mozo Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Right, we're all going slightly mad in the off-season so have a bang on this... Football. 2 points for a goal inside the area. 3 points for a goal outside the area. All you have to do now is tell me how much of a genius I am and we can all go back to the transfer tedium...

Means teams need to commit to attacking, if they play out slowly not wanting to go over half way teams can press with a bit more confidence as once they've played the out ball they won't be able to retreat again.

ExiledAjax Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Kick off like in table football. Instead of the ball starting static on the centre spot it is flicked by a giant mechanical finger from the edge of the pitch along the halfway line at high speed. On the opposite side of the pitch is a board to bounce it back into play. Also, let's be honest some goals are better than others. Therefore I'd also be a fan of implementing extra "style points" for goals. Back heels, rabonas, step overs in the build up, all these and more would contribute between 0.1 and 0.5 of a goal.

Robbored Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Doing away with the penalty spot.......a free kick is awarded from wherever the infringement took place. That’ll do away with diving, lots of the VaR reviews and defenders lined up on the goal line...........actually that’s not a stupid idea at all.......

That would just lead to defenders taking out a player every time they go to shoot, knowing full well they'll be able to regroup for the free kick.

Would teams station a striker permanently on the edge of the penalty area? Would both defences presumably be forced to defend very deep, creating huge space in the middle of the park for midfielders to roam? Would the game actually work without offside? It would be an interesting experiment just to see what an offside-free game looked like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhistleHappy Posted July 19, 2019 Report Share Posted July 19, 2019 Flood lights that do what it says on the tin.. Everyone get drenched in the opening few minutes, pitches are turned into mudbaths and the whole playing surface flooded to a depth of at least one and a half inches for the final five minutes of each game. Ahh, come on …. Splish, splash we'd have such a laugh ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the team pressing also can’t get back in their own half if I’m getting this right so a hoof over the top takes them out the game,sounds right up FIFA’s street that nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOTRED Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 How about having the goals increase in size during injury time, or perhaps the last 5 or 10 minutes of the game? This could be achieved by each goal post sliding slowly towards its respective corner flag. Could make life interesting for goalkeepers and defenders.
