Dominic Matteo
« on: November 16, 2019, 10:17:14 am »
Seems he was rushed into hospital on Monday with a brain tumour and had an op to remove it.

Hopefully he makes a full recovery quickly.

Quote
Liverpool FC is sending its support to Dominic Matteo after the former Reds player was taken seriously ill earlier this week.

Matteo, 45, underwent an operation on a brain tumour on Monday and is currently being treated in hospital after coming out of intensive care.

The thoughts of everyone at the club are with Dom, his family and friends and we will be offering our support to them throughout this difficult time.

A popular member of the Liverpool side in the 1990s and a regular pundit and commentator on LFCTV in recent years, Matteo made his debut for the Reds in October 1993.

He went on to become a regular under Roy Evans and later Gerard Houllier for four seasons from 1996-97, making a total of 155 appearances for the club.

Matteo – who also represented Scotland at international level – departed for Leeds United in 2000, where he spent four years, before spells with Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City.

We wish Dom a full and speedy recovery and will offer any support we can to his wife and family.

Dom's family would like to place on record their gratitude to all staff at Leeds General Infirmary and express their thanks for all of the messages of support they have received.

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Really, really pleased for him.

When he came through I was at that age where I lionised all our players and wouldn't hear a bad word about them (a bit like football Twitter but I was a little lad rather than a grown man throwing tantrums).  He and Brad Friedel came to a summer football tournament in 1997 or 1998 and for a few years after that he was on the back of my replica shirt.

When he got called up for Scotland I was amazed that England had let him slip through their fingers in favour of lesser talents like Tony Adams and Sol Campbell!  I still remember my old man trying to reason with me that a Scottish-born defender choosing to play for Scotland wasn't the end of the world.

No idea if he's a sound lad or not but lots of happy memories for me  ;D

His football ability means very little now but still, he was a really underrated player and a genuine nice fella so this is great news.
