I think the reference to the rumour Van Der Sar may be cheating on his wife should be removed- it's libelous, and totally unsupported. I can't seem to do it though- it doesn't appear on the edit page, just in the article itself. Does it need a moderator or something?AM Glen19:53, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, that wasn't it, but it's been removed now anyway. i guess someone else reverted it.AM Glen20:00, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah i think it should be removed because the Dutch press did not confirm anything like that and it was just a speculation neither did he or his wife comment on it.User:Maverick thatsme 12:12, 1 May 2007(UTC)
"He is one of the most identifiable keepers in Europe because of his height (1.97 m/6' 5½")."All keepers are big! Why is 1.97 m remarkable!
shay given???1m and same of mm
Chris Kirkland is at least two inches shorter than Edwin van der Sar. Kirkland's height is mostly noted as 6'3"/191cm.Volkovtalk16:19, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
"That save gave Arjen Robben the chance to win the game for the Netherlands and hand them their first victorious shootout ever."
"During the penalty shootout at the end of the Euro 2004 quarter-final against Sweden, van der Sar saved a penalty from Olof Mellberg. That save gave Arjen Robben the chance to win the game for the Netherlands. That puts him in the top fifty most capped players of all time."-???
To the person who reverted my edit (86.133.35.212): Edwin van der Sar is referred to as VDS by Man Utd fans, just as Ruud Van Nistelrooy was referred to as RVN. Either explain why VDS isn't a valid nickname or stop removing it from the article.Kronix198601:53, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Is the surname with a capital V when written separately? The article uses both forms.--Svetovid00:26, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have a picture that has full permission from the photographer to be used on this page, infact he is quite excited about it being used. I am not able to upload it myself, can anyone else do this?

Uh, no, it isn't fake, actually. It is in fact a photo from the 'War' Dutch national team photoshoot taken by Erwin Olaf (a respected photographer, I might add) in 2008, and if you're still not convinced, you can watch a video of that very photo being taken over here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aW8Qgz7of8.

I Edwin van der Sar the only goalkeeper to win the Champions League with two different clubs? I couldn't think of anyone else.—Precedingunsigned comment added by85.5.187.219 (talk)20:31, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Clarence Seedorf has won it with 3 different clubs.
can we get something straight here? chris woods has come out and said that van der sar HAS NOT beaten his record, as chris woods record of 1196 mins is in ALL COMPETITIONS (as he played a couple of cup games within his record) and therefore van der sar needs another FEW games to beat this record, due to him losing that goal in japan... fair enough. so if van der sar's record is for league games only, then he did not beat chris woods. it would also bring bobby clark of aberdeen into the frame, who held the world record at 20hours 46 mins, which is 1246mins, so even van der sar doesn't beat that!! seeafc site for the info. how do we find out what is correct?? seechris's page which states "From November 1986 to January 1987, Woods set a British record by playing 1196 consecutive minutes of competitive football without conceding a goal". there's also a few news websites carrying the story from chris woods disputing the claims! so again, who is right, and how do we really find out the truth???77.97.18.22 (talk)00:32, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Quote:1,390 minutes, Dany Verlinden, Club Brugge KVVerlinden won five Belgian titles with the 'Blauw-Zwart' in a 16-year spell between 1988 and 2004, and once held the record – later broken by Alessandro Costacurta – for being the oldest player in the UEFA Champions League. He was 40 years, three months and 24 days old when he featured against AFC Ajax in December 2003. His claim to fame, though, remains this incredible run which spanned 16 matches from 3 March 1990 to 26 September 1990.77.97.18.22 (talk)00:45, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As for the world record, that belongs toGeraldo Pereira de Matos doesn't it? Surely his 1816 minutes is more than Abel Resino's 1275—Precedingunsigned comment added by77.160.15.230 (talk)20:10, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
According to the Manchester United website, Edwin van der Sar now holds the record for the most minutes without conceding a goal in British league football, with 1,212 minutes. The previous record was held by Bobby Clark of Aberdeen, who didn't concede for 1,155 minutes in 1970–71. (http://www.manutd.com/default.sps?pagegid={F9E570E6-407E-44BC-800F-4A3110258114}&redirectorid=news_story&newsid=6626680)
How should the record coming to an end be written... The record as I understood was consecutive minutes in the League (as he did not play in games like the Champions league, FA Cup, League Cup), and not as he didnt play yesterday his record was broken by not playing... Some report Man Utd's record to be 1333 minutes some 1334 minutes in the Premier League without conceding. (And no the record is not still on because he didnt play, it breaks the consecutive part, a goalie can't be substituted on in the 80th minute of 100 games and claim a 1000minute consecutive clean sheet record.) —CHANDLER#10 —19:49, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Actuallyhttp://live.skysports.com/LiveCentre/teamtalk/live.html does mention that van der sar's record is over. Go to that paticular game and scroll down to the text just below the 1 minute text.Syjytg (talk)10:23, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Seeing those statistics, I, as a non-soccer fan, have no clue as to what this "Apps" is supposed to mean. Could anyone enlighten me or edit the page with an explaination?80.101.171.2 (talk)01:51, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
He's only retired from international football, not club football. If he's retired from the latter, I'd like to see some proof before we put it back in the article.-66.159.118.18 (talk)15:37, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi all,
Van der Sar - 2nd paragraph:Van der Sar was named bestEuropean goalkeeper in1995, 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Casillas - When clicking on the link "Best European Goalkeeper" in the 2nd paragraph of Van der Sar you will see that the list is showingIker Casillas as winner in2009 and 2010. Casillas' Wikipedia page says he won the price for best goalkeeper in Europe in2008 and 2010, rather inconsistent.The Real Madrid website shows that Casillas won the award in2008 and 2009. The inconsistency is complete.Sourcve:http://www.realmadrid.com/cs/Satellite/en/1193041476158/1193041476328/jugador/Jugador/Casillas.htm
Could someone find out who won the award for best European goalkeeper in the last 5 years?

Regarding his experience in Italy is written: "The following season, Van der Sar helped Juventus finish 2 points behind eventual champions A.S.

I check pages listed inCategory:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content fororphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some ofEdwin van der Sar's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct forthis article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
