abstract:A squad rotation system is a technique often used in sport, usually association football, which is designed to rest players and give playing time to everyone, rather than to just play the same players in every game. Most football (soccer) teams incorporate it in some capacity, although some managers like to build their team around it, with a squad of about twenty regular first-team players.
In 1992 when it becametheChampionsLeague thegroup stagesmade it more difficult - and a little latercaused the squad rotationsystem, where moreplayers are needed.
After his goalscoring exploits last season, Bellion has featured slightly less frequently this term, thanks to Blanc's squad-rotation system, but he is content with life on the Garonne river and feels his maturity off the pitch is reflected by his play on it.
