Eliminating throw-ins and replacing them with kick-ins would be a "huge step back" for football, according to Liverpool's throw-in coach Thomas Gronnemark.
Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has been a huge advocate in recent years of replacing throw-ins, citing their existence as a feasible way for teams to regularly waste time.
On Monday, the latest IFAB, football's law making body, meeting took place in Qatar and the possibility of replacing throw-ins, which have been around since replacing kick-ins in 1863, was discussed. However, no formal trial to play without has been planned, despite Wenger's ongoing pressure.
