Crystal ​Palace boss Hodgson happy with three subs decision

Premier League managers are split on the decision to stick with three subs instead of five.

But Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson is in the camp which is happy with that decision.

"We were asked at the start of the season whether we thought five subs were a good thing for our club or not.," explains the Palace boss.

"At that stage here at Crystal Palace it was decided that five subs did not suit us in what we needed to do to do well in the league and we voted against it.

"Nothing has changed in that respect.

"In the latest vote, and I don't even know because I haven't spoken to Steve Parish, I presume we voted the same way again because we think three subs is sufficient."
