I doubt you need to cite unless you're saying something contentious that could get you in trouble. It's mainly an opinion piece.

I've added a Players that Shook the World page that summarises it, let me know if people want to add things or anything. Also edited the about page a bit so it comes off less cringey (hopefully).
Haven't had time to have a wank lately never mind work on the Lampard piece (wayheyyyy) so if anyone has one ready to go then lemme know.

Can confirm I'm useless at writing.
Got about half way through, realised I'd written about 1000 words and its was just a chronological run down of his career and boring as fuck to read.
May give it another go once I've read what some others have done and the style they use but I don't think I could do it justice by just saying what goals of his I loved and in trying to summarise his career go too far the other way into stats and figures.

Everyone's harshest critic is themselves though. I'm sure it's not too bad.

I've the barebones of my Lampard one, I don't want to rush it but I'd like to get a post up soon before this falls by the wayside again. If there's nobody else that wants to submit the first one I'll probably flesh it out over the weekend and get it up by Sunday night (so many innuendos there)

I'm not looking for any particular length (wayheyyyy)
Honestly just whatever people feel comfortable with it's not like I'm grading these things. Obviously something substantial enough but it doesn't have to be thousands of words long. I also have no issue with articles that turn into listing stats like @djed mentioned his Henry one was kind of turning into.
And I also don't mind if someone isn't happy with their entry having a look and helping edit it or whatever

May go for a complete change of tact and just describe his key moments as I remember them.

May go for a complete change of tact and just describe his key moments as I remember them. That's kind of what I'm trying to do with Lampard, focussing on the year he finished runner up to Ronaldinho in the World Player of the Year. Not sure if it'll end up exactly how I want it to but yeah. It's also how I thought I'd do a Roy Keane one (if I ever got round to it). Focus on his one man mission type performances (v Juve, v Holland)
