Should have just told the ‘big clubs’ fuck off to their super league and ousted them from the PL. We’ll be fine with the five subs rule going forwards but it’s absolutely shit for teams lower down the league

Has the 'historical qualification' for the Champions League gained any legs? If they sneak that in I can't see there being the kick off that there was over the ESL, but there absolutely should be.

One thing that was forgotten in the whole Super League thing is that the new CL format which was released around the same time is horrendous

It was first mentioned last year - it's coming in for sure.

 

The 5 sub thing further reduces the element of "luck" in football. Every decision the game makes favours the bigger teams.

 

It's shit for FPL too.

Quite apart from whether it benefits one team or another, the 5 subs rule is bad for the game in general. There's been a real disjointedness in games in Europe over the last couple of years once large numbers of subs are made, the flow of a game often disappears completely and the last 20 minutes is just spent watching players go on and off.

 

Diabolical if you like a bet on yellow cards as well. :anguish:

Big clubs often don't make so many changes against each other too.

They have included 2 spots for historical performances, plus another spot for something else. However neither spot will come at the expense of a club qualifying via the league and the most spots a country can have in the Champions League has increased to 6.

It'll come at the expense of any club having to play against them. The whole thing absolutely stinks, football is already un-meritocratic enough as it is.

I hate this change but also hate that they have just forgotten that there is a number between 3 and 5.

 

4 plus a concussion sub is more than enough

3, plus a Concussion and a GK on sub.

If they are going to have a 5 sub rule I’d make it mandatory that at least one youth academy prospect is included in the 5.

Or you have to name a match day squad and can only have 5 subs.

 

Even then I think 3 is fairer.
