Talk:Heurelho Gomes

Footballer?
The article says that Gomes is a footballer. I think this is quite vague and it should say that he's a goalkeeper. It's more specific and in football we usually differentiate between the fieldplayers and the goalkeeper given the totally different tasks and skills.

Gomes died this morning, somebody needs to update it properly.

Patently false. Any such event would be all over the media and it is not. Please do not add misleading information-- Club Oranje Talk 19:16, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

The article is out of date
"In the following seasons, PSV progressed each time from the group stage." This line is wrong. PSV didn't progress this season (2007-2008). This shows why it's important to write in an encyclopedial style. Pieter pietersen (talk) 14:15, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Criticism of the board and chairman of PSV
Shouldn't this be "Criticism at the board and chairman of PSV"? Gomes critisize the board, the board never critisized Gomes. No offence to the writer, it's easier to find errors than to write it yourself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pieter pietersen (talk • contribs) 14:18, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

POV tag
This is about tag cleanup. As all of the tags are more than a year old, there is no current discussion relating to them, and there is a great deal of editing done since the tags were placed, they will be removed. This is not a judgement of content. If there is cause to re-tag, then that of course may be done, with the necessary posting of a discussion as to why, and what improvements could be made. This is only an effort to clean out old tags, and permit them to be updated with current issues if warranted.Jjdon (talk) 20:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

This gives his height at 6 ft 5

"Heurelho Gomes stands 6ft 5in"

Cruzeiro league games.
On his Spurs profile he has only played 57 games, where did the other 2 come from to make 59 in the article? Govvy (talk) 19:24, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Notable achievements
Gomes achieved a great amount while at PSV. He has the record for highest percentage of clean sheets in the Eredivisie, with him keeping a clean sheet in 60% of his league for PSV. He also scored a volleyed chip against Feyenoord which made him the first goalkeeper to score in the Eredivisie for 6 years. In his first season in Holland, Gomes went 16 hours and 11 minutes without conceding a goal. In the same season, Gomes went on another run without conceding any goals, this time he did not concede a goal in 817 minutes. In his third season, 2006–07, he had again a notable streak. Gomes did not concede in 956 minutes, which eventually played a huge part in PSV's surprise capture of the championship title. PSV won the 2006–07 title, after having the same amount of points as Ajax, but PSV finished first due to a better goal difference (+50, against +49 for Ajax). Even though those were very impressive stints, it wasn't enough to break the record of Heinz Stuy, who set the record in 1971 with 1082 minutes. Gomes did set a record, though, when in the 2007–08 season he kept a clean sheet in his first 5 games.

Criticism of the board and chairman of PSV
Gomes stated in several media outlets that he would not mind staying at PSV until the end of his career. In December 2007, however, Gomes stated in the Dutch magazine Voetbal International that he had lost trust in PSV. He also criticized the trainer situation. Ronald Koeman, who went to Valencia, was replaced by Jan Wouters, who stepped aside for Sef Vergoossen in January 2008. He in turn was replaced by Huub Stevens in the summer of 2008. In addition, Gomes criticized the way Vergoossen had treated youngster Ismaïl Aissati, saying that Vergoossen was too hard on the young midfielder and that he did not get the trust that he needs. The conflict started when Gomes could have signed a contract until 2011, but the offer was withdrawn when the Brazilian was about to sign.
