Diaby has fractured and disolcated his Ankle - like Alan Smith's injury but not as BAD

Quote:

Arsenal have confirmed that Abou Diaby has dislocated and broken his ankle.

The promising midfielder was left crestfallen at The Stadium of Light on Monday when a rash challenge by Sunderland substitute Dan Smith caught him towards the end of a comfortable 3-0 victory for Arsenal.

After the game Arsene Wenger was fuming at Smith and what he thought was the overly robust nature of Sunderland's tackling in general.

The French tactician felt Kevin Ball's side went beyond the laws of the game and admitted immediately that he thought Diaby could well have suffered a serious injury.

Wenger's worst fears have now been realised and it will be heartbreak for Diaby, who will now miss Arsenal's UEFA Champions League final against Barcelona.

Despite the fact Diaby left the field on a stretcher Ball defended his player, claiming there was no intent in Smith's lunge for the ball.

Arsenal striker Thierry Henry has been named as the Barclays Premiership Player of the Year.

Quote:

Robin van Persie is the subject of an FA probe into racial abuse during the Manchester City v Arsenal game.

The Arsenal striker is alleged to have racially abused City's David Sommeil.

City boss Stuart Pearce was informed by referee Graham Poll that there had been an allegation of racial abuse but he spoke to both players individually during the match to calm the matter down.

Pearce added: "None of my players mentioned it to me at half time or after the game.

"But if someone does come and speak to me about it, it will be taken very seriously."

The incident was believed to have taken place after a tussle in the penalty box.

The FA is now awaiting Sommeil's response before deciding whether to launch a formal inquiry.

If this is true^

I don't want him at arsenal however good he is. I thought he changed after his previous allegations.

It depends on what he said that was deemed racist, Sommeil could have made it up or it could have been said in a completly different context. Wrong maybe but RvP was seriously pissed off during that game and probably said it in his fury without thinking what he said.

Get a grip, of course he wouldn't have made it up, van Persie is a rapist and now a racist.

He was cleared of all those allegations....

Consented sex isn't rape.

Anyway lets keep of the rape topic. I don't know why, most forums aren't allowed to talk about them.

van persie isnt a racist, though he is hot-tempered. sommeil was trying to wind him up all game and he obviously got to him but i still think sommeil probably made it up as if RVP had really done it then he would have told stuart pearce.

and toonarmy dont see how you can talk, bowyer and woodgate, ring any bells??
