And the thing is, this isnt a prudent strategy.

If you're playing a stronger opponent the last thing you want to do is give them more time at the end, especially in the era of 5 subs.

They're going to be fresher, hungrier and more desperate, the last thing you should want to tack on more extra time rolling about.

And goalkeepers wasting time really pisses me off.
