David Villa: Calendar Boy

DV 3

While our projected 2010 horoscopes aren’t bringing much excitement, David Villa’s newest calendar shots are motivating us to hang tight until sunny, soul-patchless August comes around.

Some top-line thoughts on the four months-worth we’ve got our eager hands on:

1. He should always pose shirtless. And play shirtless;

2. We enjoy seeing David smile once a year. We thought all we needed was the bitchface. We were wrong;

3. If his left hand was rubbing his belly,  wouldn’t he look like the ‘pregnant man’ on the calendar’s cover? We find this compelling.

Valencia ladies – be sure to share the wealth and fork over any of the other months so we can also put these Villa calendar pics in a safe spot: our photobucket albums/under our pillows/in our Voodoo Make A Villa kits.

Xabi Alonso: The Ex Returns

Xabier Alonso and wife Nagore

Xabi Alonso in the stands at Anfield! Don’t lie, you fangirled when you saw him.

After being given 2 days off after the Valencia win, the former Liverpool player showed up to watch the game against Arsenal. And he had his wife Nagore in tow, too.

Let it be known, ‘Pool fans, most Real Madrid players use their 2 day breaks to visit family or to go home. Case in point: The Mummy-and-me outfits Ronaldo and his mum wore while out to dinner this weekend. The fact that Xabi popped up back in town speaks volumes, we think.

He’s like that ex-boyfriend you say you’re completely over but yet can’t stop squawking about to anyone with a pulse. He’s like the crush you swear you’re done with until he incorrectly calls you the wrong name (which is okay because the fact he even acknowledges you gives you false hope that you two *WILL* share a holiday house in the south of France one day.)

Stay strong.  Side note: For airport stalkers, he’s headed back to Madrid today.

Awkward

T’was a wonderful footy weekend involving grown men touching each other. Personal space on the pitch was at a premium, with many guys showering affection unto each other. Some of it was hot. Some of it was not.

Has words

For two action-packed days, we bore witness to uninvited cheek-to-cheek action (Bobby Zamora, Fulham; David Nugent, Burnley), in-yo-face lecturing (Daniel Agger & Steven Gerrard, Liverpool; The Ref; Andrey Arshavin, Arsenal) and earlobe caressing (Diego De Ascentis, Atalanta).

EarlobesWhich groping was uncomfortable and which TLC was much appreciated – by us at least? We’re so glad you asked…
