2. How passionately he plays every game, how charitable he is, the fashion lols, how he is always smiling, how much he cares for his family and friends.
3. While he isn't actually playing in this photo it's my favorite on field one because its the culmination of all the work he has done out there; and he uses this moment to comfort a friend. perfectio.

4. How was this not going to be it? Do I even need to explain why?

Because I had to.
Date: 2010-09-07 06:18 am (UTC)even if he's currently: a) playing for Schalke (and apparently doing badly) b) no longer on the German NT and c) balding2. He's amazingly well-spoken and I don't feel like I can truly put into words why I will forever like him (despite all his recent shortcomings) but I love his friendship with Sebastian Kehl, his intelligence, the foundation he has for aiding children in education, everything he was for the German NT in WC2002 and WC2006, and the fact that he played for Real Madrid from 07-10, even if he was injury-plagued for most of his time in Madrid.
Plus, he's tall, dark, and handsome -- and I'm a sucker for guys like that. ;)
3.
4. Too many to choose from, so have an impromptu picspam
5. He had a child out of wedlock... with ex-NT teammate Marcell Jansen's ex-girlfriend.

ERRR. LOOK. Sexy handsome hairporn. Also, intelligent, decent, super sweet. A bit too sweet sometimes, in fact. Very variable player, left back, center back, defensive midfield. Not constant enough, though. he can rock a match or just fail.
3. Your favorite picture/moment of them on the field.
Happy after scoring!
4. Your favorite picture/moment of them off the field.
This is random, but my selection at work is limited :/

3. (it's the moment I became a fan)
4.
5.
He likes to hang around with rapper Bushido (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushido_(rapper)), who has a tunesian father and a german mother like Sami. Bushido wrote the songcalled "Fackeln im Wind" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkgpzOQxsW0) (torches in the wind) for the german national team for the world cup tournament.

This evil word "choose" ;P
After so many great players have been covered, I just take the guy that has troubled me the most in recent times and make my own "feel good post" about him ;)
I haven't religiously followed the Bundesliga, but a few players/teams got my interest and he's def. on that list:
1. The name of one of your favorite players.
Swedish qt Markus Rosenberg
2. Why are they a favorite of yours?
His smile is infectious, he seems down to earth, friendly, adorable, when he has a good phase he's a good striker, his up and downs have anchored him in my heart
3. Your favorite picture/moment of them on the field.
pic: Cuddling ;)
moment:
well I choose his good-bye (at least for 1 year) present for Werder.
CL quali against Sampdoria Genua, Werder got their ass kicked - striker Sandro bled on his shirt and had to wait for a new one, so the (after a bad season) bench warming Rosi came on the pitch and saved them literally in the last minute into overtime with his goal *happy bouncing*
Just the usual nerve-wrecking Werder-crazyness ;P
Difficult to find a good vid, so I at least choose the one with added Marko Marin *g*
He's number 9, goal around 1:45
The shirtless scene was def. too short ;P , so:
4. Your favorite picture/moment of them off the field.
(klicky for bigger pic)
moment:
couldn't embed, but cute short interview :--> ;D (3 years old but smiley!adorable!Rosi never gets old ;P ) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqXhs9NCGjQ/)
5. Favorite random fact!
Got a little daughter named Izabella this april. :)
Not any fav. but: was apparently in the same youth team as Zlatan. ;)
Now get your shit together Rosi and show how amazing you can be, good luck and all the best <3
Re: Swedish qt needs some love ;)
From:Wandering down Arsenal's memory lane
Date: 2010-09-07 08:58 am (UTC)1. The name of one of your favorite players.
Jens Lehmann aka Mad Jens
2. Why are they a favorite of yours?
Because he is one of the most colorful and entertaining players in football ever. And he was one of Arsenal's best goalkeepers.
3. Your favorite picture/moment of them on the field.
Arsenal:
Germany (World Cup 2006 against Argentina):
4. Your favorite picture/moment of them off the field.
5. Favorite random facts!
He once appeared to take a pee break during a match.
His explanation: "I wear a cup made out of plastic, and something wasn't quite right with it. Afterwards I could definitely move better."
He knows karate:
He has written an autobiography called 'Der Wahnsinn liegt auf dem Platz'!
His fashion sense can be tragic....
...but sometimes, he gets it right.
He is an actor!

