- England manager worried by injuries during current break
- ‘I have to be fair to the club managers,’ says Southgate
Gareth Southgate wants a rethink on the Premier League’s limit of three substitutions per side per match as he fears players could suffer serious injury in the hectic fixture schedule caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
The England manager, who is also unhappy at the lack of a winter break this season, has followed Jürgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola in questioning why the league has not sanctioned the use of up to five substitutes.
