If you remove the rule, you'd probably get opposing players just camping out by the goal post. There would probably need to be some "you can't spend more than X amount of time near the goal if the action isn't X amount of yards from it" and that's just cumbersome.

There isnt any. Futbol is unorganized jogging in a feild thats way too large for the number of players, the timekeeping is shit, and nobody gives a shit about the skill it took to pass the ball to estavez el chavo. More scoring makes the game interesting and scoring takes skill

Both teams start the game with 10 points so no one complains about low scoring games.
Maybe dont play nonstop. Add some commercial breaks in. I dont have the attention span to watch all of that with no breaks. Plus i cant go to the bathroom or get food.

Ok grandpa.
Just allow harder tackles again
Shots off the post and out should be corner kicks, not goal kicks.
add a smaller goal above the goal worth 2 points
and a smaller goal above that worth 3
and a smaller goal above that worth 4
and a small flaming hoop worth 50
USE FUCKING REPLAYS FOR IMPORTANT CALLS THAT'S ALL IT NEEDS.
Objectively the only thing wrong with soccer is financial fair play (or lack thereof) and the diving.

No ties
Clock stops running when ball is out of bounds.
Teach players to shoot. Seriously, last time I watched the world cup about 40% of shots missed the goal entirely. You hardly even need a goalie.
>>67301795
who the fuck cares what its called? literally changes nothing about the game
The game has Hockey like substitutions but those can only occur during play and not during breaks in play where the ball goes out or a GK. Teams could choose to do full lines or sub one player off on a time. This would lead to fresher legs and potential openings for higher scoring.
All penalty calls must be reviewed by replay. Pretty much the only thing they need to do.

That would never work though. Nobody's going to accept a global cap, and so long as there's differences in the leagues' caps, there'd still be players gravitating towards leagues, instead of teams. Not to mention the money not spent on wages, would just go straight into transfer fees.

If you take away the sponsors from the kits or from the boards on the sides of the pitch, you'll have to insert them somewhere else, like in a commercial in the middle of the match that will obstruct the view.

Most commercial breaks occur during breaks in gameplay, turnover, scoring play, challenged call, half time, quarter time, ect. There are a couple of commercial breaks per game in order to meet advertising quota, but at that point it's either have that break or display the logo everywhere.
A sports league w/out advertising doesn't exist.
Keepers can use their hands in both penalty boxes. Would create interesting late-game situations akin to empty net in hockey.

Except when we do share the toy, you complain that it's fucking shit and needs a lot of fixing (and by "fixing" you mean making it fucking unusable), even though you already have several toys of your own that you like and play with all the time and don't really need this particular European kid's toy to be happy, and neither does he want you to "make it better" because he's happy with it already too.
>>67311076
What I'm getting at precisely is the "majority", as you put it, isn't everyone. Some of us know the sport well and the rules and are fans of teams ( even if some aren't the 'level' of EPL , Bunde etc ). But instead of letting us in on discussions etc, the option is becoming more of a blanket NOPE for the entire country.
There's equal blame on both sides for this coming about, but I expected better rationale from my European counterparts as the elders of the sport. Maybe I expected too much.
As an aside, the MLS thread pic was just to have an image. It's pretty irrelevant to the topic.

AMERICAN STADIUMS: JUMP UP AND DOWN AND CLAP TO COMMERCIALS

People in the US aren't passionate about sports at all. They all "follow" a team in each sport just so they can check the score and be part of a "cool" conversation.
In the rest of the world you have one team you support from when you're a kid to when you die. Through thick and thinn, Americans will never know the emotions.
https://youtu.be/7Ifv9-P2EOE
Fucking numale faggots
First half of season is one fixture against all the teams in domestic league.
For the second half, Top 4 go through to European league with 16 others top team across Europe. One fixture round robin to decide best team in Europe.
Other 16 teams are joined by top 4 in league below, and it's a one fixture round robin to decide who gets relegated, and who is the next best team in the country.
Adds a bit of excitement for the smaller teams to try and win the league without the top 4 dominance. Plus the European league would be awesome.

>Making the goalkeeper box curved or half circle.
Simply put players are abusing the extremities of the box.
It seems nowadays in football any movement in the box counts for "a goal scoring opportunity" even if the player who has been fouled is moving away from goal. So they charge in, go down and hope for the best.
See pic related.
I'd be more inclined to believe that a player being fouled at the circle position was indeed at a goal scoring opportunity. Yet players can also be awarded with penalty at the triangle location.
Lets not forget that the penalty kick conversion rate in football is around 80%
But what about goalkeepers? Keepers very rarely "play" in those areas. Most saves or ball handing is done within the half circle. So who is the massive box really for?
>>67311293
>Introducing the blue card to 11 a side games
>Doesn't work well in a sport with limited substitution
How so friend?
I've witnessed many situations where a blue card would have been more suitable than a yellow. One example would be players taking one for the team. Stopping a counter attack with a cheeky tackle because they were positioned badly. Why should the team be allowed to still have 11 men on at that time, especially if said tackle forced an unwanted sub? Players welcome yellows, even patting the ref on the shoulder sometimes. They would not welcome a 5min sit out.
Once again I welcome criticism.

