Nolans challenge on Anichebe was dangerous but I don't think he had any intention of injuring him, it just reflected he general lack of tacking ability. This challenge was different, it was just reckless it showed absolutely no regard for another players safety.
 
Why is oxygen administered? Is it for pain control?...and if so, how does that work?
Oxygen has a number of different physiological effects. Following trauma patients can hyperventilate and any form of artificial ventilation (even with a face mask) can regulate breathing. When physical damage occurs to tissue pockets of hypoxia can develop in the affected tissue which causes increased irritation at nerve endings (which results in increased pain levels) and increasing the oxygen saturation of the blood can limit these effects. Additionally, and I know this seems odd, but the placebo affect associated with doing something that appears medical can distract a patient from the traumatic event that they are currently experiencing.
 

Actually devastated. Was in work all day and evening, didn't even know he was playing until I got a text about the injury.

Get well soon Seamus.
 
Absolutely no need in that tackle, what did he have to gain from it? Hope seamus comes back from that, so sorry for him, never mind playing football again, right now he needs to focus on being able to walk without pain again.

thank you for that explanation...makes sense to me.

That's my point. There's one reason for that type of tackle. One.
