subs in a game is a huge advantage for big finance teams
Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd all winning games late on against lower less resourced clubs after use of subs.

It's shocking, really. I know many teams in the bottom half of the Premier League voted against it. I wonder if Leicester and Sheffield United did? I read a stat that said Leicester had scored more goals from substitutions than any team this season. I think the rule helped Chelsea more than them today...

Premier league was formed for the big clubs. Just greed by the few unfortunately. I’m surprised they’ve still got relegation.

The Premier League clubs voted 16 to 4 in favour of the new subs rule. That surprises me. I know Villa and Norwich were two who voted against. If I was pushed to guess, I probably would've thought something like 13 vs 7, with the 7 being made up of teams threatened with relegation and teams punching above their weight in the top half. So from what I read before the rule was confirmed, I'd guess the 4 were all relegation contenders. |

Because this new rule affects all clubs a unanimous decision should have been required. But, as with all things Premier League, decisions only require endorsement from the mighty and righteous.

I didn't pay much attention during lockdown. Is this a temporary idea because we're playing over the summer to cover exhaustion, or will this continue forever once football returns to normal?

Its pretty obvious that 5/6 subs in a game is a huge advantage for big finance teams Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd all winning games late on against lower less resourced clubs after use of subs. Doesn’t appear to be helping us with one of the most expensive and largest squads in the Championship. |

I don't get the drinks break, its like a time out at basketball. Maybe last week in 33 degrees plus is understandable but every 22.5 minutes?

I think it's only temporary to compensate for the long break and short time clubs had to train before the restart and two matches per week. It is supposed to help avoid non impact injuries because players will not be as well tuned as normal. To be fair the break has been a lot longer than a normal close season and they only had 1/2 weeks back in full training before the matches. It applies in the Championship too where we should logically be at a huge advantage compared to clubs like Luton and Barnsley but seems not.

When you have to take a shit player off to bring on an even crappier one it doesn’t matter how many subs you can make. There have been some games over the last 3 seasons when all 11 players and the manager have needed subbing. |

Excellent news. This means that our £60,000,000 squad, the most expensive in Championship history, is going to trounce all before us.
Oh.

The power of the big clubs in the EPL and what they get away with is outrageous Feb 2020 , Uefa ban man city for two years from European football and fine them 30 million euros for ' serious breaches ' of the FFP rules . The EPL action , nothing ! Wow ! That's telling them ! |
