Eduardo

[loadsoftrophies]

Fucking hell it's bad, Taylor got a straight red card and broke something on him.

Sly won't show the replays again the tackle was so bad.

[Stephen Adams.]

Taylor just went in to tackle Eduardo.

Taylor's been sent off, Eduardo is lying in a crumpled heap, apparently with a broken leg.

The Arsenal players all look sick and Sky aren't showing a replay of it because apparently it's too grim.

[StevieH]

Did you see the tackle?

[Thants]

5live initial thought was it just a late tackle but they cant see replays either. Sounds fuckin horrible.

[Hazel Motes]

In fairness to Taylor it wasn't exactly a horror challenge, just an unfortunate late tackle.

[TommyW]

just rewound it on sky+, from the angle we had it didnt look like a horror tackle, just a fraction late

 

hope its not too serious

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Was doing something and had the game on, so didn't see the incident live.

 

Have a V+ box and rewinded to see it. Camera was miles away, but you can see that his leg went the other way. :(

[Strontium]

I'm thinking we should be seeing season-long bans for this sort of thing, or even longer.

 

It seems ludicrous you can get longer for doing a couple of lines of coke of a stripper's tits than you can for snapping someone's leg in half.

Didn't take much notice a the tackle but he got a straight red. Sly won't show it again so we'll probably have to wait until the back pages of some scummy paper to see the damage. A lot of the Arsenal players who ran over to check on him all turned away with sick faces.

[Stephen Adams.]

In fairness to Taylor it wasn't exactly a horror challenge, just an unfortunate late tackle.

 

I thought that too, but without the benefit of any replays it's hard to know.

He must've gone in with both feet.

He didn't argue when the ref pulled the red card out.

[Rex Banner]

Sounds nasty, but I don't think I'm the only one who's wishing they'd show the replays. It's wrong, but I'm nosy.

 

Maybe it'll be on after the watershed.

 

Hell yeah I wanted to see it, now I have no idea what happened, couldn't they just say look away now if you don't want to see it?

They showed Alan Smith and Cisse over and over to name a couple, did his foot come off or something?

[twelvesmallsteps]

they showed it once on canal+. didn't look horrible, but the camera was pretty far away. right after the tackle eduardo just sat there holding his leg, maybe he passed out at the sight or something? seems like a bad injury though.

[Dirk]

I merged both threads if you are wondering where the other one went.

[Stephen Adams.]

Sounds nasty, but I don't think I'm the only one who's wishing they'd show the replays. It's wrong, but I'm nosy.

I just want to see the replay to see if it was a red card or not.

On a separate note, Adebayor looks cool as fuck with his new hair cut!

[loadsoftrophies]

Just showed a closeup of the Arsenal physio who's back on the bench and he looks like he wants to be sick. Head in hands.

[memyselfandpie]

I havent seen it, but from what's been said, and the sky reaction, (No replays) it sounds like a compound fracture. It's understandable that they dont want to show that on a Saturday afternoon.

[Unrighteous]

Oh jesus... Sounds horrible.

[Guest TK-421]

Sounds awful, hope he's alright and it's not career ending.

[coop]

I bet you Wenger saw it.

Ouch. Dont look if you're a little squeemish. Its half off. Poor fucker.

[Guest TK-421]

Holy shit.

[Baresi]

That's horrific.

[The Chief]

Don't know why RR, but that made me laugh like fuck.

Bollocks my computers knackered, every time I'm typing something the keyboard just stops typing and I have to click the mouse to make the irritating twat work again.

[LiverpoolFreak]

Damn!

[Unrighteous]

Oh. My. God. The placement of the break... that could easily be career ending. Horrible, horrible fucking tackle.
