I say the opposite

make it the size of a doorway and have no goal keeper

Then I’d say change it to a basketball hoop size. Some players are insanely accurate, a door sized goal would be way to easy for the professionals

This will not make it more fun to watch. It’s fine how it is

Make the field + shaped and 4 teams play at once

They hardly get shots in goal. Goalies hardly make any saves. How about half the team must remain over the centre line in the o zone?

Make it a yellow card to fake/embellish anything and triple the amount of refs on the field.

Just make everyone have to get naked the players, the referees, the fans except one guy he has to wear a giant banana costume and everything else can stay the same that’s a sport

Smaller pitch, more people.

Or play it like ice hockey where they can bounce it off walls too

Get all the players fucked up on quaaludes too. If they like rolling around on the pitch that much, should give em reason

Yet it will be impossible to defend the goal and it will be an endless stream of scoring and long shoots that can easily get in

Uhm I think you got the wrong presentation Make soccer goals 50% smaller is what you where looking for

This already was propposed many years ago, the result was Americans creating their own sport and calling it "Football"

How to fix soccer: Make the field smaller. Too many players on the field. Limit to 3 forwards, 2 defenders, and a goalie. Players can come in and out when we they want, no stopping the game. Shrink the goal. Ice everywhere.

This is one of the worst things I’ve heard about football in a while lmao. Poor goalkeepers lol.

Just make the field smaller. More shots=more goals

It would be really boring, because everyone would just shoot the second they are close enough (which is still outside the box). It would basically be like if basketball only had 3 pointers.

What the hell is soccer? Well if it's a pretend game let's make sure it's only played with hands and the players have too toss an oval shaped ball.

Remove the goal keeper so both teams can have 1 extra player actually moving the ball up and down the field 😂

No it won't. The game is boring because they play so safe to keep possession and take dives for penalty kicks.

Just make all tackles legal. They won't fake injuries anymore because even real ones play on, and they'll move the ball more for the sake of their precious ankles.

Making all tackles legal would be a real bad idea. It's super easy to just severely injure an opposite player with a nasty tackle to the ankle.

Fake injuries should be discouraged by simply stopping the clock and resuming once play resumes. And fake dives for penalties can be discouraged with the VAR and giving yellow cards more easily for fake dives.

Also, I personally feel that talking back to the referee should be punishable by a yellow card. In almost no sport it is allowed in any way, yet in football it's almost the norm to start an argument with the referee once the whistle blows.

obscureferences t1_iycqk5b wrote

That's what makes it a good idea. If the risk is severe injury they'll get rid of the ball.

Agree on the ref shouting too. It never works and looks pathetic.

Get rid of offsides. It slows the game down and is hard for most observers to understand. It’s also stupid.

Punish fake injuries and possibly get rid of personal fouls. Have a penalty box like hockey. Maybe only allow players to kick each other.

Make legitimate close shots on the goal result in a corner kick instead of turning the ball over to the goalie. This way players are rewarded for taking risky shots. And a missed shot doesn’t result in the game’s momentum halting to a stop. It’ll result in more goals and make plays happen more often.
