I saw the news this morning on here, then was in meetings all day in London with a feeling of numbness over me, it was only when I heard it described in words on the radio that it really sunk in. It felt more real then and I broke down.
Such a devastating tragedy, he was clearly such a good man with a fantastic football attitude, always 100% and always would give a bit back.
That game at St. Andrews where they thought they could kick him out the game, but he just gave it back was one of my favourites, it showed what kind of man he was.
And then those hat tricks in Europe and against Leicester, his part in Raul's goal at White Hart Lane and of course that goal against United that sent us ALL wild.
But not only that, he had a superb attitude to life, marrying his long term girlfriend, his love for his children so clear, and those geeky qualities of being the no.1 at FIFA in the world and playing Football Manager just like I would as a young kid.
He was a good guy.
Rest in peace Diogo.
