The changes of Arsene Wenger: World Cups more often and ban headers?

Arsene Wenger is one of the fundamental pieces of the International Football Association Board to review the soccer regulations. The former coach of Arsenal works at various revolutionary modifications that significantly affect the sport as it is known today. In this sense, the sports leader made proposals on the calendar of the world and the headshots in the game.

Regarding the aerial game, the former Arsenal manager generated a lot of controversy for his proposal to reduce it to the minimum possible. “At FIFA, we are very attentive to the head game (and the microtrauma it can cause). We are working in the shadows on certain brain traumas, “Wenger confessed to The Parisian.

“Today I tell myself that after having trained players for many years, I have hurt them in training. When I think about all the head play sessions implemented… it seems relevant today to take action, “added former coach. For this reason, the IFAB analyzes to end with headbutts in football.

“We must gradually limit the time spent on head play in training. And ban it among the young. In adults, I don’t know … But you have to be very, very attentive to the consequences of the head on trauma. We will have to think of clear rules about the supervision of the head game, ”Wenger said.

World Cup every two years?

On the other hand, Arsene Wenger spoke of the need to play more often world and Euro Cups. The reason behind the proposal would be that this would reduce “the number of matches played per year and the health risks.” “We have to reorganize all this, regroup the international dates. One of the solutions is probably to organize the World Cup and the Euro every two years and stop everything else. Contrary to what some say, it will not harm the prestige of these competitions, “he concluded.
