Talk:Freddie Ljungberg

message: Ljungberg played European matches in Halmstad, for example against Parma in the UEFA Cup Winner's Cup in 1995. I'm 100% sure of that, but unfortunately I don't know if he played in more matches (but I think so) so I will not be able to update the table. He must have played against Newcastle in the UEFA Cup in 1996 too, right? If someone knows more in detail, please fill it in.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.115.2.197 (talk) 08:12, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

text: You dont seem to understand the policies of fair use, we have a free image, that means you dont use a non-free fair use one to replace it. You don't have to have a picture from yesterday. It's not a outdated picture, it's not 20 year old, he's appearance has not changed etc... So how is it outdated? Players don't have to have picture of them playing. But even on that, him in a Sweden shirt is hardly out of order just because he's retired.  chandler ··· 05:55, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, he's not actually retired yet.  I agree that we should probably only replace a free image with another free image (though I don't think that's policy is it?).  Mattyc04, why don't you add the fair use photo to the article for now near the Sounders FC section.  I don't think anyone will object to that for now.  Someone from Seattle will eventually provide a high quality, free image of him in a Sounders FC uniform I expect that will satisfy Chandlers's concerns. --SkotywaTalk 06:18, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

*Support - this is the name he uses on his shirt, is most commonly called by in the English-speaking world (and press), and it is what his official teamsheet says. Per WP:COMMONNAME, can we just move it to Freddie already? –  Toon(talk) 14:59, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

text: You expect him to have "Freddie Ljungberg" on this shirt? He's used "Ljungberg" for all of his career. — chandler — 22:31, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, good spot! I still had the Alves argument in my head :) –  Toon(talk) 22:41, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think he'd say Fredrik if you asked him for his name, because Freddie is just a nickname. I don't know if Arsenal called him Fredrik or Freddie, but as I've said, he's always officially called Fredrik by FIFA, UEFA, the national team and even West Ham, which for me that bears more weight.  — chandler — 02:24, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

message: I know there are past discussions on this, but I just think the article title will get people thinking his name is actually "Freddie", it should be Fredrik. There is no other footballer that have a nickname rather than their real name in their article titles. Mohamed Salah is not "Mo Salah" for example. It just seems a bit unserious. Chronicler87 (talk) 09:04, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: WP:COMMONNAME applies here.  There are countless of examples of biographies, not just those of footballers, that are titled in this way.  Just off the top of my head there's Teddy Sheringham, Bob Hawke, Andy Cole, Bill Clinton.  Your assertion that Ljungberg is the "only player on Wikipedia that has a nickname rather than his real name as article title" is incorrect. Mattythewhite (talk) 14:22, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
