[quote=Anonymous]My observation is the following. Defenders (even the outside ones) rarely get subbed. Midfielders tend to get subbed the most by dumb coaches or by coaches that play a lot of direct (non build up) ball. Forwards are subbed often too, as that allows bench warmers some time on the pitch without risking a goal being scored (again as most coaches don’t understand opportunity loss). Personally, when I coached I liked a consistent rotation of 4 subs, maybe 5 for tournaments. 1 for striker, 1 for outside mids, 1 for inside mids, and 1 for defenders. Let starters play 60-75% and subs 40-25% depending on skill drop off level. Regardless of position the best players stay on the field 75% of the time but also get at least some breather, but only once in order to keep a good rhythm. [/quote]
