* One team is "above" the other. This implies ranking between the teams. Who decides who's on top of the other? Imho a bad idea.
* The clock is unnecessarily bloated. I find the added visual markers distracting. The stoppage time is misleading, because additional play time is not a stopwatch or a timer. It is merely a suggestion and while most judges adhere to it, there are some games where additional play time is exceeded. It's not strict as a stopwatch implies.
* Ball possession: While being an interesting statistics, they are usually shown only once during an entire game. This kind of stuff is now easily retrievable during the game on a tablet or smartphone ("second screen"). Some people find the statistics completely unnecessary, because the only relevant statistic is goals, which is always shown anyways. I also don't see how extensive animation in the interface is not distracting.
* Formation screen: Just a different flavor. Nothing worse or better than the current one.
To summarize: Well, it's a suggestion, but I can't see that this is BETTER than the current layout, which the final paragraph implies about this design.
