but if you rotate a bit, even if only to rest players occasionally

then backup players will have played the odd game, kept more fitenss and confidence.

Whereas if they barely get a minute on the pitch for months - because you play the same XI week in week out, if you can - then they're gonna find it tougher when they're finally called on. (And probably lack confidence.)
