You're telling me Tom Cleverley, Josh King and Moussa Sissoko can play a high press like this but somehow our team of superstars can't.

I genuinely think Ole thought playing a load of rondos at training would be all that was needed.

Are we going to have to stop every match when there's a medical situation in the crowd? If you've got tens of thousands of people attending a match you are going to get this happening regularly. As long as they can get the medical attention they need then there's no need to stop the match.

Will agree, ball was barely in play, Watford had couple of chances. Watford injury then the medical emergency...

Is it me or do these incidents with heart attacks seem to be happening more frequently at football matches?
It happens quite a bit but it's only this season they stop the match for it.

It might be that we're more aware of it because (a) there's more televised games and (b) critical events such as this are more likely to suspend a game, whereas a few years ago the match might continue and the event going unannounced to the watching person.

It’s out of respect for the victim. What if he dies while the play continues?

I think it's more likely that in the past whenever it happened it was dealt with without interrupting the game. It would be strange if during all these years and so many games across all the globe it never happened until this year.

Come on, really.

Can't have cpr going on in the crowd if someone has an MI! Need get them out of the ground to hospital ASAP.

Better to stop the game if its a heart attack for sure.

Alonso pointed to the person and the Chelsea trainers went into the stands to assist the person.
