Arsenal striker Eduardo da Silva broke his left leg in the 2-2
Premier League draw with Birmingham City on Saturday, bringing a
furious reaction from his coach Arsene Wenger.
The match was stopped for nearly 10 minutes as the Brazilian-born
Croatia international was treated on the field before being carried off
on a stretcher.
Birmingham defender Martin Taylor was given a straight red card for his challenge on Eduardo in the third minute.
"The tackle was horrendous and this guy (Taylor) should never play football again," Wenger told BBC television.
"I've seen some bad ones before but you are not always punished with a broken leg.
"The minimum is that the season is over and we're scared it is much longer."
Wenger later issued a statement saying his initial comments about
Taylor had been "excessive" while the club also said the striker had
undergone surgery and was resting.
Birmingham manager Alex McLeish said Taylor was very upset about the injury.
"He's absolutely distraught, he's not that type of player," he told
Sky Sports television. "He didn't feel he made that much contact with
Eduardo." (in Reuters)
