I'd also suggest that all leagues have a holiday break starting two weeks before Christmas and ending sometime after January 1st but I know this have been suggested many times in the past.

You would have to have a massive restructure of football everywhere, don't forget 2 summers out of four are taken up with the World Cup and European Championships then your going to throw another tournament in so that would mean players just getting one summer of every four years. They already play to much football you'd end up driving them into the ground, performances would suffer which would in turn drive fans away because of the lack of entertainment.

Correction if it was every other year then players would never get a rest.
