Eduardo’s possible life threatening injury - Pictures and videos
On Sunday 23rd February 2008 Arsenal played Birmingham. The game has since been overshadowed by Eduardo’s injury. The 24 year-old was horrifically injured by the Birmingham player, Martin Taylor.
The quick feet of Eduardo caused Martin Taylor to mistime his tackle. Showing studs up Taylor slid into Eduardo’s leg. This caused him to break his leg. He was moved straight to hospital from the game. He is expected to be out for at least a season, though his ankle may never be able to support his weight well enough so his career could well be over.
Taylor was red carded for injuring Eduardo.

The television channel broadcasting the game did not show the replay of the incident due to the nature of the injury. I have searched the net and found videos and pictures of the injury. Here they are. Not for the faint hearted.

This is just to show you what actually happened if you did not see it.
Arsene Wenger has said that Taylor should be banned for life. I am interested to know what peoples’ opinions on this would be. Do you think that Taylor should have to retire from football because he may have ended the career of another.
Should the FA look at the punishment without taking into consideration the actual injury?
Should Wenger shut up and stop saying such biased things and stop being such a god damn hypocrite?
Another punishment is that he should not be allowed to play football until Eduardo recovers and plays himself. Why should Arsenal be punished more than Birmingham?
I want your views on this. Please comment using the comment form under this post.
We all give our sympathy to Eduardo and hope he will return to playing as soon as possible. Even if a rival fan, we should hope he recovers as soon as possible!
