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
hey no worrys...i was emotional when i saw the clip on youtube...
Its just the thought of a young persons dreams gone just like that..
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.
I saw it on MOTD too, then those pictures and urgh. It's disgusting what happened to him, he's a really good player and it sucks that he was cut down like that.
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.
Seriously, I am really angry at Taylor, I mean this kid had so much to live for and had a whole career ahead of him and now because of this clumsy piece of crap his career is at risk.
And Gallas was affected. In the penalty he ran off the pitch crying...
Also Arsene Wenger made a new statement today saying what he said about Taylor was too harsh and he apologises.
Didn't he make that yesterday?Quote:

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.
Clumsy piece of crap? It was just a poor, mistimed tackle. :rolleyes: There has been plenty of worse tackles made without a fuss but this one was just really unlucky timing.Quote:

Its not like that it was a 1 footed tackle what went wrong, its not his fault.
He knew what he was doing trust me, he said it was accidental I believe but when he went into the tackle he knew there was a chance Of Eduardo getting injured.
The first Arsenal statement was Eduardo would never play again..
Warning: Graphial Images.

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.
A straight red is a 3 match ban...Quote:

He knew that he could have got the ball, but it was given away. That quote's just rubbish.
Brandon look at UFC fighters, some of them have broke their necks and went on to win titles and such
@DAN!
Look at this pictures, he went straight for his shin, not saying he did it on purpose though.
wrestling is fake!!!!!!!!!:eusa_wallQuote:

He's undergone surgery and is recovering.
Arsenal are releasing a statement on Monday.
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.Quote:
