Fabrice Muamba: Roberto Mancini calls for more screening

? Mancini wants biannual screening for players

The Manchester City manager, Roberto Mancini, has demanded twice yearly medical screenings for Premier League players after admitting he was worried not enough is being done to protect them.

"I was really worried on Sunday," said Mancini, following Fabrice Muamba's cardiac arrest during the FA Cup tie at White Hart Lane. "Today I have read he has improved and I am very happy for him and his family. But if you want to know my opinion, it is that here in England, the best championship in the world, everything is fantastic. But we need to improve the medical side for the players.

"We need to screen the players often, maybe two times a year and they have to be more accurate because they don't do this. When I saw our medical two years ago, I was really worried. I said we need to do them better."

There has been no further update on the condition of Muamba since Monday night, when it was confirmed he was able to answer questions and speak in both French and English.
