Jurgen Klopp will be delighted with the decision by Premier League clubs to reimplement the rule that will allow teams to make five substitutions per game.
The rule had been used during the Project Restart return to football for the final rounds of the 2019/2020 season. But it was discontinued in the two campaigns following that, with top-flight teams reverting to three permitted changes per match.
It was a rule that has frequently frustrated Liverpool boss Klopp, who has consistently made his support for five subs clear. Many of Europe's other top leagues had kept the change permanently despite the easing of coronavirus restrictions, with England left as an outlier.
