It was horrible, if I did that to him I'd retire from playing football knowing what I did may force a fantastic young player who had more skill than me, retire from the game.

Yeah seriously, he is my favourite player. It was so sad to see this happened.
As soon as i heard how bad it was i just burst out into tears, don't ask me why im just really emotional. I wish him ALL the best and i hope it isn't bad enough to end his career <3

Exactly what I was thinking. He DID NOT deserve anything that happened today, and we deserved to win..
He was probably one of our only hopes of winning our AC Milan game imho.
I really hope he recovers <3
I feel so sorry for him.

Hope he recovers well.

Me being a Man U fan I feel really sorry for eduardo. He is a talented player and a incredible finisher.. It wouldnt suprise me if he did retire from this injury as I find it hard to believe he will come back as good as he was from this injury which is the sad thing.

My stomach turned when I saw the video on youtube :( Also I feel sorry for the players on both sides coz of the distress it caused. On Match of the day it showed everyones faces as treatment was being carried out.

Feel sorry for the guy who comitted the foul as well, Marting Taylor? He must be distraught over what he has done and will feel so guilty over what he has done. Watching replays I think that the tackle wasn't intentional and wasn't malicious. Like Alan Mcleish said Eduardo was too quick. Had Eduardo not flicked that ball in almost certain Taylor would have got the ball.

Nice to see Arsene Wenger release a statment on that what he said about Taylor not being allowed to play again was wrong.

Also did anyone watch match of the day and during the match analysis where they were talking about Gallas? Anyone else think what they was saying was wrong? I mean the lad had just seen his team mate and friend stretchered off with his leg snapped in half.. He would want to win the game for his friend like the rest of the team. Clearly he was distressed, Clearly he was emotional I didn't think there was any need for them to criticise his captaincy after the game like that.

Hope he recovers fully and quickly.

Sorry for massive essay just my thoughts on the incident.

Taylor should just be suspended for 3 games. It was a mis-timed tackle that ended up with someone breaking their leg.

I know it's not nice that someone has broken their leg, but I'm sure most Arsenal fans would rather him be injured than Adebayor or Fabregas.

I must admit I agree with this... Personally it was a yellow card tackle but I think the ref saw the damage and maybe sent him off for his protection so the arsenal players didnt go out to get him. My honest feeling is that it wasnt intentional

It's a normal red card not a 3 match ban.
If his leg wasn't broke you wouldn't talk about this.

People make mistakes, Taylor isn't a dirty player. Eduardo was too fast so Taylor mis-timed. We've all done it before.

That's a load of rubbish.
Taylor went in for the tackle, Eduardo made a pass and there was no way of reacting in time or stopping the follow through.
He knew that he could have got the ball, but it was given away. That quote's just rubbish.

24-02-2008, 02:55 PM
There is absolutely no doubt Taylor went in with the intent of making his presence felt. I'm certain he didn't want to seriously injure him, but to say it's because Eduardo was too fast for him is just ridiculous. Even if the ball was at Eduardo's feet when he made that challenge, his foot would have went straight over the ball. It was a disgraceful tackle, and I can't believe that from what I've read he'll only get a 3 match ban when imo he should get at least 10. I think Arseblog put it simply, with Aliadiere getting sent off yesterday for a slap and receiving the same punishment, "It’s like giving shoplifters the same jail time as rapists."

But if he stood up after and was fine there would be no fuss about it. Don't deny it, you know its right. Its only because in this case somebody was actually injured badly that its a big deal. Besides Aliadiere was sent off for a second yellow, rather than straight red. He was already on a yellow so the ref had his eye on him.

I see where you're coming from, but any challenge almost closer to the knee than the foot of the opposition player should be met with a heavy punishment, whether it injures someone severely or not, especially when it breaks someone's leg. Tackles like that need to be ruled out of the game.

If you are saying that i am afraid every player in the prem should be ruled out, becuase every1 in there time has made a mistake and tackle gone wrong!

I will say this again i said before, if it was a less rich club there would be no fuss at all.

I think if challenges like these are stamped out it will stop players going in unnecessarily hard. Taylor may have made a mistake, but it's clear that he could have gone into that tackle without his studs showing and his leg being a foot off the ground.

Not everyone has made a challenge capable of breaking another players leg, and the art of tackling will not be ruined because players will learn simply to control their challenges and not go in, like I said, unnecessarily hard and in a dangerous manner.

if there had been no broken leg obviously there wouldnt be a big fuss about it,but the fact is there is.martin taylor obviously didnt mean to hurt him i dont think but the fact is his foot was raised and it had nothing to do with eduardos pace look at the tackle his foot hits the shin if he was going for the ball his foot would of been on the ground now obviously he shouldnt be banned from football because all players make mistakes but i think a heavier punishment should be handed to him

he broke his 3 times.

Tbh i would have thought the leg break would have been against blackburn (i know them as the leg breakers)

but Taylor should have a long punishment.

Docked a match wages and donate them to charity or summing and banned for as long as Eduardo is out for (or a month)

Football needs to clamp out on these dangerous tackles

Eduardo - I am determined to overcome this injury

By Richard Clarke
Eduardo has given his account of the events at Birmingham City on Saturday.


The Croatian striker, 25 on Monday, has ruled himself out of the rest of the season and Euro 2008 in the summer after breaking his leg following a challenge from Martin Taylor. However he adds that he is 'determined to overcome this injury'.


“I don't remember the incident very well and it is not something that I want to see again on television or in the newspapers," said the summer signing from Dinamo Zagreb.


"All I remember is that when I fell, I looked down at my foot and it had turned the other way. The rest is just a blank. It was an unfortunate situation but these things can happen in football.

“I am unsure at the moment of the extent of the injury and how long I will be out of action for but I know that I won't be able to play for Arsenal for the rest of the season or be ready in time for the Euros this summer.
"But I'm not worried about that. My concentration and determination is on making as quick a recovery as possible. I am determined to overcome this injury.

“I would like to thank the medical team here at Arsenal for their efforts as well as the staff at Selly Oak hospital who carried out the operation on Saturday night. Everyone there made me feel as comfortable as possible.
"I would also like to say how touched I am by the many messages of support I have received and to be surrounded by my loved ones at this time.”

Then in English we had to write a story on "The Accident" and they wrote it on Eduardo. They'd cry if it happened to Ronaldo. I hope it happens to them, it's not nice but y'know.

Jesus christ, he shouldnt be banned for longer, he didnt jump in with studs up or w.e these stupid pundits and Arsenal fans say, he was just too quick for Taylor. He should serve the 3 match ban, and be fined a small fee, other than that, just get over it.

We have every right to be angry, because Eduardo is injured and we needed him on the field. Simple as that.

The only thing Arsene said that was out of line was that Taylor should be banned for life, which he retracted. Besides, there were no challenges from Arsenal players against United capable of causing any injury.
