If they want to play gegenpress, they have to rotate their squads more.

Adjust the way you play to the competition. The competition should not be forced to change according to how the ‘big clubs’ want to play

I hear what you are saying and I agree that managers should adjust to the schedule. But your response is why I ask the question.

To me, the focus of the discussion seems to be more about preventing the bigger clubs from getting more of an advantage and less about whether five subs would actually help the smaller clubs. I want to look more at the latter than at the former. I am less concerned if it helps the bigger clubs a little if it helps the smaller clubs more. I don't know if it does or does not. I just don't want to dismiss it out of hand because the bigger clubs are the ones suggesting it.
