Well he would have done had Gallas been playing for Birmingham and caught Eduardo in the same way that Gallas "fouled" Mark Davies tonight. There again Arsene didn't see it did he?

    And the F A have announced that they will not be taking any action against William Gallas. The Ref can't have seen the exact nature of the "tackle" because if he did he would have sent Gallas off so why are they not reviewing it?

    Wonder if they would have taken action if a Bolton player had assaulted an Arsenal player in the same way.

    It's a shame that someone can be so talented and yet so completely classless. I wish them all the worst.

    Exactly my opinion. Although Arsene can say and do some dick-ish things, I am generally a fan

    And what would Ferguson have said if had been one of his players? I'm with VG & Si. Rather Arsenal win it than any of ther other contenders. Love them or hate them they are the best footballing side in the PL by a country mile!

    It is not the wonderful football that Arsenal play that I question. It is Wenger's hypocrisy in relation to how he publicly hounded Taylor for what was a mistimed tackle on Eduardo and yet he and the F A are blind to the intent of Gallas's over the ball stamp.

    You would question him if he came out and publicly hounded Gallas, his own player, surely? Coyle has complained (as Wenger did about Taylor) so i dont see what the problem is. Im sure Wenger has had a word with Gallas as its not the first time he has been up to no good.

    Wenger didn't just complain - he called for a lifetime ban for Taylor for a foul that was in no way premeditated. And no I wouldn't expect Wenger to do anything.

    Hasn't Wenger come out and apologised though?

    Sure I saw it on the back of the paper this morning, they were making a joke out of him finally seeing an incident with one of his own players.

    I think he said sorry for the tackle and for them playing on afterwards.

    "I'm sorry that the tackle was not a good one". But it was worst than Taylor's and he was sent off with the associated ban. Yet the F A are doing nothing about it. Why is that?

    Thats a fair enough point AA, but its not Wengers fault. Its Gallas and the inconsistency of the FA.
