Given the likelihood that this season is soon going to grind to a halt, what will be the best way to get things back in line for next season?
The most obvious first step would be to cancel the Euros to allow domestic seasons to be extended, but what then?
Two ideas I heard this evening are:
1) resume this season in August, then once complete go into next season splitting each division into two 10 or 12 team mini-leagues with playoffs between the top and bottom sides to determine Europe, promotion and relegation;
2) with the world cup already planned for winter 2022, then why not move the Euros to winter 2021, which would leave plenty of time between the resumption of this season and October/November 2021, to get this season done and complete another full one. The following season could then run for the 2021 calender year up to the world cup, with the one after that to get back to the normal routine.
