[Albion] Enock Mwepu (Retired 10/10/2022)

Awful news but as stated at least picked up

 

[Easy 10]

Devasting for the lad, I'm absolutely gutted. He was a player I enjoyed watching, he was developing very nicely and was one of the reasons I wasn't overly fussed about losing Bissouma. The abiding memories will be THAT goal at Anfield - one of the greatest strikes I've ever seen from a player in the stripes.

Just so gutted.

Oh my goodness ... so sad.

Will always remember that goal at Anfield ... less than a year ago. I was right in line to see it curl over Alisson into the net.

Jesus, that's awful news. I loved watching him play, and he is clearly a lovely bloke. I had such high hopes for him.

Poor Enock, I hope he has a happy and fulfilling life in whatever he chooses to do next.

I hope we at least offer him some sort of coaching role while he does his badges, so sorry to hear this news Enock. Wishing the best for you and your family.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Shocked as a supporter…how must the lad feel…may another door open for him soon

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Poor lad

 

[Blackadder]

Very sad news. Certainly puts things into perspective.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

He really was an exciting prospect...

Terrible for the guy, but better to have found it before something catastrophic happened. Sure he’ll be looked after. Best wishes Enock.

 

[Brian Fantana]

Absolutely shocking news. Truly gutted for the lad. As others have said, on his day he was absolutely exceptional - definitely gave us something different in midfield. He always seemed to have a smile on his face too. Considering he was with us for such a short time, he scored two terrific goals. The one at Arsenal last season was such a clean strike.

Perhaps we could organise some sort of e-card/collective best wishes to him from NSC?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

That is such terrible news for him and his family. As a bright, communicative man, hopefully he still has a future in the sport he loves.

Good luck Enoch. So, so disappointed that we won't see you playing at the Amex again.

 

[Marshy]

truly gutted about this, loved watching him play as you could tell he loved playing.

All the best too him.

Wow, thats terrible news. But glad that it has been diagnosed, it could have been worse than terrrible...

Nice gesture from Man City:

If it's possible to be gutted and happy at the same time then that's what I feel.

Nobody not ever will score a better goal than his at Anfield,cross my arse Sourness,enjoy your family Smiler.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Dreadful news, I feel so so sad. I thought the reports around his illness were a bit cryptic but I wasn't expecting this. Thank god the condition was found before it was too late.

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching him, never quite knew exactly what you were going to get which made him even more enigmatic but some moments of absolute brilliance. I'm going to miss his big smile terribly.

 

[Affy]

Such sad news. Seemed a great character and decent player so will certainly be missed but health must come first. Wishing him well and hope he manages to find something within football to keep him with the game in some form. Thank you for your contribution Enoch and best wishes for the future.
