Definitely good news.

Fabrice Muamba is "showing small signs of improvement" according to a joint statement from Barts hospital and Bolton Wanderers. Associated Press is also reporting that a friend says the midfielder is speaking again.

The midfielder remains in intensive care after suffering a cardiac arrest during Bolton's FA Cup sixth-round tie at Tottenham on Saturday night, but the London chest hospital said that, while he is still in a critical condition, there are small reasons to be optimistic.

A Bolton statement read: "His heart is now beating without the help of medication and he is also moving his arms and his legs.

"However, his long-term prognosis will remain unclear for some time. He is still critically ill and will continue to be closely monitored and treated by staff in the London chest hospital's intensive care unit."

"Fabrice Muamba and Owen Coyle have 'brief' conversation"

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17447938

Bolton manager Owen Coyle says he has held a "brief" conversation with Fabrice Muamba for the first time since the midfielder had a cardiac arrest.

The 23-year-old was left fighting for his life at the London Chest Hospital after collapsing during Wanderers' FA Cup tie against Tottenham on Saturday.

"There's still a long way to go but that's really positive," said Coyle.

"Where we all were on Saturday night, at this stage I would certainly never have envisaged this improvement."

Keep on Fighting Fabrice....
