My vote goes to Ryan Shawcross
Just watched him push a guy from behind and try and kick him in the head from behind and then 30 secs later wrestle a player to the ground on a corner. Got a yellow for that one.
Since I don't watch him much, I forgot how dirty he is
Any others?

Michael Brown's still mugging people at Port Vale i think.
Ivanovic is one of the tops for me
I've heard Snodgrass mentioned before but I haven't watched him much
Anyone playing for Mick McCarthy 063.gif
Is El Hadji Diouf still about?
not in england, but pyuol at barca could have been sent off at every corner they ever defended
I'm with you on Shawcross. Detest that player. I think he rather enjoys roughing up opponents when straight defending, which he's capable of doing, will suffice. No place for that behavior.
That Morrison who played for Man City comes to mind but I expect he's retired now.
It has to be shawcross, he's a thug.
Players like cattermole end up with a poorer card record but that's because he loses his head to often. With shawcross its a consistant style of cheating. Im with fulhamforever, I detest him.
I used to think it was pulis that was behind it but it appears to just be the way he is.
Michael brown is up there for all time worst, he's Fulham's worst ever captain based on how he
played the game. I'm ashamed he played for us.
Kevin davies was bad too, basiscally anyone who played for Bolton in the noughties and anyone for stoke since with every Mick McCarthy team included.
Karl henry! Michael ball for man city, that elbow on mendes! There's so many
Billy Bremner had a lot to answer for
Karl Henry is another nasty one. Kevin Muscat from a few years ago was disgusting.
But Shawcross is a true thug, in fact most of the Stoke players are that way. God, I hate Stoke so much.
Michael Browns headbutt in Alonso was one of the most embarrassing things I have witnessed at Craven Cottage. Karl Henry is also a despicable player.
Agree with Shawcross. He's been a thug in the Prem and robbing a livign all his career. Got found out massively in his cameo for England. That N'Zonzi's a coward as well, the one who hit Ruiz I believe? Both scum.

Don't forget Charlie Adam as well... typical Stoke. Robert Huth's no angel either!
Having said that, the Stoke fans were brill last year when we visited.
For maliciousness, I could go for Shawcross, Nzonzi or Adam. But for getting away with continuous fouling in every PL game I've seen him in, I'd have to go for Liverpool's Martin Skyrtel.
I just cannot believe he has gotten away with it for so long.
On the BBC tonight they are talking up Shawcross for England fp.gif

Yep, as long as he's still suiting up anywhere, he's #1. What an embarrassment to Fulham's history was his time here.
World-wide: Daniel DiRossi is absolute garbage thuggery embodied.

I was gob smacked by the stoke fans reaction. They even stayed after the game to clap us off on the coaches, very strange feeling because I hate them but in that moment I couldn't.
They are still probably the club I dislike the most without needing to, by that I mean a rival or real reason but in that moment they were incredible.
..........still cant stand them though!!
Ben Thatcher and Kevin Muscat.

:plus one:
Fernandinho can dish it out too. Amazed he stayed on the pitch during the WC. He really did a job on Rodriguez.(Brazil v Columbia)
"Huh, they're just a bunch of ballerinas." - Claudio Gentile
Kevin Nolan has been at it for years and is right up there.
Has to be Muscat.
Because football doesn't exist outside the Premier League, it's a bit difficult to find comparative yellow card figures.
Kevin Muscat is coaching in Oz at present (exactly what he is coaching I dread to think) - he gathered 132 yellow cards (+12 reds), but our Michael Brown is still going strong on 137 (+7 reds). This may be fewer than he deserves judging from Neville's remark (he was no shrinking violet himself) the last time I saw Brown on TV, "That's his thirty-seventh foul and he's only just got booked."
Muscat looked more frightening, though.
Our own St. Scotty is quite high up the PL list with 92 and a few more added so far this season.

Chet Tiote, David Luiz; Muscat was the worst, but Shawcross deserves a current dishonourable mention.

I was impressed with them - chatting with some before the game in a pub next to the ground - and their standing ovation to us fans at the end.
Bit different to my recent away visit to Brum -drinking in a pub near the ground I sensed it was better to keep my mouth shut, and one of them tried to have a go at me outside after the game.

Amor isn't dirty just enthusiastic and committed.
I remember the days of Norman 'bite yer legs' Hunter, and Ron 'Chopper' Harris, and Peter Storey of Arsenal double winners who ended up plying his trade with Fulham. Prior to him we had Bobby Keetch, who could put in some 'tasty' tackles.
In those days every team needed its enforcer, but today most of them would be sent off after five minutes if they played like they did.
It's probably better that the game has been cleaned up, but has it gone too far the other way?
I'd love to be able to see one of today's posing jesters, somebody mentioned Suarez earlier, against one of the 'enforcers' of yesterday. Bobby Keetch would have read his fortune for him quite nicely. There's a superb clip on Youtube, Fulham v Manchester United 1964 I think, where Keetch demonstrates how to discourage an opponent with two monumental tackles on David Sadler (an England international cetr-half himself, but often played at centre-forward) in the first couple of minutes - Sadler shows no interest for the rest of the game.
Gentile was a vicious, thuggish, cynical bastard of a player, but Suarez wouldn't last twenty minutes against him. He'd be off in tears or possibly dead (you wouldn't bite Gentile and live - he was probably toxic anyway.)
Agree about Nolan.
Skirtell needs a mention, he turns every corner into a wrestling match.
One from our past was Paul Went, good centre half, but new how to dish it out.
