[edit] Section on player in action

Would a section on "player in action" be appropriate, showcasing the pictures taken during Liverpool matches in which Xabi Alonso, the great ball passer, plays in? --chapter1 09:20, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] External links

please see Talk:Steven Gerrard for my opinions on fansite listings. Basically I don't think this is the place to advertise your shrine to a particular player, unless your site has something incredibly useful to offer (a forum doesn't count). If you wish to have you fansite considered by the general wikipedia community, please list it here first before adding it to the page. Thanks, aLii 18:18, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Goal from within own half

Came to update with Xabi's goal from his own half tonight (some scamp got there first!). It got me thinking though - the last 2 goals he has scored for Liverpool have been from within his own half (if memory serves). I wonder if that is a first?

Not the sort of thing you would expect is easy to find out, but if so I think it could be noteworthy.

[edit] Pronunciation

There's an error in your information. In Basque we don't pronounce "Chabi", we say "Shabi". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.93.21.99 (talk • contribs) 23:56, 11 August 2006.

[edit] Wierd

Is it just my browser or is the section that ought to read

"Alonso arrived at Liverpool from Real Sociedad in August 2004." read "Alonso arrived at Liverpool from Real Sociedad in August 2009"??

In the edit section it says 2004, but at the review page it reads 2009... Whats the problem???

It sounds like you're reading an old version of the page, it looks as it should ("2004") now. Poulsen 11:01, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
