More footballers

Okay since Arsenal were playing Valencia, I thought might tempt those unconverted to the true football with a few pics.
Valencia
My poor bloody nosed Kily first - http://212.4.96.248/images/jugadores/KILY%20GONZALEZw.jpg
(The bloody nose was at the World Cup, and since he got it playing for a team I dislike, it says something about him that he's still one of my favourites. Liked him anyway, but playing on got extra smiles from me.)
Pablo Aimar, or the next Maradona if you buy into the hype. Good player either way. http://212.4.96.248/images/jugadores/AIMARw.jpg
And now for Ayala, the best defender playing at the minute (and no, whatever his team's results, that is a statement of fact.) http://212.4.96.248/images/jugadores/AYALAw.jpg
Now for the Arsenal (quite when they picked up the definite article is beyond me)
I would post a picture of Robert Pires, seeing as he is now well again, and plays a good game, but sadly his face is suffering an outbreak of face fuzz, that rivals Jericho's in it's awfulness so I'm not going to.
Dennis Bergkamp, responsible for at least one of my 'net aliases, and generally one of the greatest players I have ever seen. Want to know what great is to me, when me and my friends discuss goals he scored 5 years ago, with reverance and awe, and perfect recall. That was his golden year and I have honestly never seen anyone play better.

And of course he was also in the Reebok adverts, which are rivalled only by the recent Nike ones for sheer goodness. The plot was basically, what would footballers have ended up doing if they hadn't been given Reebok boots at a young age. Bergkamp ended up as a cheesemaker, Schmeichel was a pig farmer (which had me in hysterics) and Andy Cole was a fish and chips shop worker.
And a recent youth team graduate.
