Is this enough clean-up, or is there something more specific that needs to be addressed? -Aabha 14:51, 17 November 2005 (UTC)Reply

I am going to address his return to Ajax, and the Holland 1990 remarks which are of the mark.


Vieira edit

Someone put in: "Ironically it was Rijkaard's presence that forced Vieira to leave Milan for Arsenal in search of more playing time." I've removed it since Vieira arrived at Milan in the 1995/96 season when Rijkaard had already retired (after leaving for Ajax in mid 1993). Divad 13:55, 2 December 2005 (UTC)Reply


insecure edit

frank is mad barcelona are cheats and are divers

This is not the place for such comments, an encyclopedia deals with fact, try a football message board or foram (Ken 22:37, 13 May 2006 (UTC))Reply

jojo edit

it first says Rijkaard is of Surinamese descent and than it says that he is of African descent. Surinam is NOT in Africa, but in South America. Needs updating.

one can be both of surinamese and african descent

wc 2006 edit

is he acting as an asst coach for this world cup? i saw him on the sidelines in today's match against portugal (in a white polo like the other coaches, etc). just curious. --74.65.173.130 20:26, 25 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Dubious Information edit

Caps and goal figures in the article likely contain European cup/Domestic cup data in addition to Domestic League data (this is very certain based on this user's previous edits containing similar information [1]. Please correct this issue and leave a note here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alfmaster#Footballers.27_European_goals, to warn this person about putting improper information on Wikipedia. --Palffy 21:16, 25 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Updated using Cv - and added the link to external links section. Poulsen 12:52, 9 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Birthplace? edit

Was he definately born in Amsterdam? The article in Paramaribo says that he was born there. Clearly someone is wrong! --Gavinio 11:41, 8 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Character edit

I find the article to err a little on the tendentious side, with multiple references to Rijkaard's 'quick temper' as a player. In the Netherlands at least, he was seen as a gentlemanly, soft-spoken person already during his playing career, and the Völler-incident was viewed as being very much out of character. So to attribute this to him as a character trait on the basis of one incident seems a tad unfair. Robbert o154 (talk) 17:09, 13 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Why edit

Anyone knows why a professional footballer spit another professional footballer (behind his back)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.3.224.9 (talk) 13:38, 30 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

DWS edit

He also played for the Amsterdam football club DWS together with his friend Rudi Gullit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.249.26.81 (talk) 10:22, 11 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

The spitting incident... edit

...is described twice. GregorB (talk) 19:01, 8 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

For many fans, the spitting incident is what Rijkaard will be remembered for (much like Zidane's head butt). To call it "unsavory" seems a bit mild. Offensive? Disgusting? He twice spat on Voller, provoking him to the point where he too was booked, and then as the two players were leaving the pitch Rijkaard spat on Voller a third time. Sorry, but whether Rijkaard likes it or not, that kind of behavior - on an international stage - isn't easily forgotten or overlooked. 2.205.167.33 (talk) 15:46, 22 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Sporting and Real Zaragoza edit

If he played for Sporting CP and Real Zaragoza, why are these clubs not included in the infobox? – PeeJay 14:22, 2 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Managerial history, possible correction edit

The main page states "Under his leadership, the club was relegated to the second division for the first time in its history, and he was consequently sacked.". However, in Sparta Rotterdam it's written as "That made Rijkaard resign from his position.[1]"
