Xavi appeared in his panties after El Clasico.

We’re sure some other stuff happened too, but nothing else was as important or fascinating as that.

Sergio Ramos & Lara Alvarez: Roman Rendezvous

Sergio knows just how much of a burden being pretty can really be. We’re lucky we’re so plain. Images via Hola! magazine.

Sergio Ramos and Lara Alvarez were papped being all cutesy in Rome over the holidays – cutesy like how Zac Effron and Vanessa Hudgens used to be during their ‘High School Musical’ days prior to Vanessa’s nude photos being splashed all over the internet.

Sometimes, after one too many whiskey sours, we like to sit back and have a think about a much different kind of Sergio Ramos. In our dreams, he always plays the role of a rough and ready night rider with a mean shirtless streak and a fondness for corner restaurant booths upholstered in rabbit fur.

How about you, Kickettes? Assuming your minds wander off at all sorts of times during your days too, what kind of character void do you most often dream about The Ramos fulfilling?

Congrats to Sevilla striker and Spanish international, Alvaro Negredo, who took advantage of the winter holidays to wed his girlfriend Clara Tapia at the El Salvador church in Sevilla. The bride looked beautiful in her dress with a gorgeous lace veil and the groom looked incredibly hot, which is really unfair since he’s officially off the market.

Alvaro Negredo with his mom on his wedding day in SevillaSevilla hometown boy The Ramos was among the family, friends and teammates in attendance, and if anyone has a picture please send it over so we can see what he wore.

We’ve come to find that the Sevilla boys have a flair for the dramatic when it comes to their wedding videos. Following in teammate Jesus Navas’ footsteps, the couple hired the same company to film their nuptials and you can watch it here.

Congrats (and Happy Belated B-day to the most Gingerific man in La Liga) you crazy kids! Image Credit: Vanitatis.com.

While the global footy community is full of hot and heavy, high profile relationships, not all of them are as wonderful and easy going for us to cover as Xabi and Nagore’s is.

And whaddya know, at least 2,000 of our loyal Kickettes agree! With the largest majority of votes in all of the polls we’ve ever published, please give a good-looking standing ovation for Mr & Mrs Xabi Alonso of Real Madrid, 2011′s Football Power Couple of The Year.

We thought long and hard about how to thank our faithful band of soldier boys and girls for their support this year. Among the management proposals vetoed by the staff were:

  1. Spending the money set aside for the party season bar bills/lawyers fees on a couture outfit for each and every one of you, with the balance to be contributed towards the search for Fernando Torres’ mojo.
  2. A party at Kickette Island to which you would all be invited.
  3. A fly-on-the-wall documentary about the Kickette office, our staff and how we work. It would probably directed by Nick Broomfield, who we recently learned is good at handling ‘difficult’ women.

However, this year we learned that we’re more alcohol dependant, selfish and concerned about people finding out what we actually do all day than we thought. The upshot is, your gift is the above picture of Sergio Ramos, shirtless from Real Madrid’s recent Copa Del Rey match.

His hotness is about the only thing we all agree on.
