Agree with him if you like. That's fine. It's a matter of opinion. My opinion is that making 3 subs with 45 mins of football to play when the conditions are far from perfect and when you are a goal down isn't the smartest move. They could have gone all out for the first 15 of the second half and then made 3 subs. Or they could have made 1 or 2 and kept a 3rd for later. It was a gamble and it didn't pay off.

You might not finish matches with that many injuries but injuries are a frequent occurance in football. It's my opinion that going a complete 45mins when you might need to make tactical changes with any possible back up plan is not bright.

I'm just a complete and utter cretin though so what do I know?
