A petition to ban Taylor. You have got to be kidding me. These tackles happen all the time. Arsenal players have commited worse fouls before. It's just that in this case someone ended up seriously injured. But that may have been also down to the way Eduardo fell, not just the tackle. Everyone is just heated up at the moment, and hitting out at Taylor, but I'm sure he feels damn bad right now. I'm sure he doesn't like the idea of Eduardo's career being in jeopardy either. |

No^ if you see pics of the tackle you see how he went in on him, he shouldn't be playing like that, it was horrific, shouldn't be allowed to play for at least for a while. Sooo gutted for eduardo, i feel really bad for him, specially not being able to play in the Euros when he practically got the team there. So upset :( |

I have already seen the pictures. Yes it was a bad tackle, but footballers do it all the time. If we banned everyone who did it, then we wouldn't have many footballers around. I'm not saying what he did was right, but I'm saying that petitioning for a lifetime ban is extreme. Way too extreme. And I'm sure that right now he feels gutted. He doesn't need people to have a go at him to realise the consequences of his actions today. |

Yeah I do see what you mean. I don't think he should be banned forever but he should get more of a punishment than a 3 game ban. :unsure: |

Im sure Taylor doesn't feel great breaking a fellow players leg, he'll serve his 3 match ban and come back playing that's just the way it is. |

yeah someone in Sweden said that too but then another guy said that the ref picked up the card before he knew how injured Eduardo was. And a fan suggested that Taylor should be banned until Eduardo comes back, which i thought was a pretty good idea. But i have seen worse tackles than that. It's just that this one hit very bad, one guy said that it was because eduardo had his foot on the ground he broke his leg. And i think that's true casue a lot of tackles look like that but i guess people are just quick to jump then. Eduardo just didn't want to let go of the ball. I remember the tackle Jermaine Jenas did on Gilberto in the premiere in the last season of Highbury. Now that tackle was just awful!!! Steve Bennet gave Jenas a red but then a few days later he took it back and settled with a yellow!! and i couldn't believe it. If that tackle had went really bad Gilberto would definetely have broked his leg. If Taylor laughed that's absolutely wrong, but i don't think the FA will care about if he laughed or not. The game was really heavy for Arsenal after that happened. Cesc looked terrifyed when he saw that he had broked his leg and he didn't even want to look. I think it took hard on Adebayor cause he just looked dissappointed the rest of the match and Flamini got really irritated both at B'ham and the ref. Some players had shook it of in the 2nd half though but i still think they felt pretty bad afterwards. I even think Gallas cried :sad: |

Yeah that picture where he was 'smiling' is kinda blurred, and if you look at the video reply, he was just kinda ruefully smiling at the ref because i think he knew what was coming. But yea he should def be banned more then three games. |

u echoed my thoughts. I hate Taylor for this, i really really do and if i saw h im in the street i'd probably kill him right now, but pri's right-these tackles do happen all the time. I don't think he should have a life ban, but more like 4/5 games, because now i am thinking more fairly the guilt of having broken his leg must be hard to live with. |

I think a 5 match ban would be reasonable. I am absolutely certain that Taylor didn't go into the tackle with intention to break Eduardo's leg. I am really sad for some reason, this is terrible. :sad: |

Just read this on LJ. Can't post the link because it fucked up, and the community it was posted in is under lock, but thanks to nowle and Arsenal-Mania forums.
This is apparently from the Croatian media...
Thank God! I know the sources aren't the most reliable, but it's some good news. Eduardo, get better soon, mister! |
