It actually hit him on the chest/shoulder. But it looks like he may have hit his head on the post heading the ball. Also I think the bottle was aimed at a Galaxy player
but he emerged from out of the goal and took the hit.
That is apparently where the Dallas supports are do I doubt they would aim at their own player.

What happened, anyone see?
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
As i previously reported he will have thigh surgery.

No Somos muchos pero estamos locos.
A few rash challenges. He got his yellow and soon after he clattered his body into the fleet-footed Walcott. The challenge was more awkward than malicious and he was found rooted to the ground when he should have pulled out. However, he was on his last warning and stayed on his feet for the rest of the game, making some decent blocks and interceptions. He was nutmegged by Carzorla in the box, it must be mentioned.
I saw the one that Wenger was on about. More clumsy than dangerous and malicious.
It's pathetic at this stage of Walcott's career though that he gets pushed off the ball so easily.

Gibbo is a selected performer for the 4th time this season by the EFCmatchcomps guy.
Read in Indo today that he's on his stag in Marbella this week... apparently he gives regular twitter updates....
Be amazed if he ever returned to international football, new management or not...
Yeah, I heard he's planning on getting married every year.
As far as we know the Gibson situation hasn't changed. He's not playing under Trap again. What do you expect a player who's getting married in the near future to be doing during their summer break? Why has this information suddenly made you come to that bizarre conclusion that he'd never return?
I think he'll definitely return when Trap goes.
With all the players Trap has fallen out with it was inevitable one or two would say they would not play under him again
Folding my way into the big money!!!
That would be very big of him.
Yes, but Trapp. knows too well how to 'not win friends'.
Gibson is wrong but you can also see why he did it.
I fail to see how him going on his stag holiday is going to be the end of his international career. He's been on holiday before... in 2010 and 2011 he pulled out of the summer internationals with injury. 2012 was a different matter altogether. Things probably would have turned out better if he had missed that one through injury as well. 5 weeks with Trap sent him into his exile and here we are.
Fair enough you're one of those hardliner folk. I just see it differently. There is a manager who picks the squad and team. If you have personal issues with this manager then it is possible that they could prevent a player from playing for him. Different issues and different players will react differently of course.
I'd say he will play for the new manager. Of course you could be right and we might never see him again, however I doubt it was because he went on holiday in May 2013.
P.S. S. Ireland and Gibson situations have very little in common. Mr. Ireland's absence is under vastly different circumstances, he would be nowhere near the squad on form and I doubt he's spent a whole lot of time preparing for club duties in the recent past.
Ireland and Gibson's situations might have little in common now, but they were very similar originally. Nobody really cared all that much when both players began their exile, but a (continued) good run at club level brought about a greater sense of loss amongst a decent percentage of the supporters.
Who are you calling nobodies?
Maybe you didn't care about Gibson's exile at the time but there are quite a few here who did care, even those who didn't have sympathy for his decision.
I still don't care to be honest. I meant the majority were less frustrated at the time than they are now, maybe I'm wrong on that score but I don't think so. Obviously that is natural enough anyway as the better he's performing at club level the more he's going to be missed. I was just making the point that himself and Stephen Ireland's situations weren't all that different, Gibson's exile is just at an earlier stage and his club football is currently perceived to be of a high standard, as Stephen Ireland's once was.

I think Gibson is a class act and would enhance our team. Given how many of last years fringe players are now regulars I think it's fair to say that Gibson would have had a very decent chance of having started most of this campaign, possibly even in place of Trap's beloved Glenn Whelan.
They are completely different.
Ireland retired because he didn't feel like playing anymore. He even had Trap and Brady begging for him to come back. He informed them that he would let them know when he wanted to return.
Gibson's issue is with the current manager. It is a personal issue between two 'personalities'. Arguments, insults, disillusionment, stubbornness and here we are.
By the way, Gibson was the form midfielder going into the euros and imo still is (argument can certainly be made for McCarthy). Any sensible person knew from looking at our midfield options that his exile was a big loss. I'm not sure that the amount of people bemoaning his absence has increased at all. I'd say it's about the same level as it ever was.
The situations may be a bit different in that Stephen Ireland didn't seem to want to play with the other players (talks of bullying, etc.) and Gibson doesn't want to play for Trap. Agreed.
I just meant in terms of how they are/were performing at club level.
Gibson was arguably the form midfielder in the couple of months before the Euros at club level but certainly shouldn't hadn't have considered himself a shoe-in for game time in my opinion, given his contribution to qualifying, etc. Anyway that's been discussed to death. He quite possibly would be a shoe-in by now if he hadn't thrown his toys out of the pram but, alas, they're the choices we make.
Personally I just see the guy as being the complete opposite of an Irish player should represent in terms of attitude. We may be missing out on a talent but I wouldn't be too upset about it. I'd imagine he'll be back in the fold post-Trap though.
I hate this toys out of the pram stuff to be honest. It's more than just not playing, it's personal. I don't think Gibson cared if Trap wanted to make him first choice and captain after the euros. It's a moot point. He clearly doesn't want to work with him anymore.
I think he has a great attitude from what I've seen of him. He's a definite hard-worker and leader on the pitch. I don't know what you're basing that comment on. If a manager verbally insults a player then I think they'd be perfectly entitled to consider whether or not they wanted to play for him again. You would then be entitled to question their stubbornness perhaps, but to question their attitude, gimme a break.
