[edit] Kleines Dickes Müller?

Is this nickname really widespread enough to be in the opening paragraph? I must have watched dozens of football matches featuring Gerd Müller, back when I was growing up in Germany, and I cannot recall this nickname ever being used. (As opposed to "Bomber der Nation", which was very widely used.)--24.82.175.172 22:10, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

This nickname was given to Müller by his coach Zlatko Čajkovski--ARN, 2 September 2006

[edit] Ronaldo

"...when it was broken by Brazil's Ronaldo on June 27, 2006 playing against Ghana Republic Team, who has played in four World Cups and scored in three."

The four World Cups being 1994, 1998, 2002, and 2006. But in the 1994 Cup (held in the USA) he never played -- he stayed in the bench all games. Shouldn't it read "played and scored in three World Cups"? JCCyC 22:11, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Der Bomber

I changed the opening sentence with Gerd "Der Bomber" Müller because he is known by this alias, and because his full name is already listed to the right. This is good for those who wish to know his nick name and full name (for full name they just glance on the list to the right).
