Milan Appearances

[edit]

In the "Club" section it states Gattuso made his 300th appearance for A.C Milan against Lille in 2006 but on the club information section below personal information it states his appearances for the club is at 277. I do not know how many appearances he has actually made but thought the point needed bringing up for someone to sort :)

The infobox stats refer to league appearances only. The 23-game discrepancy likely includes cup games, though I can't confirm this at present. - Dudesleeper · Talk 10:28, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Taunting incident?

[edit]

Gattuso's taunting of Poulsen was a trivial incident. Its mention looks out of place in an article that gives a broad overview of Gattuso's career.

I think, if put into the context of his aggressive style of play, the incident demonstrates his massive will to win and aggressive persona on the pitch. Poulsen 11:49, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think it looks out of place, too. Especially if you keep in mind that Poulsen was the one to seriously trouble Kakà in the first leg, thus Gattuso's behaving was more of a reaction. To me, it looks like there are better and less subjective sounding (sorry) arguments to show his will to win and the actions he will take...

I think its fine but we should include how it was Poulsen egging him on so that you can tell that he is very caring and has a big heart for teammates, and looks out for them....obviously in better words -Rapini


Point is, the "Poulsen-incident" can hardly be seen as one-sided as it is presented here. If you think this exact information that necessary to be included in this article, there should be mention of Poulsen's mean taunting of Kaka in the first leg just as well. Kaka couldn't do anything because of Poulsen. Gattuso had to look out for Poulsen so Kaká wouldn't be 'disabled' again. It's perfectly alright to write of the Poulsen-incident, but I think picking out only Gattuso's wrongdoings but not writing about Poulsen's in this very context is a kind of POV. The Growl 23:32, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why was my revision undone? I tried to explain the context for once. It is interesting that the "Poulsen-affair" is considered more important an information about a player who is more and more considered to be one of Europe's best midfielders (cf. e.g. quote by Benitez: "in players like Gattuso and Kaka they have two of the best players in the world"). I do not mean to be POV, and I do not think this additional information was, but I tried to explain sth. from more than only one angle (and this one angle was out of context)! --The Growl 12:09, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're not helping yourself with the "mean taunting of Kaka" above. - Dudesleeper · Talk 12:42, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but because I like how Gattuso plays, I am not allowed to write about sth. I consider POV? I really don't see where I - except in the talk, trying to explain what I mean by "out of context" - wrote POV, when I added the info to the article. It is true, to me, Poulsen taunting Kaka was "mean". But that (my POV) was not what I added to the article. --The Growl 12:49, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You wrote in the article: It can be seen as a reaction to Poulsen's taunting of Kakà in the first leg. This is clearly putting words in other people's mouths. You're not inside Gattuso's head, so you can't know the reasons behind his actions. - Dudesleeper · Talk 13:03, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I get what you mean, thanks. Still, I'd like to explain myself: rest assured that I didn't mean to pretend I knew Gattuso's thoughts. To me, it was plain and simple football tactics. (A reaction to Poulsen, just as Poulsen was cleverly placed as a 'reaction' to Kaka) [Just a thought: In the German wikipedia-section, they had the same argument (if the Poulsen-incident was or was not worth mentioning. I just noticed they finally cut the whole section out. I'd still vote for that.] --The Growl 15:01, 4 May 2007 (UTC) The taunting of Poulsen was not only a reaction to the marking of Kaka. Remember Poulsen got Totti sent off in the 2004 European Championship in Portugal. Afterwards Italy didn't qualify for the next round due to Denmark's draw with Swenden. A draw that was heavily criticised in Italy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.215.110.86 (talk) 21:33, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pizzeria?

[edit]

Is this fact completely accurate? Is there a source for this, it seems a bit fishy.

  • it's true...

