Everton V Man City

Just watched some highlights on you tube, when Everton kick off they only have one guy in the centre circle & he passes the ball backwards. Am I missing something here, have the changed the rules ? Had to watch it 3 times to make sure somebody wasn't hiding

Changed at the start of the season.

Thanks first Premier game i've seen this season & hadn't heard of rule change. Why can't they just leave the game alone ffs. After 100+ years you can now kick it backwards :-(

Best rule change they've made in a long time, made no sense to have to pass forwards as every team just knock it forwards half an inch and pass it backwards 99.9% of the time. You obviously haven't watched any football since July 1st as that's when the rule came into effect everywhere, first started in the Euro's in the summer

This is all that matters from the game... £10million potentially a brilliant buy...
