Stupid idea slanted towards the likes of City and Chelsea just spening their way to dominance.

Whilst I don't disagree with your sentiment, much like my own towards the media "Favourites", it might be because of the covid virus that many teams have had in their squads. It has a lasting effect by the seems of it. I've ? been lucky to avoid it but some of my friends have felt it very debilitating.
Gives all teams a chance to refresh players during a match if they're still suffering.

Did you have issues with the FA Cup and EFL allowing 5 subs since last season and this season? Or any issues with Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1, Bundesliga, Eredivisie, Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference league also allowing 5 subs each game? The reason for the change is for player health and I'm glad they've taken this step.

I'm struggling to understand why the PL didn't feel the need to adopt it this season, but does for next season when COVID is less of an issue.
