Shame to see someone who gained enormous sympathy when he broke his leg, instantly make himself a pariah through a moments idiocy. I wonder what Arshavin said to him after the game??
He cheated and was caught (evetually), others cheat and are not caught. This does not mean that Eduardo should not be punished, it just means that MORE players SHOULD be punished. Anyone that tries to defend a cheater is not a football lover – they are just a lover of their own team. I love football, I hate cheating whoever is doing it. In my book it’s indefensible – well done to those Gooners who have admitted that they are embarrased by Eduardo – those are true football fans. Well done to Tony Mowbray for not making a meal of it – shame on Arsene for defending a cheat – if he was trying to protect his (fragile?) leg – what was the cheeky grin to the camera for??. Whilst we’re on the subject, I’d also like to see cautions given out to those who openly celebrate the award of a penalty – makes me sick every time I see it…

As a player, sometimes it’s better to dive to avoid someone rather than try to stay on your feet and possibly get injured on the way through.

Diving ruins the game and should be punished. Eduardo dived. However, a 2 match ban “out of the blue” would be outrageously arbitrary and inconsistent, given all of the diving and cheating perpetrated by countless other players and teams. If diving is going to trigger a 2 match ban – fine, but announce it ahead of time, and apply it uniformly to all players and teams.

YOU GUYS I HAVE A DIFFERENT VIEW ALL TOGETHER. I TOO WATCHED THE MATCH. WHAT SEEMED TO ME VERY CLEAR IS THAT EDWARDO FELL. WHETHER HE SLIPPED OR WHAT NO ONE KNOWS. THE WHOLE BLAME SHOULD GO TO THE REFREE WHO GIVES A PENALTY HE WAS NOT SURE OF.

THE MEDIA WOULD HAVE BLAMED THE REFEREE MORE, BUT I THINK BECAUSE OF A.WENGER’S POLICY OF BRINGING IN FOREIGN PLAYERS, THE CLUB IS HATED. DOES NOT THAT ONE EXPLAIN WHY THEY ALWAYS WRITE US OFF EVERY SEASON?

MY REQUEST IS FOR THE WEAPONS TO WORK AT OLD TRAFFORD TOO AND THAT’S IS THE ONLY WAY TO SILENCE THE NEGATIVE MEDIA.
PLEASE WATCH HOW THE GUYS ARE GOING TO BE DIVING IN THAT MATCH AND THERE WILL NOT BE ANY MENTION OF THAT.
