    It's strange that they're not showing it, don't rememebr them not showing replays before. Tackle didn't look too bad from the default camera angle IMO.

    Same here.

    Must be a really bad one not to show it.

    In real time it didn't look that bad. Just looked a miss-timed tackle that caught Eduardo. I think it might have been the boot stuck in the ground which caused his leg not to give way to the tackle.

    1-0 Birmingham.

    Great free kick, keeper probably could've done better


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,193 ✭✭✭pd101


    Almunia would've saved that had he used his other hand

    Can't see a whole lot from that angle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,227 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    Yeah, doesnt look like much. Probably a harsh sending off. Looks more accidental than anything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,227 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    McFadden is so slow its unreal. He's got the ball in about 10 yards of space a few times, but it's like he's on pause and th eArsenal players are on FF.

    One of the pics posted later in the thread (Page 2 I think) shows what looks liek the bone coming out, also makes it look like a high foot that caused the damage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,372 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    Arsenal need to get their sh*t together here. They've been terrible


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,750 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    1-1

    Walcott


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,604 ✭✭✭herbieflowers


    has the injury affected them or have they just been awful? hard to say I suppose seeing as it was so early...

    impossible to tell that really as the injury happened so early in the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,750 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    2-1

    Walcott again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,604 ✭✭✭herbieflowers


    yeah, hopefully they'll lose anyway irrespective of the injury

    edit: talk about speaking to soon...ugh...gotta admire Arsenal!

    Ugh, shouldn't have been a first goal :/ nice stuff from Walcott, lovely second goal.
    Arsenal should score a couple more

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Alfonso Alves could have quite a nice day today if he's playing consdiering Liverpools defensive crisis.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Rafa thought of that

    Reina
    Finnan-Arbeloa-Hyypia-Aurelio
    Masch--Lucas
    Gerrard
    ---Kuyt
    Babel
    Torres

    (thanks to Tusky!)
