This shirt pulling (and grappling) in the box needs to be sorted out. Certainly it should stop. Certainly it needs to be punished but If you did that then there would be 3 or 4 penalties (minimum) per game? Maybe not the way to go but what if the punishment was a 15 minute sin bin with the corner/free kick taken again? As with all new rules there would be a flurry of sin bins initially. "Pundits" would discuss it for hours but after a while things would settle down. The game would go on and hopefully more attackers would score more goals, which after all is what we pay to see. As with all fair play initiatives it can only come in at, at least, Eufa level to make it even for all defenders home and abroad.

even if more penalties were given initially players would soon learn not to do it and it would settle down but the game would become fairer and like you say definitely more goals from set pieces. It has to be in all leagues otherwise in Europe British teams would be at a severe disadvantage.
