"You don't expect a professional footballer to have heart problems. It's totally unexplained. It could happen to anyone at any given time. It makes you think about life in general and appreciate every day you wake up. [Fabrice is] a fantastic player and a pleasure to play with. He's a workhorse. Off the pitch he's second to none as a person. I just keep remembering his smile. He'd light up a room just walking into it with his massive grin."
