Leeds game
[edit]I deleted the details of the Leeds match as irrelevant in a biography of Chopra's career, even though as a City fan I agreed with most of it! Pennywisepeter 10:34, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Named in the Indian squad???
[edit]Under the International career section, it says that he's been named in the Indian squad to face Qatar in a friendly in July 2011. Never read that elsewhere. The citation is not about this piece of 'news', it talks about the much older story of Chopra expressing his desire to play for India! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.61.23.167 (talk) 13:34, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

[edit]- Peer Review
Apparently "lbs" should not have the "s"
- I am assuming British Spelling and will keep that in mind as I review the article
- Copyvio Detector
- Shows "Highly Unlikely" at a max of 28% so we're good there
- Disambig Links

Source 41 is dead- Replaced

The following sources have a change to the url from the original, you may want to consider updating them to prevent future link rot. Looks like BBC changed how their website was working at some point after these sources were added4, 5, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 33, 36, 39, 40, 42, 45, 57, 60, 62, 65, 64, 66, 59, 74, 81, 79, 75, 77, 82, 86, 85
- I dont think any alteration is required. RRD13 দেবজ্যোতি (talk) 09:05, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- Since that was a suggestion only that's not a problem for the GA review.
More to come, sources, images are next on my check list. MPJ-US 23:24, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

Sources
[edit]What is the Reliable source status of the following sites
soccerbase.comfootball-league.co.uksoccerway.com
- We consider non user generated sites like soccerway and soccerbase as reliable sources. Rarely are any mistakes or discrepencies are found. Soccerbase covers entire British football system, and additionally Soccerway covers leagues of countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, India. Most of the GAs use them (ex Hatem Ben Arfa, Michael Ingham, Nuno Mendes (footballer), Paul Robinson (footballer, born 1979), Neville Southall, Josh Walker, Fernando Torres, Mathieu Valbuena. Ryan Burge and even FA like Thierry Henry). Soccerbase is very reliable for England and Scottish leagues. RRD13 দেবজ্যোতি (talk) 09:29, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- Looking at the various GAs I am satisfied with those souces.

- "3–1 win away to Slovakian side Dubnica" - I am not sure what this sentence is trying to express
Done Europa League is played on a two leg basis, the two teams play both in each of the team's home. So away here means match was played in Slovakian side's home ground.RRD13 দেবজ্যোতি (talk) 17:59, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
