CheddarReds Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Hi all, looking at the line ups and subs for the Serie A match between Inter and AC this evening (where there are some promising young players in both sides!) I saw that both teams had 12 subs. This is legal in Serie A which I didn't know before. Some positives of it are that it can give coaches more options from the bench and it stops players values decreasing if they aren't in the squad. However it might some teams couldn't fill the bench anyway if they only had a squad of 18 maybe. My question is, do we think this would be something we would like to see introduced to English football? And is it likely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Wouldn't like it, richer teams could just stockpile players and have stronger benches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including a teenager, Gigi Donnarumma, who's been in goal for Milan since he was 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downendcity Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 The dugouts must take up half the touchline in Serie A if they have to get 12 subs in each one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexukhc Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 12 subs and still manage to send about 75 on loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Imagine if both teams sent out all subs to warm up at once. 24 players running up and down the touchline. Could be easy to sneak one of them onto the pitch for 5 mins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a monster! He's like 6'6 I think. Saw a picture of him with his missus the other day and she's only about 5 feet! Found it funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
