Yeah, i hate it too. It's obviously encouraged by managers too

Why wouldn’t it be? It stops an attack dead.

It shouldn't tho refs can see if it's a serious Injury, not just a hand on the chest ffs the rule was supposed to be a serious head injury

 

[Psychedelic Casual]

Too much time is wasted on setting up these free kicks

Takes f…o…r…e…v…e…r for them to take any set piece.

The ref thinks it’s a head injury, as he’s holding his face. The laws state the gsme needs stopping for head injuries.

I don’t see an easy solution to fix the issue. You don’t want players hiding hesd injuries either.

It ruins the game i love but they know refs can't take the chance with 'head' injuries.
Players going down holding their head should have to leave the field for concussion protocols

Free kicks outside the box take too much time in general, but I agree, Arsenal make any set pieces into a paint-watching session

That would end up with players hiding head injuries though and the game would get pelters for that.

Hockey have an embellishment penalty. Refs can use the flexible unsporting behavior to yellow card players who seek to play the referee
