Talk:Christian Vieri

message: the page should divide into  Vieri (Disambiguation) or introduced Vieri is a surname used in Italy
& pages introduce Christian Vieri brother , Maxi and his father Roberto , which both are professional footballer.
BUT not redirect the term Vieri to Christian Vieri
"Vieri is still considered Italy's greatest striker over the past decade,"
does this really belong in the article? he's clearly ONE OF the greatest, his goalscoring record speaks for itself, but i doubt that if you sat down with a big crowd of serie a/italian fans that they would be overwhelmingly in support of him over and above Del Piero, Zola, Totti, Chiesa, Inzaghi etc. i am therefore changing the sentence to read "Vieri is generally considered one of Italy's greatest strikers of recent times despite strong competition". this gives a fairer picture of Vieri's talent in the scheme of things while adknowledging that holding down a regular place for italy is no small feat.
:As striker he was undoubtly the best. Look at his score record in the World Cup, for example.--Spunti 18:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I believe these references need to be removed.81.144.232.162 (talk) 11:29, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: I have requested semi-protection for the page; hopefully this can be settled one way or another, but I agree, at the moment it doesn't seem like the transfer is official.  Cocytus [»talk«] 17:36, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Update: the request was denied, but we should still hammer this out.  Are there any reliable sources for the move to Botafogo?  I haven't seen any yet.  If there aren't, it probably shouldn't be added until one (or preferably both) parties confirm this move.  Cocytus [»talk«] 17:56, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Vieri could not have played for WSW between 1988–89 as the club did not exist then. This article from 2012 suggests he just played for Marconi, whilst this article states that he in fact returned to Italy in 1988 for "local youth sides in Tuscany". This article further provides some proof of him moving to Italy after age 14, so should it be assumed that he played for Santa Lucia from 1988? I have not found any contiguous evidence for his youth career to explain the current list but am curious as to its sourcing. WDM10 (talk) 09:03, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
