[edit] Youth Teams
Surely has hasn't been playing for the Gremio youth side ever since he was 5 years old?
- I wouldn't doubt it. Clubs routinely pick up children around that age. Cricketseven (talk) 23:44, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Work Permit issues
2 reasons why I think this does not belong:
1) All we have in the citation is a tabloid paper making what appear to be speculative comments. AFAIK, the Home Office are not in the habit of leaking reports of the state of progress of work permit applications: they simply release the result of their deliberations at the end of the process. No spokesperson from the Home Office or from Manchester Utd is quoted: we appear to have no more than journalistic speculation.
2) Even if this is true (and it seems quite likely to me, although that is not sufficient for inclusion), and the journalist's word is taken as proof; I would contend that Wiki should not be the place for day to day reports on the progress of a transfer. This is the route to extremes of recentism. There is an extent to which this project needs to be up to date: it would not be reasonable for the page not to report that moves towards a transfer are well advanced and in the public domain, but details of the stage of such negotiations are the material of news reports, not encyclopedias.

I concur. Hjorten 16:08, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
- I also provide my support. Recentism is the buzzword that comes to mind. I'm almost tempted to remove the sentence on his proposed future transfer from the lead section, to be honest. --Dreaded Walrus t c 23:34, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
And again editors seem determined to include lengthy reflections on the obtaining of a work permit. By the time he has played 2 or 3 games for Man U (assuming that he does now jointhem) this will be forgotten. Although it is a necessary stage, it is not a major biographical element; one may as well describe in detail the compilation of an individual's tax returns: it is necessary, and one's career might be very different if it is not done, but it is scarcely a key life event.

[edit] Transfer fee
I removed the part saying the fee was 17 million pounds, there was no mention of that in the reference given. I have linked to lequipe.fr where if you scroll through to the section on Anderson it confirms the price of the transfer at 25m euros. 58.167.198.107 09:23, 13 July 2007 (UTC)Rusty8.
[edit] Rape allegation
A Manchester United star aged 19 (believed to be Anderson was arrested on suspicion of rape at the Manchester United party.
Watch this space he is yet to be named but the rumour on the forums is its him, guilty or not—Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.211.18.167 (talk • contribs)
- Not even close. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/7151624.stm

[edit] Anderson remarks
I solembly and contriversally believe that Anderson has had a few disregardable cognuntageous personal comments put towards his name and should be removed adderingly from the local wikipedia premise and authority. i hope action is taken to fragolicantly benefit our sophisticated and loyal partnership community. Thank you
