I disagree that Sol should have been received a red card. Coz he didn't deny a goal scoring opportunity. The ball was behind the breda that was offside.

lol i find it funny that Sol's tackle is the one people question. Especially considering Boateng pushed his fingers into Bendtners eye for no reason plus nearly took of Sagna leg. Phil Brown described Boatengs tackle as fine and he "didnt let me down". So this is what Brown sent Boateng out to do.

Glad that crap manager got sacked.

He's not talking down on small teams when he says in his opinion the Carling Cup winner should get a Euro place(not like a small team wins it anyway). Wenger is ussually very complimentary of other teams. Except a few like Stoke, Bolton, Hull. And thats because those teams injure his players regularly lol

That's not actually true. Stoke have committed fewer fouls on Arsenal than any other team this season according to Opta Stats and have only received one yellow card in their last four matches. Considering Ric is in the team, that's good going \:\)

You also said "shawcross lunged in, with both feet of the ground, swung wildly and went 5 inches over the ball into the middle of ramseys leg."

Serious question, but have you actually seen the tackle by Shawcross?

http://de.acidcow.com/pics/20100301/aron_ramseys_horror_leg_break_01.jpg

later ill go about finding the picture b4 that that shows shawcross with both feet of the ground smacking the middle of ramsey's tibula+fibula. (that jus shows him landing after the contact) But i got two exams today so thats priority right now lol

Whats not exactly true that what? That Stoke players injure Arsenal player regularly? Thats pretty true. I know the opta stats. Now lets look at the injury stats. 3 games vs stoke this year and Ramsey,Eboue,Gallas, Rosicky got injured. And i think im missing 2 more.

Both of Shawcross's feet are clearly on the ground and his studs are down. He catches him just above the foot because Ramsey was quicker than him to the ball. Happens all the time, for example when Diaby broke Nasri's leg in pre-season training.

I don't recall all those players going off against Stoke. You'll have to enlighten me.

PS Good luck with the exams

Thanks for the well wishes, they went well(missed chelsea inter cuz of them though:( )

To be honest thought, if both shawcross feet were off the ground no leg could of been broken. Studs were never shown definately. But he did hav both legs off the ground (granted the right one was barely off the ground).
back to my last point though..did you see Boatengs "tackle" vs sagna in the above pic? Brown described it as a fair tackle that "didn't let me down"....those are the things Wenger gets upset about.

Eboue,Gallas,Rosicky got injured in the 2-0 win at Emirates. Rosicky came off at half time. Eboue came off in the 54th. Gallas got injured after all the subs were made so completed the game.

I also feel like Chelsea have scored all their goals this weekend and come tuesday will flop against milan.

In the premier league I think they are going to draw with Portsmouth and Villa. Then the crucial game between ManU and them. Then they will try to get the FA cup after losing out in the Champions League. B the time they get to the Liverpool and wigan game players minds will be on the World Cup so Wigan will beat them again and Liverpool will be fighting for that fourth spot.

I'm sure he does mate. But he doesn't get upset at all when his own players do them, which is what annoys everybody. He needs to either limit his comments when it's other players or criticise his own players more in my opinion. Then people would see him as more reasonable.

As for the injuries, we at Stoke can add Robin van Persie being red carded last season for attacking Thomas Sorensen, Fabregas's malicious hack at Dany Pugh at the home league game this season, Abdo Faye going off injured this season in the FA Cup, Mama Sidibe going off injured in the game at the Emirates. It's all just football - it happens.

It's also worth pointing out that there were no yellow cards at all in the games at the Emirates or the FA Cup game, so they were hardly the hack fest that you had against Hull. I think Stoke get unfairly criticised and I think Wenger has been way over the top in his criticism of Ryan Shawcross.

Sorry, also wanted to add that it's perfectly easy for legs to get broken without feet and studs being raised - see Diaby breaking Nasri's leg in training, Alan Smith gettting his leg broken by the ball blocking a free kick, David Busst's famous leg break. At Stoke we had Rory Delap break his leg in his home debut in a similar way to Ramsey in a challenge that was perfectly normal. We didn't make a fuss because we accepted it was just one of those things.

Fabregas hack on Pugh was a responce to *insert name of the guy on the right at the time) doing the exact same thing to him. You give what you get.
I CANNOT agree with you saying Wenger went over the top with Shawcross after though. All Wenger said was that it was a dangerous lounge( as it clearly was).
He also said "save me the articles about shawcross being a nice lad" (cause no1 cares, it doesnt change anything how nice he is).
He didnt even speak about suspending him or nething. I thought Wenger handled it brilliantly considering how he handled Taylor breaking Eduardo leg when he said Taylor shud be banned for months ( he retracted this statement 24 hours later). So ye i cant agree with that.

your a stoke fan? and none of those leg breaks include a wild man jumping into a leg like smith,shawcross,taylor did with the diaby,ramsey,eduardo leg breaks

I don't recall anybody fouling Fabregas at all. Even if that happened there was no justification for his loss of control. Of course I disagree that Shawcross 'jumped in like a wild man', because I think he was going for the ball. Judging challenges on injuries can be misleading - Sol Campbell was trying to play the ball when he put Kamil Zayatte out for the season last week. What about when Eboue broke John Terry's foot last season?

