Anyone watching the Stoke City against Arsenal game on Saturday would have been absolutely sickened to see the horrific injury against Arsenal forward Aaron Ramsey. The horror show tackle could easily end Ramsey's career such was the extent of the injury.

The incident happened in the second half when Ryan Shawcross knocked the ball ahead of him and tried to catch up to it while Aaron Ramsey ran forward to intercept the ball.

The injury suffered by Aaron Ramsey on a hard tackle by Ryan Shawcross was gruesome. But there were some positives to take away from this incident: sportsmanship and cool heads.

In the Jewish faith, the act of becoming a man at thirteen is a huge step. Standing before your family, friends, and the community as a whole, you are recognized as a full member of the community. For me as a Jew, that is the moment that I became a man. For most of you, you can probably remember the moment that you became a man.

Words that, in a fair world, would never occur in proximity: "nineteen-year-old player" and "potentially career-ending injury." Sending positive thoughts and healing wishes your way, Aaron. (I also have a fair bit of sympathy for Ryan Shawcross, who was in tears as he was leaving the pitch. Bad tackle, yes, but [.

Arsenal's frozen assets are in the form of key players returning to fitness and form if everything goes our way, we may see the loss of yesterday's game as a bonus in that it gives us a little more time to get closer to full strength. The return of Cesc, Vermaelen, Ramsey and Diaby would make us a force to be reckoned with capable of fighting on many fronts and yes, beating Barcelona why not?

Fulham's American winger Clint Dempsey has suffered suspected cruciate knee ligament damage, which could jeopardise his place at the 2010 World Cup.The 26-year-old United States international was injured in the second half of Fulham's 2-0 loss to Blackburn and went to hospital for a scan."The initial prognosis for Clint is not good," said Fulham manager Roy Hodgson.

I have written 20 articles for coaches who tend to over-coach, place too much importance on the X's and O's, and don't let their players go out and have fun and make mistakes. Since the articles were written during the first few months of the blog, they don't get the visibility they deserve. The articles are valuable for players and parents alike.

With the glut of injuries at the Emirates this season, Aaron Ramsey has been given his big chance to prove that he could fit easily into the Arsenal first team, and he has capped a run of eight straight games with a brilliant goal against Portsmouth last week. Manager Arsene Wenger believes that the young Welshman [.

Ryan Shawcross had no intention of turning Aaron Ramsey‘s leg into putty when he went into his tackle yesterday. Martin Taylor had no interest in seeing Eduardo's leg shattered in two when he went studs up against him two years ago. Dan Smith took no delight in the crunching sound of Abou Diaby's ankle being fractured and dislocated when he went in late against him two years before that.

If the media would stop clanging their cymbals together about Arsenal being "bad for England," and how "Arsenal don't care about English players" and actually look at the situation, they would see that Arsenal may very well have amassed the best collection of young English talent at a single club in the last decade or so.

This excellent post written by RedArse was sent to us over the weekend and continues the discussion about serious injuries. Thank you RedArse for your contribution.

Like most Arsenal fans, I greeted, with relief and joy, the news, that "Rambo" Ramsey was not far from resuming full time training, with a view to returning in the New Year.

Several things today:

First and foremost, we have some actual tentatively positive news on the injury front.

My boy St. Nicklas is apparently finally nearing a return. After reinjuring the groin injury which hampered him at the end of last season while representing Denmark in the World Cup, the Great Dane is back in contention.

Just like last season, I thought I would have a look at the top teenagers currently playing in the Premier League. These footballers are all destined to be top players and may even turn out to be World class if they continue to expand on their already flourishing reputations.

Firstly, I would like to thank all those who wrote such kind words regarding my piece in the Arsenal in the Community book. Secondly, I would like to thank Peaches and Rasp for establishing such a hotbed of creative activity.

Which has nothing whatsoever to do with Stoke, particularly the "hotbed of creative activity!

A handful of first team regulars were uncharacteristically slotted into the FA Cup team by Arsene Wenger as Arsenal survived West Ham's efforts to upset them. The Hammers looked to be in control and ready to apply yet another blow to Arsenal's season after coming back from two goals down to draw earlier in the season.

... we also need the kind of youthful exuberance and enthusiasm that was shown by Aaron Ramsey following his equalizer at Upton Park. The 19-year old ran straight into the 500 traveling Arsenal supporters followed by Carlos Vela to celebrate his superbly taken equalizer.

Slightly older players like van Persie and Eduardo enthusiastically celebrate goals but not like Ramsey today or, for that matter, Cesc.

