Eduardo’s first interview with Croatian TV

- He’ll be going to Brazil soon, probably this week, and he’ll begin his rehabilitation there.

- News of The World interview was made up. He never spoke to them.

- He feels fine, and hasn’t watched the pictures or the video of the injury. He is very calm, and thinks his family suffered more than he did, and that he spent the last few days reassuring his wife and kid that everything will be okay, and that they need not worry.

- Before the interview, the reporter had to agree not to ask anything about Martin Taylor. The only thing Dudu said was that Taylor did not visit him in the hospital to offer an apology, like some papers reported.

- It’s too early to say when will he be back, and whether he’ll be better or worse than he was before. There is a long way to go, and he stressed that it will be important to be mentally prepared to get back in to the game, and not just physically.

- Eduardo thanked all of the Croatian and Arsenal fans for the support they have given him, and reiterated how important it was for him. He also thanked his teammates, and all the people at Arsenal.

Fucking media *word censored*. I'd love to see a mass boycott of the press from Gooners!

well that doesnt suprise me that the media make taylour up to be the hero goin to the hospitalwhen he never showed his face what a twat

[T.S]

Part of me wonders how the media can possibly get away with posting lies like this. The other part of me knows that getting pissed off about it is an exercise in futility.

oh my god how do the papers get away with telling shit about him visiting dudu. i could get really pissed about this but wont let myself

[dvbrisgooner1]

Arsenal should have put the truth on Arsenal.com showing the press up for the lying apologists they are. All this business about Taylor visiting the Crozillian was clearly done to get the public on his side again. Fucking disgraceful.

[olgitgooner]

Agree. Any paper publishing this total lie should be named and shamed.
I'm really surprised that Taylor didn't have the decency to visit him. And just say sorry.
Is Taylor a prize bastard? Or did the legal people tell him to stay away?
Lawyers and (not all) journalists. Not a lot of difference between them. Truth is just a side issue.

The media are fucking wankers but we as Arsenal fans should know that by now. I think Arsenal missed a trick by not reporting the truth. It could have been great for us and ed to have shown Taylor and the media up. However i think the incident at Brum needs to be put behind us and we need to concentrate on the good times ahead. Enjoy the ride Gooners!

[Sutch]

I just happened to notice yesterday or the day before that the media are now praising us up but when we done bad last year they were all over us. *word censored*

[Magic Hat]

Utterly disappointed to hear Taylor didn't visit

[Cesc is God]

Why would Taylor lie about it if he could easily be found out? Perhaps, as stated by Taylor, Eduardo was still groggy from the operation and can't remember the apparently brief meeting properly?
