What about Lazio? They are playing some brutal, tough men football from the 80s, but it works so far.
They have the most yellows in the league (66), second most red cards (5). They don't make a lot of fouls, but the ones they make are so hard that the refs don't have another choice but to card them. Our former boy Rovella is the record holder.

As a comparison, Lazio are carded for every 4.3 fouls, while their rivals for top 4 have this: Bologna 1 card for 9.8 fouls, Napoli 1 card for 8.8 fouls, Inter 1 card for 8.5 fouls, Juventus 1 card for 8.1 fouls, Atalanta 1 in 6.2, and so on.
toughness is one thing, they play quick, modern football with plenty of pressing and directness towards goal. i think that contributes more to their success than brutality. either way, it's a very well trained team, baroni is doing an excellent job. trainer of the season so far from me, alongside ranieri

Ranieri's grandfather is just doing what he always did best.

Take a team that is in crisis and save it

they had some good results lately, but they were in a relegation battle a few weeks ago, and they spent ~50m during january, only comparable to milan. they are expected to perform better than cagliari, venezia, hellas or lecce, who have much weaker squads. good job by fabregas, but even better by ranieri and baroni

They have a lot of young players.

Roma and Lazio are historically bigger clubs than them

look at inzaghi, arguing against a yellow for leaving his technical zone, and still staying on the pitch while protesting. they totally feel untouchable, and i don't blame them, the league fully enabled this

He doesnt look like arguing.. He does look like he doesnt give a crap about the ref`s yellow or the ref`s decision though..
