If that is it for his career...
Thank you, Christian Eriksen!
And now is probably the most pleased I’ve felt after one.That was by far the worst I’ve ever felt watching a football match.
Whilst sat there helpless watching Muamba collapse at White Hart Lane it dawned on me I knew fuck all about heart attacks and cardiac arrests, in fact, I didn't even know they were two different things!!Was it really a cardiac arrest?
Amazing that could happen to a player who has been so fit and healthy. Fingers crossed he could play on.
hahaha, whilst you posted this I've just posted my story following Muamba's collapse, at that time neither did I!!! Witnessing Muamba's collapse that night had a profound effect on me, genuinely affected my mood, he was based at the London Chest Hospital which was just around the corner from me and I found myself walking past it every day with all the press gathered outside.
Graphic from thread. I didn't even know there was a difference
Haha, pipe down slapper.
I had a similar experience today when told at cricket. Weird.hahaha, whilst you posted this I've just posted my story following Muamba's collapse, at that time neither did I!!!

I will never forget that night, really emotional and ultimately for someone that looks for control in most aspects made me feeling shit. Wasn't until I did the training that I started to feel myself again.
But tonight, it all came back, maybe more so because it was Eriksen and/or because it was on TV and that feeling of helplessness came flooding over me. Horrific.
What, that he would suffer sudden cardiac arrest on the pitch in 2021, just 'cos some of his performances tailed off a bit in his last few years for us...honestly, the last couple years he played for us, i noticed that eriksen did suddenly lose a bit of physicality/endurance etc.
maybe this explains it
praying for a full recovery soon
Certainly, up there with us getting knocked out the cup by Colchester.That was by far the worst I’ve ever felt watching a football match.
Thanks for the professional insight.
Not a problem.Brilliant post. Thank you.
Yeah it's part of the reason they moved it to the winter.Qatar?
The cameramen were likely as shocked as anyone, and may not have thought about anything else other than paying attention to what’s happening with Ericksen.

It poses too many health risks to have it in the summer.
The Tokyo Olympics is going to be tough going for the athletes too.
