I thought I'd post a pic collection of some of my favourites from around the world. This is by no means all of them, because I haven't included any from Germany or Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, etc. It's only a random sample.
Starting in England, this is Franco di Santo, who plays for Wigan Athletic. Franco is from Argentina. :P

More pics of Franco. This one knocked my socks off. Worth staring at for many reasons. No. 1 is probably trying to figure out just WHAT is going on????
And yeah, Franco used to play for Chelsea...

Ahhh...ermmmmm...

Let's switch to Spain now. This is Leo Ponzio, who used to play for River Plate and is...wait for it...Argentine.



These guys are Javi Martinez, Ander Herrera and Iker Muniain of Athletic Bilbao.

And a few pics of Javi Martinez and Fernando Llorente.





Javi posing for an underwear ad...

Fernando...ahhhh...ermmmmm...

These guys are with Atletico Madrid. (Eduardo is Argentine, Falcao is Colombian and Silvio is Portuguese.)
Eduardo Salvio


Falcao

Posing for a Puma ad.





Silvio

Moving to Colombia, and my favourite team, Junior of Barranquilla, here is Carlos Bacca.



Moving on to Mexico, this is Carlos Orrantia from the U-20 team, and plays for Pumas UNAM.



Gerardo Flores, who used to play for Atlas, but is now with Cruz Azul.





Joel Huiqui, used to be with Cruz Azul, but is now with Monarcas Morelia.






Omar Arellano of Chivas Guadalajara




Ulises Davila, who plays for Club America


Dayro Moreno, a Colombian international who plays for Tijuana (nicknamed Xoloitzcuintles...I LOVE that name!)


Moving to Italy...
Pablo Osvaldo of AS Roma (born in Argentina!)


Marcelo Estigarribia of Juventus (born in Paraguay!)

Mario Yepes of AC Milan (born in Colombia!)

Okay, that's all for now. By no means ALL the players I like, but just a random sampling. I needed an excuse to post the pretty pics. XD

Date: 2011-12-11 06:54 pm (UTC)Falcao... "yummy" is all I can say.
Gerardo Flores looks like he's family with the Banegas... O_o
no subject
Date: 2011-12-11 08:40 pm (UTC)Falcao is incredible-looking. He takes my breath away. O_O
OMG..LOL! You are right about Gerardo Flores! And come to think...Ever Banega has more of a 'Mexican' look than an Argie, IMO. Hahahaha.
Thanks for your comment! Doing fangirl picspams is fun! XD

Date: 2011-12-12 05:51 am (UTC)Hahaha, I don't know if Éver looks more Mexican or Argie but when I saw Gerardo, I first thought it's Cesar, Éver's bro....
And I love commenting on your fangirl picspams! :P

JOELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Marcelo looks very shitty in black and white :(
no subject
Date: 2011-12-13 11:34 am (UTC)Carlos Orrantia is such a little sweetie...but I love MOST of the cute boys from the U-20 team.♥
When I found some really niiiiiiceeeee pics of Joel, I had to post them! ;P
Poor Marcelo. He does look somewhat diminished in the b&w colour, but he IS doing VERY well there, and Juve is on top of the league, thanks to Marcelo's help. :/

Date: 2011-12-16 03:59 pm (UTC)LOVE THE ATHLETIC PICS!!! :D I'd seen them all but it clearly doesn't hurt to see them again! XD SO MUCH AWESOME. :D
Those pics of Falcao doing the Puma ad are gorgeous. Mmmmm.
nicknamed Xoloitzcuintles...
MAJOR BONUS POINTS FOR THIS AWESOME NICKNAME! XD
Wasn't Osvaldo the guy who hit a teammate? XD (I know, it's probably not something to laugh about, but I can't help it, it amuses me!)
Marcelo Estigarribia
My Basquedar just went off as I read that name. O_O Do you know if he has Basque ancestry? (Also, I think he's pretty! :D)

Date: 2011-12-17 10:46 am (UTC)That pic of Franco Di Santo with JT almost made me wet myself. I mean, there is just SO MUCH 'before and after' subtext in it and I could stare at it for hours and never have it quite figured out. ;)
OMG, as soon as I discovered Tijuana's nickname was Xoloitzcuintles, they had me forever. XDDDDDDDDD
OMFG, YES, Pablo Osvaldo punched his fellow Argentine and pretty boy Erik Lamela IN THE FACE during training a couple of weeks ago, and got suspended for one game. I would DIE to know the details, and a potential fic idea has been swirling around in my head for far too long since then. ;P
Marcelo Estigarribia is from Paraguay and plays for the NT. Even though he has his own website, it doesn't say anything there about Basque roots, so I asked him that question at the site. I'll let you know if it gets answered. ;) LOL @ your 'Basquedar'! It's quite possible that he has Basque ancestry, with that name. (I think he's pretty too!) XDDDDD
