Yeah, you'd think that'll be it now. It's now a recurring risk rather than a freak one-off.

On that note, it does seem to be happening occasionally. I thought all players were scanned for heart issues these days. Possibly the end of his playing career. Wish him a speedy recovery.
I also feel for those who had to witness such scenes. Not something you'd forget in a hurry.

He needs to pack in playing now for the good of his health. You can’t see a cardiac arrest coming sadly. That’s how my missus died at 39 years of age. A shadow DVT caused it that can’t be picked up. It’s bad news.

Nothing is more important than your health Thanks OH 👍 it was 7 years ago but I’ve really struggled this year. Any how, this isn’t about me and your original point is right that it’s worrying how often this is happening to footballers.

This topic always brings out the fruitcakes but for me it's a reflection on the strain that top lwvel athletes put on their bodies these days. Compared to players of yesteryear, today's footballers push themselves as hard as they can and look for every marginal gain they can obtain. That level of high performance puts a higher strain on their bodies and that's why those with underlying and often undetected issues are coming to light more frequently. That could be scientifically-flawed nonsense, but that's the way I see it.

It brings it home when this happened and Eriksen a couple of years back also.

Played football with a sport science lecturer at my previous job, and he said a few times that elite athletics of any sort these days is about pushing your body beyond what it can reasonably handle

When he collapsed in the Playoff Final it was atrial fibrillation rather than cardiac arrest. You’ve got to think now this has happened that’s career over for his own safety. Awful for the last and hope he makes a speedy recovery.
