Away Day Gadgie Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 There's no reason why they couldn't have played in the 8pm slot other than it was a box office slot. Of course a few more hours rest would have benefited the players even if it was the same day Aye, as someone who works shifts i can appreciate how much difference a few hours sleep/rest can make. It must be massive for a footballer when you consider the amount of miles they clock up during matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 There’s no ‘harm’ it’s just a bit ridiculous. They were top for just over 24 hours after 8 games having played a game extra. By the time a single T-shirt was probably even printed they were no longer top Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happinesstan Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 5 subs is much worse. It literally gives the bigger teams more advantage, even though they have spent more money and signed more players so could rotate more. Klopp was the person who decided to play the same forwards 3 games in a week. No one else Then as a team like newcastle you have the opportunity to have 5 subs but the quality isn’t the same on the bench it literally leaves you at more of a disadvantage Aye the 5 subs is a definitive advantage. Changing times is more about removing the disadvantage that come with success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I don't particularly want them to go to 5 subs but the point that Klopp only made 2 subs this weekend seems a bit of a daft one for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Maybe they should just change the rules so if you make 3 and someone gets knackered then you can make another sub. But they have to have bone penetrating the skin or some such as they would find a way to get around it and make their players feign injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says it doesn’t benefit the bigger teams and I believe Klopp to be honest enough to truly believe that, but it clearly will I mean just look at Sane not being able to get a game at city last year.
