DANIEL JARQUE: YOU WILL BE MISSED, SPECIAL ONE

Almost everyone on my flist is making a post about Dani, so please forgive me for making one too, but I feel I must. He was one of my favourite defenders in La Liga. He had such an aura of niceness about him even though he was a tough defender, but to me he seemed like someone who would have been a very good friend.

As I am sure his many fans felt. Rest in peace, Dani.

Fans leave tributes.

His girlfriend is eight months pregnant... he would have become a daddy soon. :( This makes me cry.

OMG that is so similar to Antonio Puerta's story! His baby was born in October, and I believe he died in August! It was during the first game of the season in 2007. I remember it so well because we left for a vacation in Spain on September 1st and Antonio had died already. We went to Sevilla and I left a tribute at the stadium for him. :(

This is almost exactly the same thing. And to think Ruben could have suffered the same fate. No wonder they are being so careful with Ruben. Better to stop playing than to risk death. :(

Rubén may not return to play football again. As much as I always wanted him to, after this I don't. He should stay away, he would risk his life. I couldn't watch him play or practice without being worried. He has a family and like he once said, Rubén is more important than De La Red. His baby and family needs him more than any club can.

I agree. I feel the same way, no matter how much I liked Ruben and would like to see him play again!
