Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted December 30, 2019 I'm not picking him in 2020 (spoiler), but something tells me his cancer is a lot more progressed than he's letting on. He claimed it was only at stage 2 when caught, but the amount of tribute shows I'm seeing to him on Italian TV and sports press... I wouldn't be at all shocked if he goes next year.

Deathray 2,940 Posted December 30, 2019 Judging by Hares entries, there's a lot of DDP players throwing things at the wall upon seeing someone started a thread for this guy.... This is why I never started threads on people after opening the entries, but seen as someone else has. He's a goner in 2020 certainly..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted April 12, 2020 The cancer could come back later in the year so I wouldn’t completely write him off (relapses occur a lot). But for now he’s much healthier. And hope it stays that way for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,966 Posted May 14, 2020 His cancer fight was actually two separate fights: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8314603/Chelsea-legend-Gianluca-Vialli-admits-feels-fragile-twice-beating-pancreatic-cancer.html Similar situation with Lars Hogh by the way. They seem to be doing okay for now, and yet, death is waiting around the corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
