LFF - firstly, are you a politician? Both of your replies to me cast a cloud on me personally; this is classic tactics of trying to make out am arguing for the sake of arguing - rather than focus on the points. Then You refer to it as a fantasy, without actually taking on an answer to one of my points. A true sign that you have no real answer..... and guess what, you haven't answered any of my points. You have simply said "everyone else says it, I must be right" - what an excellent and logic stance in a debate.
You have failed to answer my question and so maybe I should politically answer that must be because you don't have an answer. Let's try it again..... When is a good time to make a substitution?
As for players running on and giving instructions, of course I have seen that... Not Hesketh though, he just came on. So he just took on Tadic's responsibilities. Are to going to suggest that the other players stopped doing their jobs while awaiting instruction from the subs? No, didn't think so.
To take your continued stance to the audience of "look FLT is just being argumentative because that is what he does, so no need to answer him," I am debating this because I have conviction in my belief that there is not a reason in the modern game to not make a substitution at any point, UNLESS, you are making lots of tactical changes. It is simply one player taking the previous players responsibilities. As for all the pundits and fans not agreeing with me, that must be proof my belief is wrong eh? Nonsense. Perhaps they believe the world is flat.
I'll say it again clearly so you have no doubt of my point. I believe that with all the detail given to players in the modern game, a player can be brought on at any time to immediately take on the player he has replaced and their responsibilities. Players are prepared so well today that they can go on and pick up that role immediately. They are fresh and focused and have the very first instruction fresh in their minds for the next event, e,g, "mark no. 6 from this free kick". The only time that can possibly give a consideration it he he is going on to change some of the organisation of the team.
Now rather than simply cast dispersions about me, or saying everyone thinks the same as you, so you must be right, why don't you present an alternative reasoned view. That's how a debate works and I alwaysnhad you down as someone who respectfully did that.
As I said, you would debate black is white for ever and a day. How come you are the only person out of all these pundits, fans and managers who knows the truth? Sorry, you and Tom! I have never seen even you champion such a ridiculous cause. Most of what you argue for has at least some sense behind it and I am normally broadly in support.
Have you never watched a sub coming on and pointing to all the other players about whatever change of tactics has been planned? Obviously not. Clearly, you are looking at your own version of your fantasy.
Anyway, to add a bit of reality to this ridiculous debate I have to own up that it is actually all my own fault. I failed to wear my lucky Saints socks, even though they were clean and waiting. I only noticed it today. What can I say!?
