Nowt wrong with that Dave, it was only a yellow card!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a surprise - Andy Gray excusing him for it. 'He was jumping to block the ball'. Jock twat.
I'm more interested in the referee. Maybe Mr Winter can write something in his column about it, and what was wrong with the punishment dished out to Henry...
“I don’t think Diaby’s tackle was malicious, it was more protective.” - Arsene Wenger
"There was a bit of an over reaction with the way it was treated, yes," said Wenger. "If it is a bad, malicious tackle I can understand that it is shown every half an hour, but the way that happened, it can happen every game.
"I said after the game if Gallas has injured the player, we are sorry, we will have a look at the tackle and if it is malicious we will come out and make a statement.
"We looked at it carefully and we saw that it was just a mistimed tackle.
"That is why we didn't see why such a story could flare up and make a national story if the intention of the player was completely right.
"I cannot say that all the tackles that we have got in the last two games were completely accidental.
"The problem in England is that the sensitivity of one media dictates what the whole country has to think and I raise big question marks over the competence and the objectivity of the guys who make these kind of decisions."

Wenger really is the lowest form of humanity isn't he.
The point here is that this happens in every team, in every game, in every league, sometimes more frequent, sometimes with intent sometimes without.
The point it that Arsene Wenger is a hypocrite who claims that teams like Stoke go out deliberately to injure his players because they play "superior" football and he never acknowledges that his fancy players are as dirty as they come.

To reinforce your point jen, I've been trying to find out how many of Wenger's players have been sent off during his reign at Arsenal. The best that I can come up with is this from Wiki "Wenger's sides were often criticised for their indiscipline, receiving 73 red cards between 1996 and 2008" That's almost 7 a season or one every six games and he has the gaulic brass neck to criticise any one else!!
It seems 3 tackles that cause an injury is all you need to be a reckless thug so Diaby is no doubt being burnt at the stake at the Arsenal training ground as we speak.
The awful one he did on Steinsson was very bad but not on YouTube. Been on SkySports all week.

The man is devoid of any reasoning or logic. Prior to our game I just dismissed the bloke as a mumbling, mad, partially sighted geriatric. ,i still think he's all those things but i'd add to that an embarrassment to his club and football in general.
To those that attempt to perpetrate the myth that it was the fault of the fans, I will never tire of reminding them that it was the ordinary fans that were the real heroes of the day, not the villains. They reacted, while those in authority froze.
