[Football] Five substuttes in the Premier League from 2022/23

[Bozza]

Premier League clubs will be able to make five substitutions each game from next season after shareholders agreed to change the rules.

From 2022-23, clubs will be permitted to use five substitutes, to be made on a maximum of three occasions during a match, with an additional opportunity at half-time.

A total of nine substitutes can be named on the teamsheet.

Got to reward those clubs with huge squads and the riches to afford them.

So a manager can really f*** up his team selection and change half of it.

And those with managers who like to change formations six or seven times per game.

That is, in effect, probably at least 15 of the 20 clubs in the league. I'm against 5 subs, but it does us as a club no harm given the strength in depth we have in our squad.

Means even more timewasting.

Introduce 5 subs by all means, but introduce a clock (a la Rugby/Basketball) at the same time.

At the moment we get approx. 50 minutes of actual 'ball in play' time

Suits an excellent reactive manager like GPott down to the ground.

Less so a manager who has actually prepared his team to play from kick off.

I personally think its what saved us during Project Restart. Potter really seemed to get the changes right, and being able to use 5 subs gave him more options.

There won't be any more time wasting because the same rule of 3 windows (plus half time) to make the subs still remains doesn't it?

That'll teach me to open threads and wait before replying - I just wrote almost exactly the same thing as JJJS...

Brighton has 17 outfield players with 90+ minutes PL football... not sure I'd call that "strength in depth".

 

[Easy 10]

Aside from injuries, if you feel the need to change half the team during the course of the game, then you've already royally cocked up.

You can see why it appeals to Potter

 

[BBassic]

Not a bad thing really.

Means when we inevitably have to sub off Adam "Hamstrings made of that really shit wafer thin ham you can get in supermarkets" Lallana we'll have four subs left instead of two.

I would. It's a very expensively assembled squad of players with plenty of experience at this level. I'd be surprised if that stat was correct though, is it really only 17 players? How does that compare with other clubs?

It’s going to just become like rugby where the team with the most strength in depth almost always ends up winning comfortably in the final quarter.

According to this its 21 players (2 keepers and 19 outfield) with at least 90 mins of PL football. Obviously 2 of those are no longer at the club though.

Similar numbers to the top clubs having had a quick check (of City and Liverpool, i couldn't be bothered to go any further)

Expensive compared to what? The registered squad is the 5th cheapest in the league just behind the newcomers and Burnley.

Not sure how the other stat compares to other clubs but I'm guessing most clubs are closer to 20.

Yes... so 17 outfield players, just like I said . Thought most clubs would be closer to 20 but might not be the case, cant be bothered either.

It should have been 5 subs but only 3 sub moments to reduce the time wasting nonsense. I can see many a game v Burnley being littered with 5 separate subs in the last 15 minutes. Bonkers.
