Following on from the Birmingham v Arsenal game earlier on, her are a couple of pics of the incident. Can he recover from it. Odds are stacked against him me thinks.

Arsene Wenger has been interviewed about the incident, and he hinted that it has more than likely ended his career |

The tackler should leave the game.

There appeared to be no intent, but it was studs up and he lunged, and there was no arguing over the straight red card |

From Wiki
"Eduardo suffered a horrific broken leg in the third minute of Arsenal's match against Birmingham City on 23 February 2008, after a tackle by Martin Taylor, who was sent off for it.[7] Eduardo received eight minutes of on-field treatment before being stretchered off wearing an oxygen mask. Replays available on the internet showed that the two pieces of broken bone became perpendicular to each other with his foot seemingly dangling by a thread from his leg. Commentators say this may be one of the worst injuries in English top flight football history.[8] The injury was so graphic that Sky Sports, who were showing the game live, decided not to show replays of the incident. After being stretchered off the field, he was immediately taken to hospital for further treatment.[8] Eduardo is almost definitely going to miss the rest of the 2007–08 season and miss out on Euro 2008. Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger called for a lifetime ban of Taylor for the tackle, adding on Sky Sports: "His injury is very, very bad. More than the season is over" |

It's not just the break, but nore seriously to his career, the muscle, tendon and ligament damage. I saw him earlier this seson, rip my team apart.
If it does end his career, it will be a sad loss to English and Croatian football. |
