This isn't specific to Arsenal. More of a comment on society in general. We seem to have gone all touchy-feely in recent years and there is in football a definite lack of imagination when it comes to public displays of emotion.
Although very slowly moving away from daft goal celebrations (agent tells player to get himself a trademark?) it seems that running around pointing at the sky is coming into vogue - what does that mean? I'm waiting for someone to run into a goalpost while looking up at the heavens.
Now when a serious injury occurs we have tears! I get that it is both worrying and disappointing but now it seems you are only a real man if you cry!
Can't say I'm a fan of this behaviour.

Tbh, I'm more bothered by so called men rolling around on the floor clutching whatever part of their body has had a slight tap and acting as if they have been shot. In fact I've heard stories of some soldiers who've shot and reacted less than footballers do for a foul. Mind you the soldiers did get medals for it which is why the story gets reported.
Footballers need to man up and stop acting like a bunch of cry babies.

In fact I'd like to see the same as rugby where the game continues around them as they receive treatment with the option for the ref to stop the clock if the incident is serious enough to warrant it.

This kicking the ball out is nonsense - if a bloke is badly hurt the ref will stop the game -PLAY ON
