I think the fame would profit a lot more if you punished those fouls much harder No they shouldn't? Why would they? That's nonsense and against the game. You do realize that many tactical fouls are not even offenses for a YC? Are you watching the same game? :D

Chiellini knew he would be booked but didn't care. That tells me the yellow card is not enough of a punishment. Sure, the same way players foul a runaway with a tackle where they know they cannot get the ball knowing they're not last thus there won't be any red card. It's part of the game. And most notably - these yellow cards are given to defensive players. Being a defender with a YC is a big advantage

La Liga is actually hilarious to watch these days. Atletico legit are the new power house after Real Madrid and Barca fucked their finances so royally. Saul is a FANTASTIC player, but he isn't a match winner all by himself like Greizman is so that swap deal propels Atletico up while Barca lose one of their best attacking players and still need to shift the wage bill.

A change would catch the occasional egregious tactical foul sure, but no doubt you’ll see silly reds. It’s asking refs to judge intent, is there a mistimed attempt to win the ball earnestly or is it a cynical deliberate foul? And I’m worried we’d see mistakes made and games ruined with red cards for innocuous fouls that are genuine attempts to get the ball, misconstrued as cynical deliberate fouls.
It is a problem, fouls in general are a problem. They are by definition cheating after all, but there’s far less complaints about them than diving because it’s more ‘manly’ to go around kicking people.
One thing I would like to maybe see is what constitutes a clear goal scoring opportunity judged more realistically. I don’t think there’s a huge amount of difference between say, Kylian Mbappe being slid in behind the defence 20 metres from goal, or 60, if the defensive line is caught they’re not catching him. But you’ll see a red many times in the former and rarely the latter.

On the Chiellini foul: he fouled. He got a yellow card. Case closed. It always was a yellow card, not more and not less. There was no immediate danger of a goal (which could've been a red card), there was no egregious tackle - there, in fact, was no difference between this and not getting out of the way of a player who starts a counter attack, letting him run into your shoulder.
Then, horse collar tackle. Jesus christ people. It's okay if you don't understand certain sports, don't throw around terms that you clearly don't understand.
edit: linked a video here that shows what a horse collar tackle is, got blocked because NFL content. Just search youtube for horse collar tackle.
This is a horse collar tackle. Remember how Chiellini did not pull Saka down, he just held his collar? Yeah. That makes it shirt grabbing, not a horse collar tackle, because that !pulling down! is the definition of horse collar tackle. To the point where every single horse collar tackle i've ever seen had the attacking player literally hanging off the collar of the attacked player.
Then, this masterpiece here.

This is of course absolutely nonsense. Diving is cheating. As in, actual cheating, you're trying to trick the referee to gift you a goal (unless your name is Saka, Rashford or Sancho). A good example here is Sterling against Denmark. He tried and succeeded to cheat. He cheated Denmark out of the tournament.
A foul is by definition unfair, but not cheating. Hell, swearing is an actionable foul, or holding the ball longer than six seconds with your hands as the goal keeper (though rarely actioned, still a foul) - how you came to the conclusion that all fouls by definition are cheating is completely beyond me and of course objectively, factually and definitely false.
Again. Chiellini fouled. He got the correct card. Now.. Here's the thing. If Saka got hold of the ball and started running towards the goal, with Chiellini doing what experts call an "emergency brake" (pull him to prevent him to score), then that's a red card. That's not what happened here.
While a somewhat.. stupid foul, it's what it is. The only funnier thing than the memes we got out of this is that that general foul sparked petitions and screeching, while the actual fact of cheating a nation out of their final usually receives hand waving and "yeah buts".

This wasn't a tactical foul. This was an emergency break foul. Tactical foul is a break in the game - e.g. team needs to substitute, get time off from long term pressure, the opponent team is getting too much into the play and you want to break their tempo, you tall players need time to return after the corner etc. Chiellini didn't do a tactical foul, he used the emergency break because he fucked up
I mean we can talk about tactical fouls and I am up for it, but this isn't it. IMO the worst of the tactical fouls is elbowing(and you cannot prove the intent there) and fouling the enemies playmaker so their play "hurts". I remember Rooney being taken off in 44th minutes because he was kicked off the field at one of the ManU games. Recent examples can be found as well. It's the usual tactic how to make the life of great players miserable.
Also fouls are not cheating, that's just nonsense. Cheating is to score a handball gall and stay silent about it. Cheating is diving for a penalty. Cheating is pretending to be hurt to get more serious punishment for the enemy. Cheating is pretending to be fouled in general. How is foul a cheating?

Thank you! I 100% agree. Tactical fouls get yellow and that is ok, no more no less. Red for that would be absurd and destroy the sport.

Fouls are not cheating but they are unsportsmanlike.
I think football should look at other sports to see how they handle fouls and cards. In field hockey there are 3 cards: Green: player is out for 5 minutes (in a 70 minute game) Yellow: player is out for 10 minutes (used to be between 5 and 15 depending on the severity) Red is like football.
A voluntary foul is automatically yellow or red.
And I would say that despite hockey having a ton more types of fouls, intentional offenses are way less frequent than in football and so are injuries.

I am surprised so many people are defending tactical fouls. They make the game less exciting. I don't want a counter-attack to be stopped by a tactical foul, or for a team's rhythm to be disrupted by unsportsmanlike means. I dislike time-wasting for the same reason.

Having played field hockey to a not absolutely terrible level their card system seems to work very well.

Many if not most tactical fouls are not YC offenses

That is the definition of a tactical foul in my book and here...
Tactical fouling happens when a team loses the ball in the opponent's half and, before the counter-attack is even launched, commits a foul to immediately stop play.

messi signs a 5 year deal at barca. pretty ridiculous that he was offered a 5 year deal at his age but whatever. its official now that he will retire as a one club man

His image, he is, sadly, the face of La Liga. As long he sticks around they have 5 years to build up his replacements and teach him the philosophy of coaching when he goes to Miami.
