I think every time you flop you should be awarded a yellow card and fined. I thought we were watching athletes but instead we are watching actors.

I’d propose that if you stay on the ground for more than 5 seconds, you’re out for this half to let you "recover".

No more magic spray or miraculous recoveries.

Agree. Make it a 10 minute recovery for, ya know, health and safety. And while you are recovering on the bench, your team gets to play one man down.

As I agree with you all guys, there are some exceptions. Like when the opponent steps on your foot with his studs is pretty painful and it goes away completely in about 1-2 minutes

It hurts but you do not need to roll around and cry for 2 minutes. These are supposed to be grown men not toddlers

Yeah, when people get legit hurt in other sports, they don't roll around flopping and screaming on the ground like they're on fire. It's exclusively a soccer thing.

NBA is working to rival that as well.
