When Ramsey celebrated with Bendtner, I almost cringed as I knew what was coming :(

I want to see eboue operating central more often

well al least Shawcross didn`t look like done it on purpose.i guess that things like that just happen in football.arsenal will have to go on.

oh my godddd! i don't have words :O

No offense, but Ramsey went in for the ball hard too, and I don't think it is Shawcross's fault because if you look at the video carefully, Showcross was trying to kick the ball, but unfortunately Ramsey put his leg in the way of Shawcross's foot.

i guess the best thing now is to stop talking about it. its's over. it was sick. ramsey probably doesnt need it to be everywhere. at least we fans don't anymore. cmon gooners, we got a cup to win!

You can't escape the footage...

Make up your own mind as to who is lunging in...

R. Shawcross entrata criminale! L'Arsenal ha vinto, ma una squadra importante prierdere dopo la partita!

you have to hate stoke...not just because of the tackle. their football is awful and the crowd is so stupid. i m sorry but they seem so uneducated. their stupid cheering after mistakes of the away team drives me insane..they are like cavemen!

good win. arsenal are going to win the PL

Shawcross is a great player! One for the future! Ramsey too! Just a freak accident! Get over it girls!

Is anyone serious defending Shawcross? All it takes it a look at his young career to see he is a coward and a clumsy bully. A f**king joke of a player. Since he played for Antwerp he has been injurying players with his clumsy challenges(ie
). Have yourselves a look you blind bastards. In November 2008 he made a challenge on Adebayor(the c**t himself) and put him out for 3 weeks. Check the facts boys. It was unnecessary and off the pitch. Shawcross has a history of injurying players, it may be unlucky. It's unlucky when a pour hot grease out my window and it lands on a beautiful young lass. I must still face the consequences. Shawcross has potentially ruined the career of one of the brightest midfield prospects in all of europe. Watch his play with the Welsh national squad or in the Cup matches this year for arsenal. There is no doubt he was going to be a top class, quality player. Shawcross has taken this away from him. My heart goes out to Aaron. Let's all hope, for the sake of good football the world over, that he is able to put his head down and work hard to get back to the level the EPL demands. His skill certainly deserves no less. And to all the Shawcross apologists, get real. He is an animal, and if he weren't English you'd agree. Just imagine if Gallas made a similar tackle on Rooney or Gerrard. You'd all be calling for his head. But since it's an arsenal player, Shawcross is the victim that has to deal with Pyschological s**t. BS. Just look at poor Ramsey's leg.

Having now seen 4 examples of injuring players by Shawcross. For Antwerp (1) and for Stoke (3), all those out there with the "Hes not that kind of player" defense can eat their words. To all of the MAN U and Liverpool and Chelsea and England fans out there, what would you be saying if Rooney or Gerrard, or your beloved JT had been the victim of a challenge which left them with their leg being snapped like a twig? Yeah I'll bet you would be defending the tackle and saying it was 50-50, right? You would keep on with "He's not that kind of player", right? You would say it was just bad luck, right? Just a coincidence I suppose....but I'm with AW on this one, don't believe in coincidence.

"he doesnt have that type of reputation",

So as long as I am nice and have all the good manners I can go around chopping down players?

The English media is the biggest load of crap going along with the FA, PL and many of the refs.

Shawcrosses tackle was iffy, but i dont know if it deserved a red card. Ramsey has been playing well, but the league seems to becoming plagued with injuries as things wind down.
