hahaha no worries (I'm speaking as Bilbao here =P)

By the way, Bilbao is in excellent form right now, believe me. Excellent. I think they would defeat Barça and Madrid if they played today.

Schalke vs Bilbao will be a fantastic pair of matches. I'm expecting them to be pretty even, maybe a little of advantage for Athletic when playing in Bilbao and a little for Schalke when playing in Gelsenkirchen...

Fernando Llorente was meant to be a Spurs player this season, but some how he didnt come. Now he's tearing it up and would cost a shit load.

Fabrice Muamba has collapsed on the pitch against Tottenham and is now on his way to hospital. He needed CPR on the pitch.

Apparently he wasn't breathing. Praying for him.

Apparently he is in a stable condition now

Wish him all the best.

EDIT: And whilst we're at it, I hope Abidal's surgery goes ok.

Well now 'confirmed' reports suggest he is critically ill. Very conflicting so far...

He's still in critical condition, but quite "stable" there. Intensive care and all that stuff. I wish him all the best.

just watching an actual tv broadcast of that Spurs vs Bolton game on YT.
It is insanely shocking how unimportant and trivial all this madness about football can become within a moment when something like this happens. Makes you realize what really counts. Really hope he will recover.

I think his Twitter account throws it all into perspective:

Just got engaged to this lucky lady:

Him and his son before the cinema:

There is much more to life than every little thing we all get worked up over. He obviously has two very important people in his life who will no doubt be absolutely terrified about what the future holds for them. Luckily for him (and for them), he is probably in a position to comfortably retire from the sport if his health no longer allows him to compete. Of course, it goes without saying, we wish him all the best in his recovery. Unfortunately he's not out of the woods yet regarding what happened. Everytime he is mentioned in the news or on the football, there is little good news coming out of the Chest Hospital.

He might play for your rivals, he might play for a team you don't particularly like but at the end of the day, he's a human just like everyone else and in that sense, we all play for the same team. Massive credit has to go out to the health professionals from both Bolton and Tottenham yesterday who helped to start the fight for him. Also credit to the fan who is a cardiologist who came onto the field to offer his expertise.

Let's hope we have good news soon.
