7 subs

[geezer]

G4 and my request for 7 subs has been accepted and will run from next season.

About bloody time, at least some of the younger players can get some air time in games where we're 2 or 3 up with 15 minutes to go.

Great. Now you move on and request that Liverpool no longer will be called one of the "top four".

I'll let their results do that for them.

is this for real Geez?

I know in the "Messi article" thread I was all for putting some of the youngsters on the bench; however, this was met with comments such as "could take the place of someone we really need in the final minutes" or words to that effect. 7 subs would be incredible, as it would really let us offer some of the youth players first team football.

Hope that this is true

if this is true, somewhere Jose has got to have a little smirk on his face

it was common sense, but he threw so much verbal dung at the proverbial wall that something was bound to stick

It will definitely be nice to have those extra bench options/spots for the sinclairs, sahars and di santos of the world

Yes it's true. The Premier league announced it yesterday but it got hidden under the kerfuffle of their playing overseas proposal.

Papers this morning confirmed it.

Luca was asking for this a long time before Jose was however from what I have read (and correct me if I have missed this) there is no stipulation that two of the named subs have to be under 21. That is something that I think should be enforced.

Seems like big changes around in the premiership at the moment.

I can't see it making big difference really (the subs that is)
