Horrible news. And at his age too. All the best for a speedy recovery!

Scheisse.

Wishing Dylan a full and speedy recovery!

Hell, I had Leukemia at 16 months of age and sure, it neary killed me but I beat it (with the help of medical science) in the end. It wasn't so much the cancer itself but the treatment for it that nearly got me (Radiotherapy + Chemo) but thankfully that has come a long way since I had mine in the mid 80's.

Unfortunate news, but the type he has is very treatable when it's caught early so he should be fine tbh. :)

I hope there is a moments silence at todays game for him.

I think we all expected it to be a bump in the road of his life and career.

Let it be a wake up call to us all

So incredibly sad. Really makes me consider the way I live my own life in the way I take everyday for granted.

I heard there will be a minute of applause at the 38th minute for Dylan. 38 was his number at West Ham.
Time to Djbate!