Date: 2010-09-07 10:24 am (UTC)I don't have one favorite player, I don't think there is one player in this world that is the ultimate best but there are many really good players who are also decent persons.
I'm also not a Spain stan but somehow lots of them deserve individual attention.
So here goes :
1.Classy,BAMF/GQMF on and off the field Xabi . I swear this man,just like Xavi and Iniesta,I would never guess they were football players if I just saw them on the street or something.
2.Yoann because he is talented and beautiful
3. Gerrard cause he's an amazing team player,very loyal and hard working and also a GQMF
4.Cannavaro because he was one of the most amazing,loyal,talented players the world has ever seen and his adorable/sexy self can light up a room(too bad he's so tiny).
here,have some pretty boy toys to look at along with Canna's fine self
5.Kaka because....oh so many reasons,he's Kaka,look at that face and then watch him play,it's enough

Date: 2010-09-07 10:46 am (UTC)RONALDINHO!
2) He is my favourite because following his progress got me into watching Barca and AC Milan, he personified Joga Bonito, and he just changed world football forever and I owe him tons. It is just a PLEASURE to watch him. Love him or hate him I cant think of anyone who can not respect him.
3) Oh God where to start, as Ray Hudson says "as electrifying as a hairdryer in a bathtub"
ohhh my god. dream line up. what a bunch of players. vai brasil!
3) His Nike ads.
and his dancing skills haha
AAAH. you will never get another like him. ever. He just brings spirit and love to the sport and its so fun to watch him.

From:I KNOW IM LATE BUT IDC
Date: 2010-09-07 10:51 am (UTC)Okay, i have a LOT if favorite players, really, so this is gonna be quite hard to choose. Basically, every single Arsenal players is on my list of fav players but i gotta admit there is one who will always be special for me, and it's Andrey Arshavin.
2. Why are they a favorite of yours?
Well, Arshavin is my favorite footballer of all times. I mean, i'm not a football freak for a long time (since Euro08 really) and even though i've always loved NT football, and didnt care much about the players, yknow. I just...followed the tournaments, cheered for some NTand that was it. But since Euro08 we can really say that i fell into club football. That's when i found out about Arsenal and Arshavin. I immediatly loved the club and the whole team, but he has that thing that makes him special and well, i can't really explain why i love him so much. Maybe because he's a freaking genius, and no one is like him, and he's so fun and cute even tho he can be such a prick sometimes xD
3. Your favorite picture/moment of them on the field.
4. Your favorite picture/moment of them off the field.
this one
or maybe this one (i love his hair)
well, i can't choose, really
5. Favorite random fact!
HE ALWAYS LISTENS TO HIS MOM !!!!
and he doesnt have strings in his wardrobe xD

Date: 2010-09-07 02:02 pm (UTC)1. The name of one of your favorite players.
THOMAS MULLER
2. Why are they a favorite of yours?
are you even serious.
thomas muller is awesome. he is like 15 years old and (or 20 whatever) and he decimates people. WHOLE TEAMS, actually. thomas muller looks like a puppy dog, but one that breathes fire and gnaws on the bones of the players he's destroyed.
3. Your favorite picture/moment of them on the field.
every muller goal celebration ever. also, that one time when germany played argentina in the world cup 2010 (remember that?) and muller slayed.
U MAD MESSI
4. Your favorite picture/moment of them off the field.
thomas muller is never going to leave bayern.
thomas muller has a really cute wife. and yeah, they still behave like they're in seventh grade. matching heart necklaces? check. goofy pictures where they're making a pretzel into a heart shape? check.
(this picture is also what you find under the definition of "typical germans")
5. Favorite random fact!
one time, there was this press conference. diego maradona was there and so was muller. maradona thought muller was the ball boy. thomas muller was not even bovvered, and later handed argentina their asses so fast they didn't even know what happened.
he is also probably a vampire.
in short, the correct answer to "who is your god now" is "THOMAS MULLER"

Date: 2010-09-07 02:16 pm (UTC)2. Owen is a very nice person, he is shy and never tries to show off. If talk about football, he is a good player. But his fucking injuries kill me. He can play even defender if he is told to. He is gorgeous, hot and has a touching sad face and curky hair.
3.
4. Your favorite picture/moment of them off the field.
5. Random fact... Probably the one that he is getting older and should marry someone?
Or maybe that he loves NBA and supports Phoenix Suns

2. He's just got such an adorable, boyish smile and I love his badass (tattoo artist) side. And, of course, he has one hell of a left foot on him.

4.
Both their expressions crack me up, to be honest.
5. He owns two restuarants in Liverpool (which I want to visit, but goddamnit they are off the beaten track. Need to learn to drive, damnit).

Date: 2010-09-07 06:01 pm (UTC)1. The name of one of your favorite players.
Zinedine FUCKING AWESOME Zidane
2. Why are they a favorite of yours?
Did I have to say why? He is awesome! I don't know every time I have saw him playing I felt something really awesome that I can't explain! He will always be my favorite player, I like many others player too but he will always be the one for me, because only him made me felt like that whem I saw him playing. I even forgot about Brazil losing the final at 98 for France, and now I'm happy that Brazil lose that final (I'm brazilian), and at 06 I was secretaly cheering for France in the BrazilxFrance game :X

Date: 2010-09-07 10:59 pm (UTC)2. He embodies Barça. He's not particularly fast, but I love how he maintains possession of the ball. He really knows how to control the midfield.
3. I'll just post this because it never stops being hilarious to me. SHIT WAS ABOUT TO GO DOWN. Not really.
4. I really love his baby pics, but I'm fond of this one because of the lighting. Oh, and he's sleeping with a ball. It's ~dedication.
5. He loves The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air lol.
