[edit] Sections Please!

Can somebody break this article into several sections, to make for easier reading?

[edit] Everton

Strong rumours he will move there if not in Jan in the summer in the britsh press. Should this be on the main page?

REPLY - Yes it should, he will be joining them in the Summer for a reported £8million.

[edit] Table of goals...

Is it really redundant to have a table of goals per season?

The current scheme has only goals per team, so if the player stays 3 seasons in one team we know how many matches and goals he had in those 3 years, but not for the season specifically.

Options are:

  1. Keep both (table, and infobox)
  2. Put the data in the info-box season by season
  3. loose the data and have lees information.

Is it ok if I go with 3? Is it really that relevant? --Sebastian Kessel Talk 15:55, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] National team

Roman's first match in the national team wasn't in 2004, but in 1999. May be in the American cup, or before, but not in 2004. The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fran loyd (talk • contribs) 14 January 2006, 22:52.

You're right, hi played at the 1999 Copa America. [1] Mariano(t/c) 09:13, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Romy, Roman, Riquelme

Can we use 'Riquelme' instead of 'Romy' and 'Riquelme'? It's inconsistent. Maybe add a "He's affecionately known as Romy" etc. And any idea why/when he changed from putting 'Riquelme' to 'Roman' on his jersey? And is it important enough to reflect that on the page?

[edit] POV

The paragraph on unfair pressure on him to perform leading to the loan move sound rather POV. I edited it slightly to get rid of that. But I don't really have the facts leading to the move. Is it poor form, inability to fit into tactical system, too many players who can play in the same position etc?

I have also had to edit some of the obvious POV in this article, most blatant bit was where it said the main reason Argentina became joint favourites in the World cup 2006 was because of Riquelme Mr. mister 16:07, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Boca Loan

Can somebody add his Boca Loan info.. Good info on his fall from grace here..

The end is nigh for a player unable to cross great divide
