Weve got a goal thread for the good side of football...but what about the bad side....Post the worst tackles you've seen.

Heh, why is it when I saw this thread I knew that would be the first video.

This version is a lot better though. You can even hear the collision of elbow and chin.

Here's a few from Michael Brown. I'm really surprised he's managed to get away with these kind of tackles.

I saw an article in The Sun I think, and he said something like, "I know it looks bad, but I was going for the ball."

Can anybody else smell that bullshit?

Here's another one I remember seeing last season against Pompy.

Everyone always goes on about that Larsson one, but that's his shin pad, not his leg. I think he still breaks his leg, it just looks a hell of a lot worse there.

its his leg, hence the back of his calf being bent in half

I'm sure I saw in the paper when it happened that they said it was his pad, but I just noticed the close-up shot. Oww!

The larsson one was bad, i was watching the match on tv when ciise broke his leg, just seeing it made my leg hurt....I dislike him as a player personally, but that's goota of hurt....
