So, another horrific tackle against a Gunnar. I haven't seen a replay of the tackle as Sky refused to play one, but judging by Shawncross' reaction I don't think he was attempting to be malicious. Nonetheless, Fabregas mentioned that his team isn't protected like, say Real Madrid are in La Liga, but do incidents like this possibly justify the protection of star players or teams playing a certain style? Here is a link to a picture of Ramsey after the tackle, do not click on this link if you weren't able to stomach images of Eduardo's broken ankle.