Yeah, I guess it is. I read about it in an interview with a German football magazine, a quite alright, matter of fact one, so I'd say the information is true. --The Growl 11:04, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Transfer rumors

[edit]

Gattuso's page is not a place to discuss rumors. I removed a section regarding Gattuso's "transfer to Arsenal". That's totally bogus as there are no reports suggesting that. Please do not put transfer rumors in this page. Especially ones with no citation what-so-ever. If you continue to post these, I will push a complaint against you. Furthermore, if this continues you could be blocked from editing articles. Gcarini (talk) 19:25, 7 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Transfer to Glasgow Rangers

[edit]

I have been on the internet, and neither any major media outlet in Britain or indeed Scotland has picked up on this. There is also no substance to the fact Gattuso's wife "wants to move back to Scotland". Provide proof before editing. Rfcucl1972 23.53, 18 Jul 2010 (GMT)


Vandalism

[edit]

I'm not sure whether describing him as a "miserable cunt" is a NPOV.


-Ha, Spurs fans getting a little uppity I see. Didn't take them very long. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.123.220.57 (talk) 22:11, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Not just Spurs fans who think he's a mardy arsehole... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.107.215.226 (talk) 22:15, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Gattuso is due a ban after headbutting Joe Jordan after the Champions league game againt tottenham hotspur on 15-02-11. During the game he should have been sent off twice for pushing Peter Crouch and then leaving the pitch and assalting Joe Jordan by raising his hand and pushing Jordan in the face. FIFA needs to review his actions and ban him from playing any football for a long time. Lets face it Gattuso's career is pretty much over. he is old, slow and frankly thugs like this have no place in football. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.244.86.9 (talk) 22:34, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi folks, this is not for general discussion of the player, but to discuss changes to the article. I have put in some details and referenced them. Please keep comments brief and towards improving the article :) SirFozzie (talk) 22:56, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thugs like this have no place playing football? Teehee. The funny thing is that you people say things like that and then turn around and extol Joe Jordan halfway to the moon for being a better thug than Gattuso, but a BRITISH one, which means he's a good old hardman with character, not a brainless hothead. Doublethink much? Wannabe rockstar (talk) 15:10, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The absence of Harry Redknapp's "Gattuso obviously hadn’t done his homework. He could’ve picked a fight with somebody else. Putting his head into Joe’s face, it was crazy." quote is a loss although as the section currently stands I'd struggle to fit it in. danno_uk 05:10, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think there would be some good use for a semi-protection to avoid those vandals without a nickname. --MrEskola (talk) 04:47, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bold, revert, discuss - Tottenham

[edit]

What is the problem with saying that Gattuso was being considered by Tottenham, and could it be included if one was to avoid the angle that it was scrapped because of a fan protest? There definitely was interest, as they wouldn't "break off" [1] talks if it never started in the first place. The campaign has been mentioned by BBC, Guardian, ESPN. Certainly the fact of being offered a job so soon after leaving Fiorentina is notable even if the reason it didn't happen isn't fully established. PS I do not agree with this "cancel culture" even though I respect any company's right to hire who they want 2A00:23C5:E187:5F00:E42C:6FD4:593:17BA (talk) 18:50, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oh and Sky [2] Bear in mind this is a club being rejected by just about everyone they want, and they called off advanced negotiations with someone else on the day Gattuso became available, so the interest was clear. 2A00:23C5:E187:5F00:E42C:6FD4:593:17BA (talk) 18:53, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And back home, [3] La Repubblica, I don't really see any reason to not report the bare facts of this story. 2A00:23C5:E187:5F00:E42C:6FD4:593:17BA (talk) 18:57, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CRYSTALBALL. If we were to write about every link every player/manager had with a club, the list would be long and not notable. Wait until we know the facts of official deals. Once that happens, we can have a discussion if the prior links with other clubs is notable given the developed situation. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 22:14, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fiorentina

[edit]

Fiorentina should be removed from his career stats segment, shouldn't it? He signed an agreemment to join them effective Jul 1st, but then the agreement was mutually rescinded two weeks later. So he never actually joined Fiorentina as the contract never actually came into effect.

See WT:FOOTY#Genaro Gattuso at Fiorentina. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 18:49, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Style of play

[edit]

When you say things like he is isn't particularly skilful, this is clearly an opinion. Unless if Wikipedia has a method to work out how to calculate if someone is skillfull or a tough tackling midfielder, then these things should be left out. Besides that, how do you calculate which person's opinion should be put forward and what person's opinion should be left out?

Seriously, this goes against Wikipedia' standards of neutrality, does it not? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marccarran (talkcontribs) 18:32, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
