i believe the 117 appearances is at all levels for Argentina so KIB would be correct.
What sort of half-wit assesses Riquelme’s performances by saying he only ever once broke 10 league goals? A moron who either never saw him play outside the World Cup or a moron who just doesn’t understand football? Probably a bit of both.
You’re correct. This wiki lark is more complicated that it first appears.
Riquelme is better than Messi so if that’s the case.
Meant to add this in the other day.

He used to play in behind the strikers and then one day they had no central striker so they played him up front and won game after game. He suddenly became the topscorer in Italy as a central striker. That means this guy has absolutely everything. He has a fantastic protection of the ball, he has a quick turn and then he has a very good pass in the final third of the pitch. He can be deadly with every single pass. He will certainly be the most dangerous provider in the final third for them in this game.

A great bit of stuff
For hes a jolly good fellow, and so say all of us!
Fuck it, there could never be enough of the great mans videos. Oh and it’s his birthday
Documentary about Totti starting on Sky Docs at 12.30. About 2hrs long. Soz for late alert.
Caught the tail end of a Clint doc there that looked interesting, did you watch it?
I did. He likes to keep working. Some body of work across various genres after him.
While, for the purpose of the doc he exudes an avuncular air, I’d say he hasn’t much time for spoofers.
@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy there is a charity/exhibition type game on in Milan right now. The great Francesco Totti is playing. I have it on eleven sports.
I regularly thank the gods I was alive to witness Totti and Diego
