2. Eduardo da Silva

Arsenal striker Eduardo da Silva went to the hospital after suffering a horrific leg break in their Premier League clash with Birmingham on February 23, 2008.

The Brazilian-born star was in agony after a lunging tackle by defender Martin Taylor sent him crashing to the grass at St Andrews.

The injury was so shocking that players reeled in horror, with several unable to look at Eduardo's injury. Sky Sports said they would not replay the incident because the pictures were too horrific.