I know we're not going to agree but the Shawcross incident was certainly less of a deliberate attempt to hurt an opponent than Gallas's shocking attempt on Mark Davies which Wenger said was a lot of fuss about nothing. I'm not having a go at Gallas in particular because players lose it sometimes and it happens, I just think Wenger should remember it before he goes labelling other players. If for no other reason than sometime soon an Arsenal player is going to lose it and hurt an opponent again and Wenger will get it back with both barrels.

Mate

If you look back a few posts, you will see my comments that we all like to see our own teams and players with 'rose-tinted glasses'.

Most of the Arsenal indescretions, particularly Sol's tackle Zayette has been dealt with here already.

You're not going to convince these die-hard Arsenalists that the sun doesn't shine out of Arsene Wenger's arse or his players aren't little saints with halos over their heads ready to walk through them 'pearly gates'.

I'd still rather see them win the EPL this year over the other two but that doesn't happen without leaving some bodies lieing in their wake, just like any other EPL champion.

Sol wasnt trying to play the ball. He did play the ball. Zayatte kicked him, theres NO comparions lol. Zayatte out for the season? didnt know that. Unfortunate.

Cesc was hacked less than 15 seconds before he tackled pugh. Prolly in h yesis justification is stoke are dirty and injure his teammates. Who knows. i did love seeing pulis jump up and cesc tell him to shut up though

Gallas should of been suspended. no ifs and our buts about it.

and no Ric, your wrong. Atleast in my case. I will glady hold my hand up and admit when my players step out of line.

Obviously not, because Fabregas simply wasn't fouled. And this picture ofShawcross jumping in with both feet on Ramsey's leg doesn't exist either. The fact is that Stoke are no dirtier than any other team. We're no angels but we still have a far better disciplinary record than Arsenal over the years.

I know we're not going to agree but thought you'd at least try to stick to the facts. Anyway good luck with the results of the exams.

Henry hits out at Gunners
Wolves skipper labels red card a disgrace

Last updated: 4th April 2010 Subscribe to RSS Feed
Henry hits out at Gunners



Wolves captain Karl Henry has accused Arsenal players of 'going down like a sack of spuds' following his red card at the Emirates on Saturday.

In an outspoken outburst Henry has labelled his dismissal for a heavy challenge on Tomas Rosicky in the 1-0 defeat a 'disgrace', while being of the opinion Arsenal players constantly moan about hard challenges.

Arsenal, who travel to Barcelona next week for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final, had made seven changes to the starting XI, but still dominated.

Wolves' job was made even harder after 65 minutes when referee Andre Marriner produced a red card after Henry had gone through the back of Rosicky.

Following the late tackle, the Arsenal players surrounded Marriner, calling for stern action to be taken.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger feels given the recent history of serious injury to players like Eduardo and Aaron Ramsey, who suffered a double leg break at Stoke in February, the reaction of his team was perhaps understandable.

However, Henry - now set to serve a ban as Wolves battle to stay in the top flight, unless the club are successful in an appeal to the Football Association - was left less than impressed by the whole incident.

"I thought they were lucky getting a goal and lucky the referee sent me off, which was an absolute joke," Henry declared.

"I have gone in to win it, Rosicky has gone across me to shield the ball. By that time, I have already gone to ground.

"One of their players has come in, (Thomas) Vermaelen flying in and whoever else, trying to get me sent off.

"I certainly wouldn't be running over, trying to get a player sent off.

"I have seen it again and I have nicked the ball. It was never a red card, it is an absolute disgrace."
Unsporting

Rosicky went off for treatment to the back of his calf, which did have stud marks, but was soon able to continue.

"He is up and running around two minutes later, absolutely fine," the 27-year-old Wolves midfielder said.

"That is what they do here, I don't think it's pretty.

"Their players moan when they get tackled when they get hit hard and so does Arsene Wenger.

"Here in particular, Arsenal moan a lot, their players go down like a sack of spuds.

"They get hit hard like any other clubs do and we are hearing about it for weeks and weeks.

"They play good football here, and are a great side, but it is not nice to see.

"We love Arsenal's great football, but when they are rolling around getting people sent off, it makes you not want to see them do so well."
