So fucking sad and so young.

Puts tonight into perspective.

Awful news, which puts a few things into perspective.

RIP.

Ah man, RIP Jose.

I don’t think I was ever more excited by a young Arsenal player than him in the 04/05 season. That game and goal against Boro is probably one of the Arsenal moments that really stick out for me in the memory banks.

Very sad!
RIP Jose and condolences to his family.

Good grief. One of my favourite Arsenal players there were very few I wanted to see succeed like him. RIP

Reminds me of a great time when the club had cojones. We had added Lehman, were going for an unbeaten season, and then pulled in a youngster who had just terrorized Real Madrid. And he had all the talent in the world. Condolences to his family and Extremadura clan

Wow this is really shocking and sad news. I can't believe it.

He was an immense talent. That first few months for us was amazing. Its a pity he never settled here properly he could have really helped us transition better after the Invincibles.

And I'll stick this here as its the first thing that sprang to mind when I was remembering him.

First of all condolences to his family, unbelievable at his age and wealth, with so much to look forward too.

Secondly, he was apart of the last Arsenal team which tried to show ambition. That was 15 years ago.

This is so horrifying and heartbreaking.

Talent-wise Reyes was as good as anyone I ever saw at Arsenal. He never quite managed to deliver on all that potential but I always had a soft spot for him. It's so fucking unfair that life should end for him at such a young age.

Shocking news. I feel like crying. He was my favourite Arsenal player back in those days till Arshavin came.

He had so so so much talent. Life is so unfair. Till now he is still our consecutive assist and goals record holder. I dont think we will ever have another player so good with crossing and cross field passes. RIP LEGEND

Its Reyes!!! Stand up for the champions. 😢

Would be hard not to shed a tear watching that goal vs Boro now. Heartbreaking on so many levels.

RIP. Such sad news

An exciting talent. Leaves us with great memories.
