"Introduced for this campaign, broadcasters have been given greater behind-the-scenes access, allowing filming inside the dressing rooms and the ability to do half-time and in-game interviews with players and managers. If fans were sceptical about these additions before the season started, seeing the half-time interviews actually take place hasn't done a great deal to change their minds yet. But it's early days."
"I was the live match reporter for TNT Sports for the Manchester City vs Tottenham game, and we did a half-time interview with Spurs boss Thomas Frank. As well as being a first for the season on the network, it was also a first for me as a reporter. I had so many questions about how it would work, and as with everything on a matchday at a Premier League ground, it's meticulously planned."
Broadcasters have been given behind-the-scenes access to film inside dressing rooms and to conduct half-time and in-game interviews with players and managers. All 20 clubs unanimously agreed to allow the interviews. Each club must agree to participate in one of the three features only twice per season. Host broadcasters must request a half-time interview five days in advance, and clubs have until 24 hours before kickoff to accept and decide timing and location during the interval. Clubs can withdraw permission at the time of the interview if their team are losing. Half-time interviews must be positive and limited to no more than three questions.
