[edit] Biography assessment rating comment

The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. --KenWalker | Talk 08:41, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


This article needs a re-write. A lot of it seems very p.o.v. and waffly, the second section has no wiki links and his pre-Chelsea career currently consists of one line.

[edit] Duff's Cold Shoulder

A lot of football fans, especially Chelsea, noticed a dramatic change towards the end of Duff's Chelsea career after he suffered a severe shoulder injury. It could be said that, until this point, Damien Duff was renown for his bullish strength when dribbling. Measures were taken to ensure the injury didn't recur, for instance, whilst returning from the injury he was trained to fall in a particular way and to avoid falling on the injured shoulder. I believe from this point, Duff lost confidence and seemed to lose the power facet of his game. Shortly after, Joe Cole was preferred and the following summer he left the club for Newcastle. At whilst at Newcastle, though he has played reasonably well, has failed to preproduce the same form at Blackburn and his early days at Chelsea. If anyone knows anything more in depth about the injury, such as which side and for how long he was out, it would make an interesting point to the article. Bobbyfletch85 20:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dubious Information

Caps and goal figures in the article likely contain European cup/Domestic cup data in addition to Domestic League data (this is very certain based on this user's previous edits containing similar information [1]. Please correct this issue and leave a note here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alfmaster#Footballers.27_European_goals, to warn this person about putting improper information on Wikipedia. --Palffy 21:18, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Corrected. SteveO 19:12, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Shirt number

Has Damien Duff officially got the number 11 shirt? Last check, in the matches against Lillestrom, James Milner had the 11 shirt.

[edit] no.11 shirt

Well he's listed on the official club site at no.11 so one presumes that no.11 will be the shirt he will get once the season starts proper....?

Yes it is Bababoum 21:10, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Taking the mick

"His favorite food is a carrot stick dipped in Ranch salad dressing. Damien loves tossing salad." Surely that's a joke? Damien loves tossing? 203.198.57.190 (talk) 06:21, 14 May 2008 (UTC)fan

Tossing Salad is a reference to anilingus Spudbynight (talk) 10:07, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

[edit] appearances

appearances for blackburn are 184 not 185!!! --Exorcist90 (talk) 16:46, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Photo

Can anyone charge a photo that shows Damien Duff at Chelsea? --79.31.1.151 (talk) 21:27, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Blackburn

This is missing his Blackburn career. Probably lost in the page history --We9fud (talk) 20:58, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
