For the last five seasons of Premier League football, Liverpool have committed the highest number of fouls of any team before they are shown a card.

In fact, the Reds receive a caution on average for every 7.72 fouls they make, with Jurgen Klopp's men earning 10 fewer cards per season than any other team in the top flight - at the other end of the spectrum are West Ham who see a card handed out for every 5.48 fouls, reports the Liverpool Echo.

Interestingly though, the Premier League champions actually commit the fewest fouls per season when compared to any other team in the top flight.

On average over the last five years, Liverpool have committed 367.6 fouls per season and, while Manchester City come in close second, at the polar opposite end of that table is Manchester United.

The Old Trafford club committed the most fouls per season compared to any other side in the division at 445.8 per season on average over the last five campaigns.
