Re: 2019-20 English Football Thread

New Rules for the Premier League moving forward: https://www.skysports.com/football/n...kicks-and-more

New Handball rule says that accidents now count it seems?

VAR is happening, the official will be remote.

Subs now leave the pitch at the nearest touchline instead of the halfway point

Goal Kicks no longer need to leave the penalty area to be "in play"

a few more as well

Re: 2019-20 English Football Thread

Had no clue about the goal kick change.

So the next question is how close are players allowed to stand to a keeper taking a goal kick? The writing in the article suggests players don't even have to leave the box anymore, which to me is just silly. This seems like a change that really only benefits a couple teams.

"Faster and more dynamic start to the game after goal kicks" is really not something I'd imagine being at the top of most people's complaint list. Actually the only person I've ever heard complain about not being able to do that is Klopp.

This honestly just seems like a change that mostly benefits Liverpool and to a lesser extent City, vs teams that play it out of the back. Teams like Burnley are still going to launch the ball into the stratosphere on every goal kick.

I really don't see how this benefits the league as a whole, especially if attackers can stand really close to the ball.

That Foden goal from the U21 Euro game......man.

City is going to from David Silva to Bernardo Silva to Foden. That’s going to be ~10-15yrs of pure class at that position.

Feel really bad for the fans of Newcastle. It is going from bad to worse. First Rafa leaves, now their 2 top scorers have gone. Ayoze Perez is having a medical at Leicester right now. Salomon Rondon's loan move from WBA is NOT being made permanent and they are looking to replace him with Huddersfield's Steve Mounie.

I’m assuming they recall Mitrovic then but ouch, Perez and Rondon were huge for them down the stretch.
