Was going to respond but I'll leave it for another time. It's not important.

Indeed.

Pretty much the latest news as of now:

"To recap on the situation, Bolton midfielder Fabrice Muamba collapsed on the pitch five minutes before half-time of Tottenham's FA Cup tie with Wanderers at White Hart Lane and received treatment on the pitch for 10 minutes while medical staff attempted to resuscitate him, using CPR and a defibrilator. The 23-year-old was not breathing when he was carried off, and the last news of his condition, which came at 1833 GMT, was that attempts to resuscitate him continued while he was taken to hospital. Bolton manager Owen Coyle and club captain Kevin Davies accompanied Muamba in the ambulance."

"Bolton midfielder Fabrice Muamba "critically ill" in intensive care at the heart attack centre of the London Chest Hospital, club says"

I really hope he pulls through. All the best Muamba!

[momentsgolden]

our prayers are with him.

Man that shits pretty scary.

Also saw Abidal is gonna need to go through treatment again.

Great show of pace from Torres to get Kalou in. Good finish too. 2-0 get in!

[Innovation]

Torres is looking a bit more like he has that fire about him again today. Hopefully will grab a goal or 2 and have a good run of form. He needs it cos tbh if it lasts much longer he is a write off.

Yeah defiantly. He seems to have half a yard of pace extra in him today. He should have a goal if Sturridge just knocked it back. Sturridge is class, but he's way too selfish.

[Innovation]

Fuck sake Sturridge, pass the ball!

[Innovation]

FERNANDO! FINALLY!!!

[SajN]

Omg, he scored

[Innovation]

Omg, he scored

Lmao yeah.

He's played fantastic today, he thoroughly deserved it.

[Innovation]

WHAT?! 2 goals from Torres?!

Before Torres got his first goal, he was 5-1 to score next lmao.

[Innovation]

Hopefully against some bigger clubs now....

Yup. He was in dire need of this game though. Finally netted a brace which will do wonders for his confidence. Great performance.

[Innovation]

Was good to see him still looking for others when he could be going for a hat trick and being selfish.

No doubt. Very unselfish.

Torres: 2 goals, 2 assists. Let's hope he's got a bit more confidence in him now. He's still a class player.

[dR3]

That's exactly what he needed, 2 goals & 2 assists. Come on Nando, City are next!

[dR3]

The question now is will he start ahead of the Drog on Wednesday.
