Just seen the announcement at the end of Goals On Sunday. Couldn't quite believe it. He was a great professional and player throughout his career. Thoughts and prayers go out to the families. R.I.P.

p.s. Sky Sports have just said that a minutes silence will be observed before kick-off in the Swansea v Aston Villa game. Lovely tribute Swans.
