Jurgen Klopp has warned that England will suffer at next summer’s European Championships if the Premier League persists with the three-substitution rule.
Liverpool manager Klopp has long advocated the need to increase the number of possible changes to five, as was the case when football was resumed after the lockout, and several of his counterparts, such as Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, have supported his views.
Klopp is concerned that a schedule in which most teams play seven times before the turn of the year will have an impact on the fitness of the players, particularly those clubs that are also juggling European commitments.
It is inevitable that there will be consequences in terms of injuries in the future, but Klopp believes that it will be Gareth Southgate who will pay the final price, as many England players will be exhausted by the time the tournament begins in June.
“I am sure that we will discuss it again soon, due to the influence of three substitutes,” Klopp said. “Now almost all teams have to play every three days, it will be huge for everyone from now on and all teams will feel the difference. Next summer will be a problem for Gareth Southgate.
‘All the players Gareth wants to choose to play [European] soccer most of them, practically all. Most of them play three times a week, starting in February, and they play three times a week all the time. Gareth will get what we give him if we keep three substitutes.
“If we are left with three substitutes, then he has a problem, then it is an FA problem …” On Thursday there was a Premier League shareholders meeting and Klopp has criticized the chief executives who have voted against not increase the number of substitutions. claiming that they are not interested in the welfare of the players.
“I told you the facts,” said Klopp, whose side will face the Wolves at Anfield on Sunday. ‘At the managers meeting [in November]If we had voted that day, which we were not allowed to, it would have been 100% with 15 or 16 votes, whatever.
“That it hasn’t happened since is a sign that some shareholders, CEOs and sports directors view their managers differently. Actually, that’s not a good sign, to be honest. These people now really ignore the welfare of the players. Coaches don’t do that anymore, but these people do. That is not right.
‘If you don’t have the opportunity to vote for him you have to accept it for the moment, but since it is the well-being of the player, by the way, mental health and physical health, it is the complete package, we will not stop fighting for it because it is what I know. must do ‘.
