I am an American and this is my uneducated opinion.
It's monkeyball, you're not supposed to say smart things.
>>142827581you kick balls?
Shootouts should be done like they did them in MLS 1.0
>>142827624Loved those meme penalties.
I'm drunk but I opened this thread 5 mins ago and I've been thinking about it.Like, your suggestion makes sense, since the guy who takes the penalty has to aim right, and the luck factor isn't about the goalkeeper deflecting the ball by pure chance but rather because he guessed right.In a way it makes sense, now I'm gonna look up this >>142827624 >>142827644 and see what they're talking about
>>142827581>>142827624Both of these are ok in my book. Where is the link to sign your change.org petitions?

>>142827728this is pretty good
>>142827728Is it me or is the pitch featured in that video quite a bit smaller than the ones used today by most European leagues? It seems to have been used for American football due to the imprints on the grass but I can't tell for sure if it's the magnification of the camera that gives the illusion of it being smaller.
>>142827581Penalties are called that because they are literally penalties. If you make them harder then intentional fouls become a better idea.TL;DR: shut the fuck up you dumb faggot, eyes off our (boring ass) sport
>>142827624because they were good
Honestly, the very concept of pens is daft and tells you how flawed the game is. A lot of amateur clubs back in ye olden days refused to take them.
>>142827581Penalty spot is the same, but as soon as the ref blows the whistle to shoot all players can move freely, no over the line before the kick bs>>142827728Good players would just chip the goalie everytime
>>142827728This is fun, but I'm pretty sure it would be even harder for keepers.
>>142827728I don't know how to explain it but 1990s US soccer has an absolutely unreal amount of sovl.
>>142827728kino
So like hockey (not ice hockey for you Canadian retards)? No.
>>142827581Realistically penalties are just a way to get the game to end. It's supposed to be easy to score so you just keep scoring until someone fucks up.Putting the ball further back would just mean it gets saved more often meaning it's not about waiting for someone to fuck up instead it's waiting for someone to score. The former is more entertaining.
>>142827581>I am an American and uneducatedsounds about right
>>142827610Kek
just make the penalty from the exact point where the foul was commited.
They should do penalties like hockey. You have to dribble from the half and shoot before the penalty mark. There once again I solved soccer.
>>142827728europoors and spicland could NEVERGod bless america
>>142828893>he doesn't know
>>142827581Penalties shouldn't even be a thing. They should just be free kicks from the spot of the foul. You shouldn't get a freebie goal because you dived in the edge of the box, the thing is way massive.
>>142828893Making them have to dribble the ball from the top of the box to the circle sounds more fun.
>>142828861backpass allowed in such a case
>>142828917Amigo, we are talking about when the game is tied and has to be won with penalties, not penalties from fouls.
penalties should be taken wherever the foul was commited like every other foulgod soccer is so fucking stupid
>>142827624agree
>>142828933and also like any other foul the goalie can't be within 10 yards or whatever
>>142828927You can do without penalty shootouts by fixing the semen slurping aspect of soccer. There are things that can be done but semen-loving purists would never allow it. Other sports go to overtime less often because they have higher scores (and since playing overtime is rarer, they can get away with playing several overtimes if necessary, as opposed to settling the whole thing with a shitty minigame). Imagine settling the NBA finals with a free throw contest in a tied game 7.
>>142829041>Imagine settling the NBA finals with a free throw contest in a tied game 7They don't have basketkeepers
>>142827581>>142827603The point of the penalty is that is half a goal, so you try not to make a foul inside the box. That helps the sport to have more goals and be better played because you can play better close to the goal.
>>142827581Replace penalty kicks with pic relatedeplace penalti shootouts with 90s MLS shootoutshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRITqS6WEn0
>>142828424It had a 50/50 chance according to statistics back in the day, it was much fairer for keepers. Shootouts should be done like this, normal penalty kicks should stay the way they are.
>>142827581Our goalkeeper complained but he gave up because he already had a yellow card.
>>142827945I could make sense though when penalties are used after a tie.Since this happens a lot now it could be good to have another kind of penalties just for that, right now the the way we do it isn't great.
Penalties should be kicked by the guy they made the foul, that way there would be no tap in merchants
>>142829932>Penalties should be kicked by the guy they made the foul
>>142829932that would be a correct take with good grammar
>>142829932Teams would just drill cbs to take pens even more and you'd see the quality of footy drop across the board.
>>142827728it removes the western duel kinography
>>142827624yeah those were kino
penalties should only be kicked by the goalkeeper>allows the goalie to get a goal from time to time>ensures the goalie is playing FOOT ball
