[edit] Rotenberg
Boris Rotenberg (Борис Ротенберг) is in Zenit's squad, see this and this. I'm not sure this spelling of his name is correct though, I have no English-language sources. Conscious 14:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
- OK, Zenit's official site is quite trustworthy. — Anrie Nord 2006-03-25 22:58Z
[edit] Firms
You forget about NORTH BASTION
[edit] Spivak and Horshkov
The situation with these guys is quite complicated, so instead of just changing flags back and forth I suggest that the footnote be improved. So, these players have played for Ukraine in official matches, and thus are not eligible to play for any other national team ever. That's why it makes sense to have Ukrainian flags next to their names (according to their "football nationality", so to speak). Now, they seem to have obtained Russian citizenship (see [1]) because of restrictions on the number of foreign players. So they are citizens of Russia now. AFAIK, to obtain Russian citizenship one must refuse citizenship of any other country, so they shouldn't have Ukrainian citizenship now.
I have tried to improve the footnote; any suggestions? Conscious 12:07, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
- On the Russian version of Zenit on wikipedia, these two players both have the Russian flag listed next to them. Would this be something for consideration concerning the English version?
[edit] Jerseys
I am not quite sure what the situation is but I have seen Zenit play a numebr of their games in light blue jerseys. Could anyone tell me whether these are the home, away or third jerseys. I am pretty sure that the away jerseys are still white though. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Likthem (talk • contribs).
- The facts and figures for the 2006 season (official matches only) are (Source):
- Zenit played 17 home matches in dark blue jerseys, 3 in white, 2 in light blue;
- Zenit played 12 away matches in dark blue jerseys, 10 in white.
- So I'd say that the light blue jerseys are third choice. Conscious 09:11, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
Alright after that Ill agree that the light blue jerseys seem as though they are the third jereys. Likthem
[edit] Dominguez
Alejandro Dominguez is listed on his site as a Striker/Attacking Midfield. I claim that he should be listed as midfield however another says he should be listed as a forward. I need your opinions. Likthem
No need for further investigation. I have checked out the official website and he is listed as a forward. I correct my mistake. Likthem
He is a forward who can also play in midfield.
[edit] RFPL squad list
Zenit have communicated their squad list to the Russian Premier League. It doesn't contain Panov and Hyun, and Dominguez is listed as a midfielder. Conscious 05:59, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Famous players list
While the criteria for inclusion in this list are yet to be established, I think that current players should not be added. And please stop adding Hyun Young-Min, he may be a star elsewhere, but his career it Zenit wasn't too long or successful, with only 17 matches during one season. Conscious 06:39, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
