Talk:Marcos Rojo

Height
How tall is he really? Currently it says 1.98 m, which must be vandalism.

Soccerbase says 1.85 m : http://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=58358

Whoscored says 1.87 m : http://www.whoscored.com/Players/70050/Show/Marcos-Rojo

Goal says 1.87 m: http://www.goal.com/en/people/argentina/28614/m-rojo/national

Espn says 1.87 m: http://www.espnfc.com/player/129426/marcos-rojo

Transfermarkt (unreliable) says 1.89 m: http://www.transfermarkt.com/marcos-rojo/profil/spieler/93176

I will change it to 1.87 m for now. Cashewnøtt (talk) 13:54, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Plays for Manchester United (Transfer went through this morning)

Comment: Not really. Still subject to medical and signing of contract. We should wait for the announcement from Manchester United. Cashewnøtt (talk) 07:19, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Not done: Same as other player transfers, wait for official confirmation of transfer from either club before editing. Agreed fee, pending medical and contract terms, or even something said by the player on social media do not qualify official completion of transfer. Only an official club statement by Sporting or Manchester United will do. LRD NO (talk) 16:02, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Not done: Manchester United's official announcement states that
 * "Manchester United is delighted to announce it has reached an agreement with Sporting Lisbon to sign defender Marcos Rojo, subject to a medical and agreeing personal terms.
 * A further announcement will be made when the process is complete."

What we have from both clubs is that a fee has been agreed. The transfer has not been completed yet. Wait for Man Utd's next statement, which probably won't be long anyway. LRD NO (talk) 00:26, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Gols at Sporting?
The Stats and Text do not agree. How many goals did he score at Sporting? Text says 6. Stats box says 5. 201.231.129.119 (talk) 17:55, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * That's because the infobox only counts league goals. The text agrees with the stats table near the bottom of the article. – PeeJay 19:00, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I see. One is a cup goal.
