Yeah rules change to help big 6 sucks,in less corrupt federations there would be rule changes to help out the other 14 teams too. I'm more worried about teams like Leicester, their season being ruined by injuries, too many games in few days because they don't have big sqauds.HIF wrote:KG Leonard wrote:Let's be realistic City will destroy Brighton like they scored 7 against Watford with 3 subs or 5 subs.

I'm torn with this rule changing, because this is going to largely benefit top 6 teams only. Other teams don't have good depth hence why they are mid to lower table sides. Now imagine City losing 1-0 to Brighton and now can sub on 5 players that can easily start for Brighton, meanwhile Brighton only having fringe players to sub on that would barely make the bench for other prem teams.
I think 5 subs is good if it gives more playing time, rest for all players in the 20 teams. It might protect players in Cups, extra time games,protect tired players, against injury risk.
Bending over backwards to help the big 6 . It's another nail in the coffin of real football. It makes me wish the superleague had got off the ground so that those who want elitist football can have it and the rest of us can watch real football.
I'm interested in helping smaller teams but I can't trust the motivation behind this rule...
