    An invincible for Arsenal. Very underrated player at his peak. RIP.

    Did he score against us for Arsenal?
    I have a memory of him doing so but could be wrong. 
    RIP
    Scored twice against us according to SoccerBase

    Once at the Valley when they won 1-0 with Danny Murphy being sent off, the other time @ Highbury when Arsenal won 4-0 (Henry scored the backheel in the same game)

    I always thought that backheel goal was in the 5-3 defeat a few years earlier!

    Mad how the years play tricks on you

    RIP Reyes

    Second division games this weekend here postponed until Tuesday as mark of respect. Reyes' final game was against Alcorcon for Extremadura two weeks ago. The country is in complete shock as a reaction to his death; he was well-loved, and played for three of the biggest teams in the country as well as the national team in their recent golden era. Big outpouring of grief here for a very popular but down to earth guy.

    Three young kids, how sad they'll grow up without him there.  Also saw another member of his family died in the car, not sure what relative.  Really horrific for the family, RIP both.

    It was his cousin that died with him, and another person travelling with them is in critical condition with 60% burns. The crash looked absolutely horrific.

    Terrible news - RIP.

    But, there was a piece on the Spanish news this morning. He was driving at 237 km per hour on a Street with a 120 kmph limit. He had a puncture, hit a wall and the car caught fire. It's terrible that a younglife was cut short, but thanks to his speeding, his cousin is also dead, and another cousin in the hospital, pronouce grave but stable. Some people think 'it'll never happen to me' and take others with them.

    Idiotic to be travelling at that speed. 147 miles per hour. Crazy.

    If the speed thing is true I dont feel sorry for him anymore in fact I think he is a BLEEP, I now only feel sorry for his family.

    What kind of BLEEP does that when you have 3 young kids

    If he was driving at such a high speed its hard to feel any sympathy particularly when it resulted in the death of a passenger.

    just seen the news about him driving at those speeds.  Tragic, but so reckless.

    Had Reyes survived he would soon be serving time for manslaughter. But, instead, he paid the ultimate price for his stupidity and has left three children without a dad. Equally, his cousins didn't deserve to be victims of his recklessness. 

    Some people really do not understand the implications of driving too fast until something like this happens.
