#1 Sergio Ramos
The Spanish and Real Madrid captain is a player that needs no introduction. Ever since he was signed by Madrid 14 years ago, Ramos has been an overly aggressive defender. He is the ultimate benchmark of dark arts in football. Ramos has made nasty and career threatening tackles on opponents. Also, he has gotten into more physical confrontations than any other player.
As a result, he is on top of the chain when it comes to the most sent off players in history. Ramos does not spare anyone. In 2010, he was sent off after a nasty foul on Messi. Did he leave quietly? No. He took a piece of national team centre back partner Carlos Puyol's neck, alongside Xavi's, who was also his teammate for Spain.
Ramos has received more cards (be it yellow or red) than any other player. His total of 274 beats everyone in the history of Champions League, LaLiga, and the Spanish national team.
