Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has given his support to Fabrice Muamba following Sunday's FA Cup win against Stoke City.

The Bolton Wanderers midfielder is currently in a critical condition after he collapsed during his side's match at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

Medical staff attempted to resuscitate the 23-year-old before he was taken to the Heart Attack Centre of London's Chest Hospital.

"I am sure everyone feels great sympathy for the boy but we cannot be feeling as bad as what his family must be feeling," said Dalglish.

"It must be horrific for them to be either listening or watching the game and see something like that happen and we hope he has a very speedy recovery.

"He has a lot of people on his side. Although there is great rivalry between various clubs and supporters, he has the whole of football on his side.

"We will keep our fingers crossed that everything goes as well as can be expected."

An update on Muamba's condition may be made later this evening.
