The disadvantage Tuchel is alluding to is that when the Champions League knockout stages commence, overseas clubs, including Chelsea’s round of 16 opponents Lille, will have had a less strenuous schedule.
“Of course [five substitutions should be allowed]. Zero chance [they will]. We are the only league that plays in winter, which I love, but we’re not protecting the players,” Tuchel continued.
“All other leagues have five changes. Then we compete against them in the Champions League. It’s a bit frustrating. It will not stop.
“Brighton will play a super physical game; then we have two games against Spurs, who are out of Europe and fully focused on the league and Carabao Cup.”
