Manchester United: Rocking Their New Kits

By: Lotte Cox | Comments Add Comments

Rio Ferdinand wants you all to know that he thinks United’s new kits are fierce as hell, and suggests you think the same, whether or not a certain Portuguese is wearing them. We don’t know about you, but we’re not going to argue.

More Rio after the jump, along with Rooney, Evra, Park, van der Sar, and the dark horse, Ben Foster. (Loading will be slow, but worth it — click most of the images for HQ versions.)

Karim Benzema: Welcome to Madrid!

By: Lotte Cox | Comments Add Comments

As everyone has no doubt heard, Karim Benzema packed up his stuff and moved from Lyon to Real Madrid yesterday, throwing his hat into the ring (GEDDIT?) for a regular spot in the New Galacticos™.

How do you think they’ll decide which of their zillion attackers will get to start? Rock, Scissors, Paper? Duels? Asking Raul?

Federico Balzaretti: Criminally Overlooked

By: Lotte Cox | Comments 2 Comments

You may remember Federico Balzaretti from this post, in which he helped Palermo youngsters with difficult things like tying ties. But, as evidenced by the above picture, he’s more than capable of standing on his own, without cocky punks like Simon Kjaer cramping his style. Click to see Balza in all his HQ, scruffy, David Bowie-resembling glory.

Pierluigi Casiraghi: Another One For the Hot Coaches File

By: Lotte Cox | Comments 1 Comment

His tactics may sometimes be dodgy, but Italy’s U21 coach Pierluigi Casiraghi looks so good that we tend to get distracted when we try to question his decisions.

An Enthusiastic Greeting for Roberto Soldado

By: Lotte Cox | Comments Add Comments

Roberto Soldado, it appears, has made Getafe fans very happy indeed.

What’s that? You say where you are it’s a crime to greet people who have pleased you by groping them and trying to take their clothes? Why, where’s the fun is that?

Jérémy Clément: Young, Pretty, and Proud of his Nipples

By: Lotte Cox | Comments Add Comments

This is Jérémy Clément. He plays for PSG and, despite appearances, is actually an old man of 24 rather than a child of 17. Based on this photoshoot, he also seems to be the physical manifestation of the word “twink.” Not that there’s a damn thing wrong with that, of course.

Tim Cahill: Always Fashion Conscious

By: Lotte Cox | Comments Add Comments

Whether he’s playing for Everton or qualifying for the World Cup with Socceroos, Tim Cahill knows labels are important: Check the Armani waistband he carefully displayed during Australia’s postgame celebrations over the weekend. Well done, sir — expect that fee from the Armani office soon.

Two more of the Armani-pimping (oh, and the shirtlessness) after the jump.

ETA: Cahill’s also the man of the hour over at Kickette, so go take a gander at him not wearing his Everton kit when you’re done here.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic: Melting Hearts (And Other Parts)

By: Lotte Cox | Comments 7 Comments

You may not have heard, but Inter celebrated their 17th Scudetto last weekend with a 4-3 win over Atalanta (two goals by Zlatan), and the traditional parade of small children (two sons by Zlatan). The Swede himself celebrated the former by taking off his clothes and flexing, and the latter by being so adorable even the hardest of hard men were heard cooing at the pictures.

Further evidence of both after the jump.

Eric Abidal: Fooballer + Model

By: Lotte Cox | Comments 7 Comments

A Champions League winner’s medal isn’t enough for Barcelona’s Eric Abidal — not by a long shot. He’s also working on a modeling career and, based on the above image, it looks very promising, at least in the area of underwear and/or nakedness. Plus, there’s an added bonus in modeling for Abidal: Red cards are very, very rare.

More from his (disappointingly clothing-heavy) portfolio for your evaluation under the jump.

Ogling Bojan Krkic is Very, Very Wrong

By: Lotte Cox | Comments 6 Comments

It’s just that, well. It’s awfully difficult to look away sometimes, isn’t it?
