Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted it 'feels like I am on the only voice' in his bid to reintroduce five substitutions in the Premier League.
The German has fought hard for the rule change after clubs were permitted to use extra subs during the Premier League restart in the summer, but has questioned why that has not been the case this season - with his team picking up a flock of injuries.
His argument has triggered a quabble among managers, with some bosses fighting for relegation claiming it is unfair that those with more resources and stronger depth would be allowed to bring on more of their top stars.
