It's good to see mental health being taken seriously in football.

Wishes for a quick recovery.

Mental health issues should be treated as seriously as physical issues and injuries. If you’re not fit to play, you shouldn’t play. Happy to see Burnley take a positive stance on this.

Lennon in 2017 at Everton had a crisis and now helps others, slowly getting their with mental health, he also helps others now with it

By the same token fans shouldn’t be slated for preferring players that don’t have mental health issues.
