He broke his leg, but now he’s back

And Darren Bent is still quite cack;
Eduardo da Silva, Arsenal’s number 9.
Almost ten months after Martin Taylor’s horrific challenge left the Croatia striker with a compound fracture to his left fibula and open dislocation of the ankle, Eduardo will take to the field today for Arsenal Reserves against Porstmouth’s second string.
It’ll be incredibly heart-warming to see him play again, and I hope the fans and the management show the neccessary patience to make sure Eduardo is in the best possible shape when the time finally arrives for what will undoubtedly be the feel-good moment of the season: his return to the first-team.
If you can’t get down to Underhill, the game is on ArsenalTV. Let’s hope everything goes according to plan.
Welcome back, Eddy. You’ve been missed.
