It certainly won't encourage teams to settle things in normal time

Still don't see why it is needed or makes anything better

Players are tired... so what?

One thing that's better if we don't allow the additional sub I reckon is that it doesn't remove the tension built up by all the effort put in. It's where the drama begins

Why even have subs at all? Players are tired. Let them be tired.

Still waiting to hear why it's necessary... why only one sub. So arbitrary.

Gotta please the FIFA video game players I guess

Moar pace, moar exzitement

But really, he doesn't even says 'what?', says 'shto?'. Wouldn't be easy for him in Turin if Russian is his only language.

Didn't it take Krasic like 2 years to speak basic Italian? Lazy slavs

A fresh player has the potential to spark some life into the game then, rather than expecting it to just spontaneously occur with the same 22 players, no?

Likewise he has the same potential to run around in midfield closing down passes, doesn't he?

Did you move to western europe already and not tell us?

@Alen Denmark will most liekly start 6 field players above 1.90cm. We are going to defend and bet on set pieces/throw-ins

Why 3 subs in regular time? Why not 2 or 4? So arbitrary.

Sure, a valid tactic. But I think it makes more sense to go for the result then, rather than throw on a Cuadrado to just defend some more. Why have any subs at all other than for injury then?

If i had to guess i would say it's because the third sub was often unused as most coaches would rather leave it than play with 10 in case injury happens and all 3 subs are already used.
Thanks to this extra sub coach can use 3 subs with no regrets.

You tell me, since you think then change was necessary.

You have to. At least four years.
