Taylor: I'm so happy to see Eduardo back

Martin Taylor has revealed his relief at Eduardo's goal-scoring comeback in Arsenal's FA Cup replay victory over Cardiff on Monday, writes Ian Winrow.

The Birmingham defender was responsible for the tackle that broke the Croatian striker's leg and kept him sidelined for a year.

Taylor - who admitted he received death threats after the incident - said: "I kept updated throughout the game and then went on a website to see what average marks he had been given.

"Normally they are sixes and sevens. His was about 9.7. He must have done well. It's a relief to see him back playing. I know in my heart of hearts it was an accident."

Eduardo, however, said today that Taylor has still not phoned him to apologise. He said: "Some friends told me he was saying he'd spoken to me - but he never did."
