Whether people are in favour of it or not, the 5 subs next year could really play into our hands. Being able to switch out both wing backs on 60/70 minutes to refresh them and still having 3 subs left is a huge plus.
This leads on to what others have been saying, we need quality on the bench and we shouldn’t look at it from a “can’t buy player x as that means player y might not start” point of view. Having a quality squad of 22 odd outfield players, gives Conte so much flexibility and coupled with the 5 subs, will hopefully mean our mid week short rest games become as good as the full week rest ones.
