Post World Cup non-glory, some of our favourite English lads have headed off to spend time with their significant others. What else do we have now but to judge their apparel?

In London, Frank Lampard left his Chelsea flat (with g/f Christine Bleakley);

In Southport, Captain Steven Gerrard had lunch at Bistro Verite with his two daughters and wife Alex (she wore clogs. Soz. Had to mention); and

In France, David Beckham headed to Bargemon to be with Victoria and their three boys.

Which of the back-to-reality boys gets your vote for the best style-whilst-sad look? We think they all look rather good, but it’s hard to out-do Becks when it comes to casual cute.

Marco Borriello and Andrea Pirlo arrive for Italian National team training; they’re plaid and they’re fabulous.

- Australian gossip rag Famous alleges that a UK newspaper is investigating stories from three WAGabees who are claiming to have hooked up with David Beckham. Meep!

- Fernando Torres brought baby Nora to Paza del Monasterio de Aciveiro for her christening. Wife Olalla brought some bad-arse Louboutins and an excellent bitchface.

- Cheryl Cole rolled up in Cannes for the Outside of the Law premiere and looked fantabulous in her white Versace bandage dress. Rumours (aka completely fabricated for reasons we don’t care enough to figure out) continue to swirl about Chezza and Will.i.am being an item.

- Christine Bleakley went to the British Academy Television Craft Awards. Nope, we’ve no idea either. What do you think of her “high fash” dress?

- Like we didn’t already know Sammy Eto’o is ballin’, big boy style. He’s just bought a 10,000+sq ft, €17 million house in Milan’s absolutely-most-exclusive-designer-shopping-on-your-doorstep neighbourhood.

Q: What do Patrice Evra, Carlos Tevez and Oliver Kahn have in common?

Luis Figo’s wife, Helena Svedin is shilling something for Philips. Anti-counterfeit Cash Scanner? Mouse hairdryer? Electric Figofied Chest-Hair Softener? No clue.

Having spent the last few weeks knee deep in scandalous stories about footballers & their myriad indiscretions (hell on the Louboutins, as you can imagine), its’s a relief to be able to bring you a post full of merriment and good cheer.

*Crickets*

Okay, some good cheer. And possibly a little snark. Just a wee bit. Hope you don’t mind.

Roque

Strength, Kickettes.

Would you have enough of it to date a man that looked like this?

We aren’t sure we could deal with the constant karate-chopping of skanks and skallywags out of the way, nor the continual sounds of people falling down blind in the streets as the two of you stroll past… But we’d sure like to try.

Were you watching? For those in a non-footy environment, we offer our condolences. Trying to explain to randoms why you are excited, flushed and hitting refresh on your computer every 40 nanoseconds can be stressful.

Note: Charlize Theron is forever banned from this site. Her jokes during tense moments made us stabby.

There’s nothing bigger or better than the World Cup, folks. We’re nearly there. And with 6 months to go, you still have plenty of time to plan an “emergency” that will require you to take June/July off of work.

How are you feeling about the draw results (full list below)?

We’re a little freaked by England drawing USA in Group C and sympathize for the hosts getting a tough line up. And oh, mercy, Portugal and Brazil?

Okay, we have to stop talking about it. Time to pre-book our therapist.
