Here’s website visitor Leonid with an article on the dirtiest players in the premier league as judged by their disciplinary points
The dirtiest players in the premier league
Some people are fascinated by the dirtiest players in the Premier League. It’s easy to write compelling articles about them. Some people will see these players as terrible villains that are spoiling everything.
Others will be so thoroughly entertained by them that they won’t really care about what they do, the way a lot of people like to watch the fights that break out in hockey games or the various car crashes that happen during racing events. One way or another, there is no shortage of dirty players in the Premier League.
Ryan Shawcross
Ryan Shawcross is one of them. His disciplinary points have totalled 244, which is fairly impressive in its own way. This equates to 1.56 disciplinary points for every single game. A lot of people would be shocked by the idea that this is even possible. However, Ryan Shawcross is not even the dirtiest player people could mention. There are plenty of dirty players in the Premier League that outrank him in this way, even if he outranks them in some other ways
Pablo Zabaleta
Pablo Zabaleta is easily a dirtier player than Ryan Shawcross. His disciplinary points per game have totalled 2.13. This does not seem like all that much more than the total of disciplinary points generated by Ryan Shawcross. However, the fact that Pablo Zabaleta has managed to earn a total of 261 disciplinary points in his career is still impressive.
The fact that he has played a lot of games can make that statistic look less impressive, and this is the case with Ryan Shawcross and a lot of the other dirty players. Still, in a way, that should make everything even worse. After all, these players have competed in multiple games. After all of this time, they are still getting disciplinary points right and left, demonstrating that they have not learned anything in spite of all of their experience in the Premier League.
Claudio Yacob
Claudio Yacob has actually earned the same number of total disciplinary points that Pablo Zabaleta earned at 261. Some people might wonder if the two of them are going to start competing over that, since one of them will have to win in this dubious contest. They cannot stay tied forever. Claudio Yacob has only played in 104 games. He has managed to earn 2.50 disciplinary points per game, which is impressive.
