Law changes starting next season.

Dropped ball Laws 8 & 9 Changes •If play is stopped inside the penalty area, the ball will be dropped for the goalkeeper •If play is stopped outside the penalty area, the ball will be dropped for one player of the team that last touched the ball at the point of the last touch •In all cases, all the other players (of both teams) must be at least 4m (4.5yds) away •If the ball touches the referee (or another match official) and goes into the goal, team possession changes or a promising attack starts, a dropped ball is awarded ?

• When there is a ‘wall’ of three or more defenders, the attackers are not allowed within 1m (1 yd) of the wall; an attacker less than 1m (1yd) from the ‘wall’ when the kick is taken will be penalised with an indirect free kick - this favours the team conceding the free kick. 

Substitutes Law 3 Changes • A player who is being substituted must leave the field by the nearest point on the touchline/goal line (unless the referee indicates the player can leave quickly/ immediately at the halfway line or a different point because of safety, injury etc.)?

Goal kicks and free kicks inside the area, next season the ball will not have to go out of the area to be touched, that’s going to be fun for teams that want to play out from the back.

Imo this will have a detrimental effect on good football, keepers will kick long far more often I would think.
