Dawn of the Suarez

Time for Liverpool to ditch Suarez. He's a liability and he pisses me off.

He also almost singlehandedly took them from mid table purgatory to champions league and a near league title.

Oh it's true. Good memory.

I will never understand it.

"Yay, we tied!"

"Who won the game?"
"Nobody, it was a tie."
"Oh that's cute, was it your 3rd grade team? Whose turn was it to bring orange slices?"
"No actually it's world class international professional soccer. Half the time nobody actually wins the game."
"

Letting group play sort itself out with a crapshoot like penalty kicks surely would ensure the top two most deserving teams would advance!! Why has this not been set in place already?!?!

I see what you did there.

How about a 30 minute overtime. Sudden death. Offsides not called as a penalty.

That may cut down on ties and wouldn't be as much of a crapshoot as PK's.

Sudden death would increase draws

Yeah I don't understand why offsides is needed in soccer. If the def doesn't want to play back and defend, that's their problem.

Can someone explain how offsides helps here?

Post by **Bammer** » Wed June 25, 2014 4:10 pm

Ok fine. Make it even simpler.

No more offsides penalties.

Without offsides you'd have players just waiting in the box for long passes and it would make the game stereotypical and boring.

They actually tried it in MLS one year and it was a debacle.

If they allowed biting this wouldn't be an issue.
