I would guess so, not Spain, Italy or France …, “wait, they require your face show up at 9:30 on Monday in Italy?”.

Games are more global than before, so if you want to have better/bigger TV deal you have to consider people not only in Asia but also rest of the world. PL caters that well. On the other sides, you couldn’t force people changing local social norms and those are people will shownup in stadiums, not the one in front of TV. It needs to be balanced. And why single out football, people still go out late Sunday with whatever activities like concerts, shows, hanging out …
Dude, we even have weddings on Sunday evenings now :lol:

There are some truly average players there but also Matri scored 20 goals in 2010/11.

That will change the game, possibly even drastically. It will probably lead to more goals first and then the defending will adjust and the defence lines will start sitting deeper. :D

I assume it will be tested in some junior levels maybe, or then in some low leagues.

Pipo Inzaghi man :lol: he would have scored so, so much more had this rule been in place in his time. Unparalleled angling for any adventage in that guy, anything to compensate for everything else lacking in his game lol

Yeah that’s way too big of a change in the fine margins of how the game is played. I’m more in favor of using var review with a line drawn with a 2-3cm margin of error or something like that. No offside for a millimeter of a sleeve.

I miss the likes of Di Natale and Miccoli raking up goals and assists

I've advocated for this change, but giving it something of a trial period is the right way to do it because, you're right, it's a seismic adjustment to defensive strategy. This method of offside would essentially eliminate the offside trap as being a defensive strategy. Sounds like a great way to introduce more goal scoring until you see that what it does instead is lead to even more low block setups instead. If that ends up being the case, then we probably just took goals out of the game in the long run.

FIFA. A bunch of corrupt greedy fucks, who would do a World Cup tournament in every 3rd month of the year if they could.

GTFO with that rule. Just make it a bit realistic and fair. It doesnt have to be " your eyebrow passes the laser line, youre offside" , it doesnt have to be this either.

Ffp is a joke that suits the clubs with rich owners. No club who can afford lawyers to beat these stupid cunts and their shit case in court cares about that, it's enforced only on those who Uefa can demonstrate their power onto.
