Man Arrested Over 'Racist' Muamba Tweets

http://news.sky.com/home/uk-news/article/16191419

How f*cked up can you get!

Benzema and Ramos before game...

My apologies if it this sounds a bit racist, but this sudden heart attack appears to affect African footballers far more than others. There have been no fewer than 11 such incidents (Muamba included) in the last 20 or so years involving black players. Lillian Thuram went through his whole career without knowing he had a heart defect, as well.

I don't think you're comment is racist at all, but what you may have picked up on is that it is a problem that has a correlation to ethnicity as well as hereditary. A study in the US found that African-American athletes were 3 x more likely to have an abnormal ECG than their white counterparts.

What I find amazing is that they miss these heart issues even with all the medical screenings that professional athletes undergo.

Any news on Muamba today? Is he still being kept in an induced coma? My prayers and thoughts are with him and his family. I can imagine how his wife feels and my heart breaks for her.

[Laylabelle 9,369]

Yeah they were saying on Sky Sports some problems arent so easily detected despite screening etc

Just hope he pulls through..kinda good how much stuff has changed since Jose complained when Cech was injured.Was reading in the Mail the changes they may from the complaint and defintly has helped things

[chrismada9 1,948]

Decided to change my avatar for the sole purposes of praying for Muamba's recovery! Please god, stay with him and keep him feeling well!

If When Muamba pulls through, it will have a lot to do with this man great effort. Fortunate that he was on the scene and quick to react.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

The medics reacted wonderfully. Knew straight away what was going on, like ESPN said 'if he pulls through, it will be solely down to the quick work of the medical team'

Absolutely. I know this may sound awful, but such a thing happening actually makes you proud of human achievement; we now have the power to potentially stop death. I hope the lad pulls through, and as you say, it will entirely be down to that wonderful group of people that reacted so brilliantly, in a true professional manner, to do what they did in such pressurised circumstances. The whole world was watching.

Its times like these you hope there is a God, because such good-will could only result in a positive outcome.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Good news coming through that he's doing better, moving his limbs too!

Hope this case now marks an age of more extensive, regular cardio tests for players.

[Laylabelle 9,369]

Fingers crossed all good from here.Signs and reports are postive

[CHOULO19 24,332]

He's started speaking! Wonderful news.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Great news! The response from the football community has been terrific.

[termninja 5,290]

Good to hear it. Recover soon mate

[Badboy 1,526]

What made me feel so glad was the reaction of the opposition supporters and players. This really shows that football is just a game and it should never be taken so seriously ! Everyone forgot about the game in fact hardly anyone knows what the score was I certainly don't know because football was 2nd for once among supporters.

[capriccioso 2,545]

He's speaking

So he won't be a vegetable now will he?

So there is a correlation? That doesn't sound too good for us. Our team has quite a few Africans and people of African heritage.
