A very nasty broken leg for Eduardo against Brum.  Taylor red-carded for the challenge in the 3rd minute.

Eduardo has been taken straight to hospital, and apparently it's a bad injury.  So bad, that Sky won't show a replay of the incident.

Get well soon fella.

Am watching online - Hleb's reaction said it all.

Gutted for the lad.

From the Guardian commentary.

Apologies for not watching the football for a couple of minutes - it's basically a training session anyway - but I've just seen a picture of Taylor's challenge, and it is completely and utterly disgraceful. Flying through the air studs up, he lunges in halfway up the shin of Eduardo's standing leg. The striker's leg clean snaps at a right angle; no wonder Fabregas was holding his head in his hands the minute he saw it. It's going to be an ethical dilemma for sports editors across the country, is this picture.

I had the game on but missed the challenge. I do want to see it again, I want to be able to make my own mind up if it was a bad challenge or just one of those things. the degree of the leg bend shouldn't come into it - Cisse & Dyer have both had wobbly leg breaks shown - I expect it being shown in future will depend on if it looks career threatening or not.

On a positive note good to see Walcott look like a footballer.

Looks very close to the ankle, could make it a bit more complicated.

Man I've just ate my dinner and its not stayin down too well after seeing that- it looks as if the fib and tib have completely detached from the foot- my thoughts are with him-just hope he can recover and play again cuz I'd imagine he'll be out for some time.

P.S I know it might seem sick but was anybody else annoyed that sky didn't show the pictures-we as viewers should be able to witness it and make our minds up on the tackle- its kinda like a car crash..you dont want to see it but when there is one you cant help but look at it.

Ps. even though the lad is a goon, its still stomach churning, and I hope he recovers.

Just put this up in the lounge, didnt realise it was in here.  Pretty sick!

I didnt think the challenge looked that bad, but to go through his bone like that it must have been a bit strong.
