The head coaches of the top three clubs in the Premier League asked the league to bring back the 5-substitution rule, which was in effect at the end of last season.
“This is the system. Personally, I think there should have been five changes from the beginning. It can happen. We never ask for any advantage. “– said Liverpool mentor Jurgen Klopp.
Pep Guardiola did not step aside, citing important statistics.
“They have to reconsider this decision, 100 percent. This is not important for any particular club.” Muscle injuries in the Premier League increase 47 percent last season due to the number of games and the fact that most teams did not have time to prepare.
All leagues – Germany, Spain, any other – allow five substitutions to protect the players, not to protect any team. “
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer called this season the toughest ever.
“I don’t understand why the clubs voted against it, I can’t believe it, we have to watch the players. We have to think about them. This is the most difficult season in history.”
We have to think about professional footballers, about their physical and mental health “– said Solskjaer.
Note that in October 98 injuries were announced at Premier League clubs. In total, during this calendar year in the league, players received 423 seriously injured, according to premierinjuries.com. There are currently 91 players in the infirmary.
