The Best Moment To Use Subs?

[Rob]

Depends on the game. Sometimes I do it 20minutes in because the player is is a MR playing at AMC and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. I also change my teams shape after I am 2 up and that normally brings of a more defensive player.

i usually do one at half time if the match isn't going too well, or if a player has less than a 6 rating, then one at 60 mins, as my wingers are generally getting a bit tired by then, and then the remaining one(s) at 70-75 mins. Rooney is superb if i bring him on late, he got a hat trick in the last 10 minutes of my CL semi final against Juve after coming on after 76 mins. If i have any subs left late on i'll usually bring them all on with a few minutes left just to give them a chance of getting a championship winners medal

Its great when you have young players, and you can just introduce them for the last 20 minutes of games to get them some experience

Well...


I check at half time to see if any players have a 5 or lower rating or REALLY tired

if not then I check again till the 60th, 70th, 80th

if I'm losing I sub my low rated players, if I'm winning I sub the tired players

and I always make 3 subs a game, i feel its a waste not to.

TROD.

usually around 70' and I substitute the most tired players.

I always do the 3 subs. If I can give time to any young player, I do it.


i see some of you do substitute players on the injury time. does the clock keep on running while the substitution is done?

I do 30, usually, sometimes I try 50, but it's a bit tiresome on my players.

Nah, I don't buy into that pussy mentality. I'm like : "Get the f*ck back up Cisse and stop bitching about your leg or I'm gonna fine you two weeks wages. "

A couple of my players have died, but otherwise it's working out well.

I do tend to ignopre the light injuries On a cm03/04 match I had a player playing 70 minutes (after 20 he got the ''light'' injury) with a broken toe

70th min

 

[gian]

i do a sub at 60 - 70 mins. Or depends on the players condition. When he is under 60 i will sub him even if he has 10 rating. But i will try to win as much time as possible before sub him. In a 1 goal lead i usually play on 4-5-1 trying to make my mid stronger when they are pressing me so i will be able to hit on counter. In that case i will do 2 subs or 1 and will save a sub for a quick attacker on 85 or 80 to keep as many computer players as possible.

One thing which I have found, and which has been a constant (at least for me) going right back to 00/01 is that making substitutions in sets of two is far more effective, especially for turning games around when behind.
