Hello,
my name is Ibrahim, I'm 42 year old and a fanatic soccerwatcher.
I hardly ever miss a game and I wake up and watch a match even when it is 3 in the morning.
There is just one comment I wanted to make.
It's about the backpass from a defence player to the keeper.
I thought it was a great improvement when it was decided that a backpass by foot wasn't allowed anymore from a player to the keeper of his team. There is just one more thing I wanted to suggest.
Why don't you make the backpass completely illegal? It would make the game far more interesting and exciting that way. I mean they can always throw the ball to a corner, right?
What do you think of my suggestion, is it possible, maybe in the future?
Thank you for reading my mail,
I would be very pleased if you would mail me back and answer my question.
Yours sincerely,
Ibrahim Yildiz,
from the Netherlands.
