It would wreck the explosiveness of the game and it would turn into a stupid long ball contest. You'd get a forward or two camping out by the goal, which would then pull two defenders to the goal. That would happen on both sides and you'd get this massive emptied out field in between in which the need for speed and explosiveness in attack would be mitigated.
The only people in the world that think this particular aspect of the game needs changed are Americans that aren't regular viewers of the game.
