    Collapsed on the pitch today playing for Bolton V Tottenham in the FA Cup, due to a cardiac arrest.

    Prayers to him & his family, hopefully he pulls through. Just 23.

    Likewise, prayers.

    Such a horrible thing to happen, so many people watching and praying he'll pull through. Kudos to those who went to help.

    A guy down the road dropped to the ground a few weeks ago and lived. If those around him didn't know what to do he probably wouldn't be sat in his hospital bed eating grapes and doing the sudoko today.

    Time to tell people how to suck eggs...

      Fabrice is now in critical condition in intensive care, not looking good.

      This happens more each year in football, because when doing medicals, they can't pick up if the player has a default with their heart, normally it's too late before they do realise it.

      Contrary, he was in a critical condition in the middle of a football pitch and it didn't look good. He's now in a critical condition in one of the world's best Chest hospitals. The fact he survived it and considering where he is now I think things are looking positively better. I hope so at least.

        He was stable an hour ago.

        Many Premiership teams have Tweeted their well-wishes to the player, but many Liverpool fans are saying United are the only team not to do so, despite the fact United don't have a Twitter.. seems still during such tragedies, some people can still be total morons.

          The problem is not the heart, they have got that ticking again, THE PROBLEM is lack of blood suppy to his BRAIN !
          Therefore he may live but as a vegetable

          People do not realise there ARE worse things than DEATH

          Unfortuanatley I am of the age to know this
          I do hope he comes through but in all honesty I doubt it

          If that were to be the case then I hope he crosses the BAR both for him and his family