Arsenal fought back from a goal down to beat West Ham.

The FA Cup never fails to bring romance back into the game of football. In classic David versus Goliath fashion, Leeds United relived moments of their past glories by shocking a strangely subdued Manchester United. That win brought about feelings of "can do" while approaching the subsequent FA Cup 3rd round match of the weekend, West Ham United versus Arsenal.

It's the small things that count. Five years down the line, Arsenal fans may well still be celebrating the time Fergie said he was too busy and let Gary Neville show Aaron Ramsey around the training ground. Or, perhaps more importantly, how Arsene Wenger flew Ramsey and his parents out to Euro 2008 and explained the benefits of little Aaron signing for Arsenal.

The Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger praised the contribution of his captain Cesc Fabregas in the 2-0 win over Bolton yesterday, as he returned to the side after missing three games through injury, and said that he couldn't explain how important Fabregas is to his team. "If you watch the game today it is difficult to say how [.

Arsenal FC have confirmed that 19-year-old Welsh midfielder Aaron Ramsey will miss the remainder of the season after fracturing his right fibula and tibia in the Premier League match at Stoke last night. The injury, which brought back horrible memories of Eduardo's career-threatening injury at Birmingham two years ago, was caused as a result of Ryan [.

In America, the people go on about their 2nd Amendment rights to own a gun. And so, despite 2004 figures showing that almost 12,000 people are murdered a year by guns, it is oh so easy to acquire a gun in America.
The point here, is that the crime is not in owning a gun: if I had a pistol framed on my bedroom wall it wouldn't threaten anyone.

Ho Hum, another season, another trophy! Manchester United fans may well get that feeling at times. No, the Carling Cup is not the most glamorous competition in world football but hey, a trophy is...

Following painstaking research from the nation's leading football pundits, and Robbo Robson, it has been discovered that many Arsenal players amazingly - do not take kindly to being maimed every other year.

As well as not relishing the time-honoured British traditions of seeing their stricken teammates' limbs hanging off by a spindly thread and receiving oxygen as they leave the pitch, it has also been rumoured that Arsenal are also believed to be, shockingly, mainly foreign (ed-I know!

That's it then. Arsenal have officially turned the corner. In the same way that Eduardo's injury, Stuart Parnaby's dive and William Gallas's teary outburst reflected the collapse of their 2007-08 title challenge, so Ramsey's injury, Danny Pugh's waving arms and Cesc Fabregas's penalty will reflect Arsenal's glorious rampage to the title.

Lets Do It For Aaron..

Indian Education system is quiet idealistic in its approach and quiet philosophical as well, if I can say so. I learnt it long back in school that everything happens for good. Every action has a tinge of positivity in it, which is in turn, is elementary to the existence of everything in this world.

Arsenal FC

Football is awash with statistics. Goals for and goals against, average points per game and territorial advantages. I will start with 2.10. That is Arsenal's average points per game this season. After 29 games, Arsenal has 19 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses.

Aaron Ramsey, the 19 year old midfielder of Arsenal had a horrific injury in the club's recent Premier League match against Stoke City. Basing on the video below, it looks like it's the end of his promising career, but hopefully not.

Look at the part 3:52 in this video.

As Arsenal fans, when injuries cropped up, we tend to think that we have more injuries than other clubs. However that is not the reality with the exception of this season. In terms of the normal injuries like muscle pain or knocks, we are basically the same with the rest of the of the European [...]

Part II, comin' at ya!:

1. The Domestic Cups We didn't win either one of them. And we didn't come particularly close. But considering the circumstances, I don't think we can actually be too disappointed.

In the Carling Cup, we just have to face up to the fact that that's not a competition we even try to win any more.

Aaron Ramsey may need emergency surgery after it looks like he broke his leg in yesterday's 3-1 victory at Stoke. The Arsenal midfielder was transferred to a hospital in London.

"We know it's a bad injury we don't know how long he will be out but it's certainly long term," Wenger said.

It is a very emotional Aaron Ramsey the one showing his gratitude to all the fans who sent him "get well soon" messages via the club's official website. The 19-year old suffered a horrible injury last ...

It's day four in this week of polls and today we shift our focus on who, in your opinion, was the most improved player of the season. When talking about improvement I always go back to ...

The Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has come to terms with his horrific injury which is expected to keep him out until well into next season, and is looking at it very philosophically. He believes that it is just a "test of his character" and he will be an even better player when he comes through [.
