In knockout matches, have shoot-outs at the start of a game. That way there'll be no games where both teams will be playing for penalties. Also maybe have shoot-outs in group stages of WC+EC. It would be a better tie-breaker than goal difference imo.

Abolish draws altogether, have a shootout at the end of every draw with the winner getting 2 points and the loser 1. Everyone wants to see goals, that way no-one will be disappointed with a 0-0 because they still get to see people score

If draws were abolished I'd rather see the points going to the team with the most shots on target before it went to penalties; 3 point for a win on goals, 2 for shots on target and 1 for penalties.

Managers get a challenge flag that forces video review of a call. Stoppage time is added. If the coach is wrong he loses a sub, if he is correct he gets another challenge flag. If a manager has no subs he can not challenge. E: not sure how to handle continuation Waroduce fucked around with this message at 16:34 on Jul 19, 2015 |

Lol that's terrible and I can't even begin to imagine the betting shenanigans that would affect it in the third world leagues and countries (like Italy).

Instead of following the ball, follow the off ball movement. Look for triangles to appear, dissolve and then reappear right before your eyes. Watch as player's heads swivel to find the man making the run for the second pass, not the first. Watch the tight control and decision making. Don't appreciate the pass that was made, appreciate the pass that wasn't because it was more difficult and less likely to be successful. Watch the instant pressure applied once the ball is lost. Appreciate the monumental patience and discipline required to maintain possession without making foolish passes for long stretches. Realize that they are making things that are incredibly difficult to do both physically and tactically look so easy that it becomes boring.

Establish an objective transfer system based on that one guy's FM-style stat pentagons, where every player has a fixed price and fixed wages based on how big their pentagon is.

This could lead to some insanely sick moneyball style stuff where teams develop alternate pentagons to try and find the best players with the smallest DZ SiBoTs

Why hasn't anyone ever, even as a joke, tracked yards per dribble. It would quantify who a good dribbler is with one number. Think of all the poo poo posts about Ashley Young's YPD

Messyass posted:Serious answer: salary cap Your dream may yet come true in what is likely the one place in UEFA where you didn't expect it to happen: the Russian FA has published the project of new financial rules for the league clubs. It, among other things, introduces a salary cap. The cap is at about 380000 USD. Per year. The clubs can have up to 3 overpaid players. Essentially, they are blindly copying the MLS rules. And no, it's not a joke, I've seen the rules myself.

Well, it's pretty harsh to judge a Russian salary cap in USD right now given the state of the ruble.

Why else would anyone go play in that third world wasteland? iirc a lot of RPL contracts for foreigners are paid in foreign currency so I imagine that if you're one of the overpaid players at an oligarch club in Moscow or St Petersburg getting paid more euros per week than the entire rest of the team makes each year it's probably still pretty nice.
