With how little I know of football. I am sure someone is going to be offside and invalidate the entire plan.

But I like your thinking mate.

So long as they start in their own half they won't be offside

Tbh I'm not sure what rule/s this breaks, although I assume it must do

I mean... outside of breaking the basic concept of sportsmanship, apparently there are rules about keeping the ball free?

Someone else commented the rules, and I suspect English isn't their first language, so I didn't pick up an absolute answer in my lazy browsing, but they came with receipts.

Even if completely stopping the ball from moving was not a violation:

The outside circle cannot actually prevent opponents from getting to the ball, that's obstruction. You can't set a screen in football while ignoring the ball.

So you have two players forced to move in an awkward way. The defenders are just going to push them off the ball with a shoulder to shoulder push.

A shoulder to shoulder push?!

Those two players are going to be rolling in pain for hours.

Happens all the time in football.

You just gotta get the other team up there in front of you.
