Another question! Does anybody understand the substitute rule? As you can see Hojgberg didn't play because he was injured and not in the squad (well after the transfer deadline, he wasn't even showing an injury during the match.) As you can see I have a midfielder in my substitutes. So... why hasn't he been automatically substituted in? As usual the official rules are uselessly unclear:
But if one or more player doesn't feature they may be automatically substituted. This makes ordering your substitutes correctly important.
If any outfield player doesn't play, he will be substituted by the highest-priority outfield substitute who played in the Gameweek and doesn't break the formation rules. (For example, if your starting XI has three defenders, a defender can only be replaced by another defender.)
So does this mean a substituation would only occur if my midfielder was in position 1, or am I reading it wrong? How the **** is that fair if so, you've got to guess which player/position will get injured!?