Greatest sport in the world desu
Every country in the world should make "divegrass" its official name.
Done.

don't need fixing fuckface, only way it can be improved is if they introduce refs using video evidence for contentious calls like in rugby
>>67301707
Have a TMO like in Rugby, if you have that then you can give the correct call when dealing with dives/fouls and you wouldn't need goal line technology. Plus stop the clock when dealing with such and there would be no need for extra time.
>>67312429
When will FIFA be able to afford fancy technology?

The chinese letters are literally a direct translation to football you mong

That's actually a good suggestion

when they stop using their money to feather the nests of corrupt FIFA executives from third world countries
>no offside
>allow time outs for tactics discussions
>allow a team that already used their 3 subs to use an additional injury sub in case of injury
>draws go to golden goal
>remove all semen slurping
>>67301835
Offside stays but less players on the pitch.
>>67313604
No offside would literally ruin the game, why do you fuckwit yanks keep saying this?
I've on watched soccer like twice but why is the bonus time at he end so weird? It seems like officials just kind estimate how much extra time is needed. Can't they have an actual clock running?
>>67313656
it's left up to the referees discretion and it;s time added on for stopped play like injuries, substitutions etc. If a stoppage occurs during the game, like an injury for example, you will often see the ref look at his watch, then do so again when play restarts, that's him taking a mental note of how much time to add on.

Both football and soccer suck
>>67313688
That make sense. I just think they should probably have a more official clock for that kind of thing.
>>67313725
Agreed, but football in many cases is still an old stubborn sport which refuses to adapt. Look how long it took goal line tech to be introduced.
>>67313656
>>67313688
Honestly, there's little defense for the practice other than "that's the way it's always been done."
Not gonna lie, when I was a ref (youth and high school level) I just stopped my watch during substitutions or major injuries and restarted it when it play resumed.
>>67313725
Well I don't think that will ever happen because it might be seen as being overly officious and football is a game that is supposed to flow. 'Supposed to' being the operative words.
>>67313763
Some refs actually do that, you can actually see them hitting the stop button on their watch.
>>67313634
You're a fag m8
>>67313800
I'm a cigarette?
the second half starts 10v10, every 10 minutes each team loses a player
>>67311310
no, the ref doesn't let it happen all the time
>>67310358
>t. person who has never watched or played a soccer game in his life
0 - 0 gives each team 0 points
>>67301707
it really is the worst sport involving a ball, i don't like the NFL either. i'd rather fucking bowl or play pool or fucking frisbee
>>67314905
>NFL
>involving a Ball
It's literally an egg.
>>67314905
nevermind i forgot about golf that's the worst, then soccer
>>67311513
>Omg guis, in Europe we throw dangerous flares into packed stands that could severely injure people like were in some third world country!!!
no thanks muhamad
easy, just penalize the team that at the end of the game has possession for the longest amount of time
will force teams to take more shots and to gamble more, making it more exciting
4 teams. 4 Goals. 2 Balls.
>soccer is broken guys the same teams always win
>someone else wins
>soccer is broken guys...
come on now lad
Double the size of the goal....
Or,
- Instead of a red card from two yellows, it should be an automatic goal revocation. If you have 0 goals on the sheet, then it results in a player dismissal. An instant red would still result in dismissal.
- Each goal should be worth a point, meaning if you want to get somewhere you can't sit on your backside and keep it at 0-0.
- Failure to move the ball progressively forward within a certain time span should result in an indirect free kick for the opposition within the conceding teams half.
- If the ball is passed back to the keeper more than once within 30 seconds, free kick to opposition.
- Yellow card for more than 1 offside. So 4 offside plays in a game results in a double yellow, and a goal revoked.
- Player caught diving results in a penalty for the opposing team plus instant dismissal.
I could keep going.
it's really fucking simple
yellow card = 10 minute suspension
and add a 30 second shot clock so no tiki taka bullshit
>>67315192
Alternatively, a 0-0 scoreline = 0 points for both teams. The rest carries on under the normal points system.
>>67301707
>Make flopping an offense with the penalty being immediate ejection
>>67315247
I like this. Although for the size of the pitch I would increase shot clock to between 45-60 seconds.
>>67315270
This is more or less a rule in the PL, but you get a yellow rather than a straight red.
That's why Vardy has been banned recently. Got a second yellow for diving against West Ham.
Those damn La Liga fags are so convincing at it though, so it's hard to officiate. I bet they fucking practice it.
>>67315192
le autistic troll man
>>67315299
maybe give coaches one challenge per game to say a player flopped and review it?
Get rid of the MLELS
Just ban north americans from.playing, watching, entering any competitions, sponsoring, or even talking about it under penalty of death and then all the problems will just fade away.
>>67315505
Meanwhile, FIFA is more corrupt then ever and your next world cup is played in Zimbabwe
>>67315526
I would gladly have the world cup in north korea if it meant you burgers would shut the fuck up about it
>>67315505
And ban all soccer threads from /sp/
>>67315600
Or just have a separate quarantine board for all your spastic meme """"""""sports"""""""'
>>67315505
why can't we be friends?
>>67301707
No inury time.
A player who extends a foul play by laying down should be yellow/red carded unless he sustains a considerable injury.
Every play that leads to a penalty should be reviewed.
>>67315570
At this point I would rather talk to an American about football than someone from England. I cannot believe I even said that just now.
