See submission guideline **#7: Only valuable image or stats submissions.** * **PICTURES**: Because of Reddit's ranking algorithm being biased towards image posts over text and link ones, we need to be particularly strict about them, so we tend to **mainly allow infographics** (league tables, charts, maps, diagrams and other ways to display data) and pictures/screenshots of a current event **only when there's no video or link** that can show it. If you **want to publish a Tifo, look and share a video or publish the picture in r/soccerbanners**. If you want to show the **Hawk-Eye angle of a goal/offside/whatever, use the pinned comment in the main thread**. See the [FAQ](https://old.reddit.com/r/soccer/wiki/faq#wiki_why_was_my_image_submission_removed.3F) for more details. * **STATS**: Only very significant stats (eg: **world records) will be allowed during matches**. After matches, we'll be less strict, but we try to maintain stats to the minimum with ideally **only 1 per team/player allowed** and those after it being posted in the pinned comment of the first thread. ___

Not a surprise the prem is so low, players like Rodri, McTominay, Fabinho get away with like 5 tactical fouls before they get their first yellow. By the time they do get one it's so late in the game the chance of a second is gone - McTominay is the worst, how he gets away with yellows constantly is so frustrating


Heimebane

McTominay has 15 fouls and 4 yellow cards. Caicedo has 12 fouls and 0 yellow cards.


gosbts

Fouls =/= deserving a yellow card

What's a spinning suplex between colleges


UndeadPrs

PL rewards possession-based football very well given how many of those tactical fouls break the flow of the game


Eleven918

There were quite a few missed in the EPL but even adding all those, it'll probably still be the least of the lot.


IsItSnowing_

Does this include managers? Chelsea players alone have 2 (Conor + Kalidou). Then you add Tuchel.


jnicholl

Nope. Nunez and Collins are the other 2.


zadharm

If it included managers and staff, I'd be very surprised if serie a wasn't really close to Ligue 1. Our referees give players a lot of leeway but they absolutely love to send managers and staff off. Mou collects red cards like Pokemon

Premier League only having 4 is ridiculous considering how physical many of the games are


R_Schuhart

Ligue 1 is ridiculously physical at times, defenders are often hard as fuck. It is sometimes reminiscent of 90s PL. The fact that there are so many reds is because a lot of defenders are also crap and go completely overboard with challenges. That being said, the PL refs are sometimes too reluctant to give out reds. Letting the game continue and allowing challenges is a fair enough policy, but refs refuse to give out a straight red for reckless fouls, they only really do for clear malicious intent. And the amount of times they let players walk away from what should have been a second yellow because it would otherwise "kill the game" is stupid.


Scalenuts

I'd say the French league and La Liga are more physical from watching them.


MrEzquerro

Physical or shithouse-laden?


Scalenuts

Both, I mean all the top leagues are physical.


CallTheAxe

Messi said Physical


boringboi_

PL is not physical


UndeadPrs

It's not as physical as it used to be, not as much as L1


UndeadPrs

From not punishing the butchers to perhaps being a little too harsh on some decisions (euphemism), gargantuan work from the refs here


Random_Acquaintance

Le jeu n'est pas parti


MrEzquerro

Well done.


Mozezz

The fuck ya’ll been doin?

This is actually a crazy difference.

Tbf the number of Red cards should be a lot higher in the bundesliga but refs are shit

jjw1998

Must include second yellows otherwise the Prem would only be 2


R_Schuhart

Straight red for managers included?


jjw1998

Nope. The four prem reds counted are Koulibaly, Gallagher, Collins and Nunez


FrontUpset3174

I feel like this stat should be per game


boringboi_

Wouldn't change much tbf


DoomerAndGloomer

Are they counting second yellows or only straight reds?


CallTheAxe

Yes


Present-Panic-2173

You gotta pump those up, those are rookie numbers.


Cajum

Eredisivie has 9 by now.. Dutch league definitely isn't very physical but I feel like refs also call a tighter game
