Jurgen Klopp’s wishes look to be coming true as the Premier League are set to announce the introduction of five substitutions to the league.
As reported by The Times: ‘Premier League clubs are set to make a U-turn tomorrow and agree to five substitutions per team being permitted from next season’.

Also of importance perhaps was (apart from 9 players being on the bench from 22/23 - great for youngsters) this : it was also confirmed that this summer's transfer window will open on 10 June and will close at 23:00 BST on 1 September, in line with other European leagues.

[article]Klopp is sure to make full use of the new change, with the German having used five subs the most during the Project Restart period. In the nine games that Liverpool played to finish the 2019/2020 campaign, they used five subs seven times.

That was the second-most in the Premier League, with Brighton using their full complement eight times. While Pep Guardiola is renowned as a manager not afraid to make changes to his team, the Manchester City boss only used five subs in four games.

Manchester United claimed third spot in the table that season, using five subs five times
, though they could be more tempted to use them under their new manager, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer having been sacked. The same could also be true of Chelsea, with Frank Lampard using his full range of subs just twice.

That could spell the future for Everton, who like City used seven subs four times. Mikel Arteta used five subs in more than half of the games Arsenal played during Project Restart and will likely again be one of the bigger users of it.

Antonio Conte is almost certain to totally revamp Tottenham's approach to the five subs rule, with Jose Mourinho having never used the full complement. The new rule will be one of the biggest changes to Premier League clubs for some time, with managers needing to get to grips with it quickly.

How many times each Premier League club used five subs in Project Restart (9 games)
1) Brighton and Hove Albion - 8
2) Liverpool - 7
3) Bournemouth, Norwich City - 6
4) Manchester United, Arsenal - 5
5) Manchester City, Newcastle United, Everton - 4
6) Leicester City - 3
7) Chelsea - 2
8) Wolves, Southampton, West Ham, Aston Villa, Watford - 1
9) Tottenham Hotspur, Sheffield United, Burnley, Crystal Palace - 0

Some tw@t of a Burnley fan was on radio earlier griping about this and how it would favour the rich clubs.

Maybe if his manager and team didn't play UFC instead of football there'd be less of a need for it.
 
How so?
I think there will still only be three opportunities in a game to use the five subs.
I just always think 3 subs. You still have tired legs out there.

5 subs and the chance of a stalemate increases as they don't get up to the 'speed of the game' before the final whistle.

Just my personal opinion. I know I'm in the minority.

No. I mean in the first sentence he says we used 5 subs the most times, then in the second one he says we were second only to Brighton.
Even LFC can't be be first AND second

I get ya
yeh Brighton used 5 the most times, well one more time than us
had to read it a few times hahaha to get my head round it
 
Is there anything to stop 5 individual substitutions on 90 minutes to kill added time? You could easily waste 2 minutes with that and the ref will never add it all back on

That's what has been said - you can't make 5 individual subs, you can use 5 subs but only in 3x substitutions (and HT) so e.g. 2x1, 2x1 and 1x1 so no change to the current regulations in that respect.
