ITT: We fix soccer

I'll start

>no offsides
>red card for diving
>shot clock

A clock that stops when the ball is kicked out of bounds, a penalty is committed, a goal is scored, or the ball is ruled dead in some other way

>shot clock
This.

Time is the ultimate game design mechanic. Not even being facetious here.

You couldn't even win against T&T, what makes you think we will listen whatever you have to say about football?

Add a rule similar to a backcourt violation in basketball

Don't you have a small oil rich nation to liberate Trayvon?

>no offside

Into the trash it goes.

...

>no offsides

so ultimate hoofball then

Your ideas are shit fatboy

FEEFA wants our shekels, Juan

>no offsides
This is the most idiotic thing ever.
Offside literally makes the game. Might as well allow handballing while you're at it.

>shot clock
That would only make more games end 0-0. Think how hard it is to actually score. Now imagine you have a time constraint AND the defending team doesn't need to pressure high up the pitch and can just play deep defence know you're basically try to rush it in.

>Add a rule similar to a backcourt violation in basketball
Same as above. It would make it easier to defend. At least it would now favour high pressure making the game more ectic.

This I like. I really see no reason why they haven't done this yet.

just this technology in every match, with ref having a smart watch that can display the instant rep of the doubtful plays

Here are a few changes from someone who invented the sport:

Challenges, just like in any sport that isn't ridden with corruption, would stop any kind of bullshit by actually using the cameras and have the officials analyze what ACTUALLY happened. From offsides to shitty unfair penalties/red cards, this shit would fix the sport completely.

Stop the clock once the ball is not being played, and play two halfs of 35 minutes each with no added time at all, the game ends once the the clock reaches 70 minute mark.

Teams can't make changes in the last 12 minutes of the game unless something serious happens (player dies, etc..)

>No offsides

If you've ever actually played a game where it's not called you'd know how awful the game becomes without it. Someone just stands at the top of the box and waits so the defense has to stretch leaving huge gaps in the middle for uncontested shots. And if the defense decides to keep their shape it just turns into lobbed balls over the top all game

Easy.
>you can use your hands

>no offside...s

hoofball it is then

>Teams can't make changes in the last 12 minutes of the game unless something serious happens (player dies, etc..)
Why though?

>>no offsides
Won't work on a 105m long pitch. Just watch futsal instead.

There's only two changes worth making

1. Penalize diving
Encourage more physical play and strictly punish players who go down easily or fake an injury

2. Allow players who sub off to come back on
Keep the 3 sub limit but allow the three who sub in and out to continuously come on and off the field. Fresher players mean better play, really a no brainier

Time wasting is a fucking disease. It would force most teams to use their subs consciously.

Just stop and start the clock, there's no reason to have arbitrary time tacked onto the end when you could just properly keep time in the first place.

cut the time from 90 to 60.

This post is retarded and you don't even watch soccer and stop pretending like you do.

And the only half decent suggestion was the diving one. But people already get carded for diving. Something BETTER would be retroactive match bans for diving.

Bigger net and a 2 point line to encourage longer shots.

review flops after game and issue 1 or 2 game bans. 2 games for a blatant dive, 1 game for rolling around pretending to be hurt after contact. or alternatively, just ban all the south americans.

>Stop the clock once the ball is not being played, and play two halfs of 35 minutes each with no added time at all, the game ends once the the clock reaches 70 minute mark.
Very radical idea but I love it. It would cut out so many issues with time wasting, faking injuries, rushing actually injured players back on the pitch etc. It might be neat to have a rugby ending where the game ends when the clock expires and the ball finally goes out of play

But you already installed the "stop the clock" rule..
Why can't I bring an extra attacker when I'm down by 1 with 10 minutes to go?

>double the size of the goal
>no more ties
>allowed to use hands inside the paint
>no more stoppage time, start the clock and stop it when needed
>breaks in the halves for commercials so viewers have time to go get a coke, cheeseburger and cake to snack on

People in the 1st world might start to care about your 3rd world "sport" if you implement some of these common sense changes.

>60 second shot clock
>if you possess the ball 60 seconds without attempting a shot on goal play is whistled dead
>free kick awarded to other team

Because faggots are going to find a way to time waste, it's better to be safe than sorry.

Allow goalkeepers to use handguns.

The catch is that they only have three bullets in the chamber and can’t reload, so they have to use them carefully.

Strategy lads.

>Shoot opposing goal keeper
>Shoot opposing coach
>Kill self
EZ PZ

Only worthwhile post in this whole thread.

One other suggestion, better money distribution. Losers shouldn't get more than winners necessarily, I mean this isn't communism, but maybe reward attacking teams more as opposed to successful bas parkers.

>extra sub if it goes into extra time
>penalize diving and flopping with retroactive bans
>mandatory goal line tech

Add more diversity

every "big" team has to play against Arsenal
