Most Violent Players In Premiership

[joe1912]

is it mainly Chelsea and Man Utd who have the most violent players...I was trying to think about the worst tackles and including Ballack last night I can recall Essien last season with a blatant stamp (neither of them a tackle).. then they also have Robben who has similar manoeuvres in his repertoire. Is it a training ground move, is it in the transfer policy of Hose or do are they so super charged that they lose the plot and their true nature comes through??

At Man U of course we have the now mild mannered Rooney, we have spoilt brat Ronaldo, used to have Ruud who was not shy to the odd bit of nastiness,Scoles of course and Neville.

I am not saying Everton are free of this as we had the good old Drunken Duncan Ferguson... but overall it seems to be Chelsea and Man U with the majority of them.

I am talking about pure violence with no attempt to get the ball here...

Any other culprits I have missed??

there's no such thing as a friendly but he can be added to the list...not sure why he is still getting a game as he looks pretty useless...

Every club has a joker (and i don't mean "Its a knockout"), strangely, Ben Thatcher is City's - go figure.

The longer he's out, the better. I was hoping the FA would ban him till the end of the season

[joe1912]

is there a link here some where between having several violent players and winning the league... chelsea, man U.... the old Arsenal..... perhaps we have hit on the winning formula
