Dr_Pangloss Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Just awful, I have fond memories of him playing for Sevilla back in 2001-2003, he was a really outstanding young player with superb ability, didn't quite hit the heights at Arsenal but certainly showed glimpses of what he could do there.

HanoiVillan Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I always enjoyed watching him play, and was a little sad when Arsenal sold him, as he thought he still had a lot more he could do in English football. Sad news; thoughts to his loved ones obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted June 1, 2019 Author Share Posted June 1, 2019 Appears he's cousin was also killed, a third person is in hospital Daily mail showing pictures of an upturned car in a roadside ditch on fire. He was part of the invincibles squad, the first Spaniard to win the Premier league, never hit the heights expected in England but he won the league with real Madrid scoring the winner to win the title, also won europa league twice with sevilla. Very sad news, RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Really sad news. I didn't realise he was still playing but I suppose he was really young when he went to Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And me because when I said in the deadpool thread I thought he was a great player who unfortunately was a bit overshadowed by their world class players one of the players I meant was Fabregas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Crashed his car while driving 200 kilometers p/hr apparently. Killed himself and 2 other people. So sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 35 year old man, 3 children. I have drove like a maniac in my time, I used to drive like an absolute Representative for Wellingborough. Even though I don't have kids I naturally grew out of it. I see it all the time still, grown men driving like teenagers. What possesses them? Such a waste, such a selfish act. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 (edited) I have to say, when I felt initially sad here, it was under the assumption - a very naive one, I suppose, given we're talking about a footballer here - that it was an *accident*, rather than *utterly reckless driving* that had happened, and frankly it changes my perspective quite a lot. We're absolutely plagued by people driving like idiots in my area. My road, which is less than 400 metres long, contains a church which frequently has lots of parked cars and old biddies, and also a sort of wacky warehouse type thing for small kids, and despite this there's constantly idiots flooring it like Lewis Hamilton.
