That’s the point though, I think. At the moment, particularly in big club vs small club games, the match is played almost entirely between the half way line and the defending teams penalty box, making exciting football very hard to come by.Funnily enough for a few years I played 3 aside with my mates quite regularly. We had no goalies, small goals but we *did* have an outside rule.
Some of the most fun I've had playing football.
Regarding your no offside in 5 aside games, it's a good point, but 5 aside is much smaller. Your defence and attack are much closer together. In 11 aside there is a big distance between attack and defence which will be streched further by removing offside.
I dunno man. All got trying it but don't really want it to catch on
Open that space up by almost double and players have the freedom to really do something.
To be honest, it’s really hard to tell how it goes because it’s so alien to us all. But I would love to see it tried at least.
