Eduardo Charged !!

if eduardo was tryin to not get hurt then why did he not protest to the ref to say it wasnt a penalty easy because he is a cheat he even said to our player he was touched by boruc but tv evidence says he wasnt touched so wenger practically has no argument

 

Its went a bit far I think personally for a player too have such a horrific injury for that length of time I can understand ''if he just tried to get out of the way'' because a certain Henrik Larsson done that after his leg break for a while. Nevertheless it was a dive, didnt have any part in the outcome of the game.

 

Wenger's comments are disgraceful!!
Saying that the only reason the SFA and UEFA are charging him is because of the Scottish people in the organisations. What a *!
And the way he talked about us annoyed me.."ahh we would have beat them anyway it didnt affect the game"..it did!We were coming more and more into it when the * cost us it all. Wenger is a whinging * who only sees his team as the victims and that they are the ones who are hard done by!We are the ones out of the CL and he is still giving out. Guy is a fud.

 

And another one was he couldnt blame eduardo if he was trying to get out of the way of the keepers "challenge" after coming back from injury. Why play him then?

 

wenger did say that he believed it was still a pen! how blind is he? the refs decision still stands, the penalty still stands, the goal still stands and the result still stands. however, eduardo clearly dived, yet wenger agrees with his striker. poor show imo

 

why did he turn towards the camara and smile if he new it wasnt a pen. he was also saying something about how eduardo went down cause he has just come back from a bad injury: so *. if hes not ready to be plyn he shouldnt be instead arsenal are wanting special treatment cause a guy broke his leg.

 

have to disagree if thats the case eduardo still knew it wasnt a penalty and should have protested to the ref that it wasnt a pen our players even approached him and from watching the game he kept telling our players he was touched and he wasnt

 

It doesn't matter if he done it against us or if it was against someone else, he dived to get a penalty which is cheating!! I don't get this opening a can of worms thing and that every decision by the referee can be questioned. If a player cheats or does something wrong that is not spotted by the referee during the game then uefa have the right to deal with the matter. So players can continue to get away with cheating as long as the ref doesn't see it??

The refs have a hard enough job as it is without the players making it harder. Uefa have done the right thing in singleing him out as the only way players will stop diving is if they know they will not get away with it. They should make an example of him and hopefully other players will stop doing it.

 

would you not be bitter when a guy CHEATS then stands up and smiles about it.

 

What he done is trust his player, if you can't trust his your own player then they may as well leave. Eduardo said he got clipped and so lost his balance. Wenger has 2 choices believe him and get on with it the one he choose, or tell eduardo that he doesn't trust him and don't play the guy. What one would you go for if it was say mcgeady?

 

Yes i would, but bitterness can give you tunnel vision (trust me i know) where you just think the most severe punishment possible is justifiable.

 

yeh well he can trust his player but by now wenger has seen the video and probs now knows that it wasnt a penalty a good manager would fine his player for lying to him the fact that wenger is backing him is bad for football if a manager is goin to back a player for cheating it is only goin to make it harder for uefa to stamp out diving and cheating

have to say if walter smith was manager he would have said it was a dive and fined the wee * himself

 

in the rules it says its a 2 match ban. I think he should get a 1 game ban and a big fine for cheating or do you without tunnel vision not think it was cheating

 

i beleive two match ban is justifiable considering he still protested his innocence through out the whole game even though he knew he was wrong

 

In that case about 80% of footballers should recieve a ban, almost all of them try a little dive to gain a free-kick, so the situation doesn't matter, a dive is a dive, he cheated he gets banned. I agree that they should get punished, but uefa need to be consistent, and they shouldn't just do it out of nowhere, if say they announced that they had the intention to ban any player who dives from here on in, i would have said fair enough, he gets the punishment.

 

i think if boruc was sent off it could have been far worse

 

Hopefully this is the start of a campaign to cut this diving * out...it is ruining the game and even youngsters are starting to do it at underage level.

Diving = cheating = taking drugs in sport = ruining the game.

As i said i hope all diving incidents are now reported to UEFA.

 

wenger is going to defend his player . yes ok but he is just effectively ruling out all these rants he gose on after everymatch where a decision gose against him . remember taylor with his honest tackle against eduardo wich went wrong . he was calling for the guys head before he even looked at the incident .

So for him to come out and say that people are going overboard is idiotic when the guy was clearly cheating . we had so many thousand celtic fans going down there to london 8 hour trip for most and the game is taken away from us by that wee * in a matter of seconds .


that combined with the manner in wich the first 2 goals went in it's just a little bit frustrateing

 

action had to be taken sometime so arsenal cant complain just because its happening now should have been happening before the final of seville

 

The big question which will be continually asked is what is a dive. Going down without contact obviously. But what about when players go down with minimum contact.
