Given the number of games now (3 a week), I think 4/5 subs should be allowed but you can only make them at HT and/or 3 times during the game. 
The bottom half teams argued that they don't have the same qualities on the bench so it would be an unfair advantage.
With this argument in the PL over whether to permit 3 or 5 subs, I'm surprised no-one suggested a compromise of 4? Confused

That was a hilarious free kick by Xhaka

Nicely executed - but Chelsea had a four man wall and two midgets in the important positions

Xhaka saw this got the ball up over them and down fairly easily

Absolutely shocking defensive organisation

That Lampardo fella hasn't a clue

The Chelsea defence are so mannerly and stand offish

Model human beings

I think that could be a by-product of Frank Lampard's expensive private school education

Arsenal lead 3-0

The other side of the coin is more injuries will hurt the bottom teams more.

I did think the same but I also think they were more worried about Lacazette being the taker, which is why the taller players were on the right-hand side of the wall.

Liverpools last 7 away league games
Lost 7-2 at Villa
Drew with Everton
Drew with City
Drew with Brighton
Drew with Fulham
Beat Palace 7-0
Drew with Newcastle

Not exactly title winning form in any normal season. This isn't a normal season though and their home form is exceptional. 
I feel the young fellas who they've brought in at centre half, Phillips and Williams, have looked out of their depth at times in the two games this week and will be exposed against a better team

Even leaving out VVD, to be top after 16 games with Salah, Mane, Allison, TAA, Gomez, Matip all missing for a few weeks is good going. 

They will need to buy a CB in January.

Puskas award contender by Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze against my beloved Blades

Not dissimilar to Son's goal against Burnley

Lesta have been awarded 10 peno’s this season so far.

West Ham, West Brom and Burnley have none.
Should they be looking to win more with the new rules? Aim for the arms in the box lads.

Nowhere near a Puskas award winning level
Good goal, but he only went past two men

Great header by Jesus

Didn’t bother going for goal, was easier to go for the defenders hand. Easy peno.

KDB went off injured tho so Pep will be concerned.

Didnt realise there was a rule that it's only a penalty if the ball is going into the net when it hits the defenders hand. Steve McManaman broke that news tonight to us. 

Thought it was a clear peno, hand above the head blocking a header

Big big win as it looked like one of those nights for long periods. Villa had some great chances on the break too and are a good team. 

KDB looked like a hamstring injury, will be a big loss for next 4 weeks or so (i'd guess)
