RlCO 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 did you see that programme that was supposed to be a comparison of the 1955 cup final and the 07 cup final? The football was shit! in both finals... seriously though I don't think this is a good thing. It does favour the big clubs, they can bring on internationals with the ability to change the game, wheras the smaller squads will struggle to have 19 premiership standard players. You can still only change 3. If you can't keep 3 international subs fit that between them are good enough to cover each position you shouldn't be in the premiership.

The Fish 11080 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Arsenal could feasibly have a bench which could account for numerous tactical reshuffles to counter any number of possibilities, without surrendering a single ounce of quality. But Derby would struggle to have players good enough to sit on their bench, so quite how they'll benefit from having more average players on their bench is beyond me. I honestly see the bigger clubs padding their bench with more and more high quality players, we'll see more rotation and we'll see a bigger gap between the haves and have nots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did that really need explaining. And how 3 subs are meant to cover 11 positions adequately or as well as 7 is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single move now by governing bodies will be to protect the franchise of the 'bigger clubs'. Globalisation eh Parky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7318 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 The laws of the game werent changed on over 70 years or something similar. In the last 20 odd years though weve had hundreds of changes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 The basic rules of the game have remained the same though. And this has no impact on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can call them specialists, and name them things like OFFENCIVE LEFT and DEFENCE CENTRAL and SPECIAL TEAM KICKER. Fucking hell man, if you need 7 options to beat the opposition you aren't much cop as a manager are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big clubs with shit managers. Souness could have an entire WC squad and 11 changes, he still wouldn't beat ferguson with 3. It's a non issue.
