PreMatch | Liverpool vs Southampton | PL Matchday 28 | Saturday March 8th 15:00h

Is the PSG match thread open yet… Lets get the mood set

Head injury concussion sub is only for Southampton right or Is it for both the teams ?

Which is stupid but i guess it stops teams holding on to a 1-0 lead, faking a head injury and having extra sub

5 wins gets us the league now. Arsenal need to win all their games to get beyond 85. And there’s no way they are doing that.

Won’t the team using APCSs and also three normal substitutions have a possible advantage by having more fresh players on the field than their opponents?
No, because once an APCS takes place, the opposing team are given the right to make an additional “normal” substitution at a time of their choosing.

You can actually go up to 7 substitutions with these rules.

Pity Chiesa didn’t get that 6th spot. Read somewhere he needs more time to get a winners medal.

He’ll get one. There is a threshold above which the league are required to give a player one. But they give out a collection above that limit the club then decide how to divvy out

The standard rules are 5 subs across 3 stoppages (half time subs don’t count as a stoppage) I think there is a caveat that you can only use the bonus subs if you have a stoppage remaining

Should have kept the arsenal United match today.

Nothing would gut them more than knowing the result of the match just prior to heading out to the pitch.

Both teams used 6 subs…ref and 4th official are supposed to keep a check…but 6 each no team had an advantage…the men in black should’ve kept an eye on the tickets…
